2010 - Day Twelve

Katie and I met for dinner at the Bowery Wine Bar in the East Village. It was a lot of fun as always. The reason I chose this place is because they had an awesome appetizer that had hummus, guacamole and salsa. I am pretty to please obviously.

MONDAY DINNER!! Amanda cooked dinner tonight and we had tilapia, wild rice, tomato, asparagus and a little wine. And don't forget the bread and butter. It was a success.

2010 - Day 10

Whoa, what a day! I was in Brooklyn from 11 AM - 11 PM. It turned out to be a great day though. Despite the fact that my Packers lost, even after they rallied to tie the score at 45-45 and the Cardinals missed a giveme field goal. We ended up fumbling in overtime. It was tragic. However, I was consoled by going over to Tammy and Eric's for dinner. They even waited until 8:30 PM to get to eat with Karen and me. What a day!

2010 - Day Nine

My aunt, Dorothy, sent me an e-mail asking if I had seen the billboard of President Obama that was printed in Times Square without his permission. Thinking about it I couldn't even remember the last time that I had been to Time Square for anything. So I made a pit stop in Time Square while running errands and took this picture of the controversial billboard.

2010 - Day Eight

This is my favorite street on my way back from work every day. They have all the trees wrapped up in Christmas lights and it seems just like a canopy. When I took the picture the woman walking next to me told me that she always chooses to walk home on this street as well. She also told me that last year only half of the trees were lit because of an electrical problem. Who knew?

2010 - Day Seven

It is beginning to look a lot less like Christmas. However, the trees on Park Avenue are all still lit and they look beautiful. Especially since I actually got out of work at 5 PM today and did not have to walk to whole way home in pitch darkness.

2010 - Day Six

About a year and a half ago, I joined a Book Club with my friend Kumi. It has become something that I look forward to monthly. I have made some great friends and it is always a guarenteed good time. This month, we read South of Broad by Pat Conroy. We all really enjoyed the book, but it is a little out there. Way too many storylines. We all agreed that if we had it to do over we would have meet once a week this month instead, and discussed each section of the book. Here's my book club with some new friends at a karaoke bar!
