But somehow we just didn't venture out there.<br /><br />SV, you should definitely swing by there sometime!<br /><br />Michelle and Rose, thank you! And yes, she was the perfect hostess.<br /><br />Jessica! You don't like Philly, huh? What part did you live? We definitely didn't travel around the whole city; we were pretty localized. I thought the area we were in was just beautiful. I even told Ryan I think it's my 2nd favorite big city now, after NYC...well, it would be a close tie with Chicago maybe. What didn't you like about it?<br /><br />Andrea, fun! We just loved the historic district. There was just TOO much for us to do in 1 1/2 days. We had it on our schedule to do the Ben Franklin stuff, but my daughter fell asleep right after lunch...there was just no way to get around that one. Next time, though. We did do the Congress Hall tour and Independence Hall tour...Liberty Bell...and just walked around a little more than that.<br /><br />Ali, have you said where you live? I can't remember...I'll have to look over to see if you ever say.<br /><br />Annette, I KNEW I was forgetting something: veggies with dip and smoothies. Maybe I was feeling guilty about being a troublesome houseguest so I attempted to throw you under the bus ("Well, Annette doesn't eat fruits or veggies!" said in a child-like voice.) to make myself look and feel better. :) And there are many, many husbands who object to their food being changed in any way...that is for sure; it's not just Derek. I was not hungry in the least. That's exactly the kind of food we eat on a daily basis at our house.<br /><br />Michelle (aka: dirtyduck momma), thank you! Thank you for being happy for me. For overlooking your own insane jealousies to feel happy for your friend :)<br /><br />Amber Shea, you have the food preferences of a 10 year old? :) It IS very artistic; I'll give it that. I DO plan on eating at Pure Food and Wine...it's on the list!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11320336368732794711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341590768573601889.post-24910954737578799082010-11-18T19:21:10.138-08:002010-11-18T19:21:10.138-08:00I want to eat potato pizza at Blackbird someday!

Naw...I'd never sneak ribeye into your dinner, though Derek hates it when I try to make our meals healthier with flax seed, wheat flour...you know simple fixes. <br /><br />I do eat more than carrots, apples, and lettuce. I just don't ENJOY it! For fruit, it's the texture...veggies taste. Dips help...and smoothies make all fruit better (texture)...though Derek doesn't let me slip veggies in. <br /><br />It may not have been awesome food while you were here, but at least you weren't hungry...I hope!Annette W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02498639468291720406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341590768573601889.post-4197685858944773672010-11-17T13:34:50.033-08:002010-11-17T13:34:50.033-08:00Looks like you are having a great time.

I especially love the Ben Franklin exhibit, and City Hall, and I've always loved the Franklin Institute. Lots of good places to eat there, too.

My favorite place is Horizons, though - that would be good if you're ever there for a date, or when your kids are older. <br /><br />Hope you are having fun in New York!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14917367078025519399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341590768573601889.post-53059924701004770182010-11-17T10:58:03.963-08:002010-11-17T10:58:03.963-08:00Don't worry, you're not missing the MoFo p...Don't worry, you're not missing the MoFo party!

I almost didn't know how to order from a menu in which everything was veg friendly. I was so overwhelmed I just stood there like a total dunce.

I always worry so much about people like that and try to covertly slip veggies into their food or give them kale chips, which usually wins over almost any veggie-hater. I guess I won't be invited over to Annette's now. Oops.<br /><br />Have fun!bitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07897733975604744859noreply@blogger.com
