Why Oh Why

1st I must explain my lovely friend BC of PS actually introduced me to this song a few years ago. Must say it's sad and creepy - but for some bizarre reason this song cracks me up. In all honesty I had not thought about this song in a long time but I was on youtube looking for a different Dolly Parton song and ran across this video and felt compelled to share and now you say - Why Oh Why did you!

Cheese, Goats, Friends and Fun (not in any particular order)

WOW you say we have not all been together since last July!! Has it really been that long. How I've missed our fun times, shared secrets and lots and lots of giggles!

So why don't we get together and drive 4 hours have some good food, see a goat or 200 and have some laughs.

Tiff and I pack up the car Friday and head to Macon to meet Bobbie - let the fun begin!

1st stop Yoder's Restaurant Montezuma, GA. GREAT food and WONDERFUL pie. Yes we had our vegetables before we had our PIES. Cream corn, mash potatoes, green bean, salad, turnip greens, meatloaf, chicken breast fillets, corn bread, rolls, sweet tea, coffee and did I mention PIE! Apple, Peanut Butter, Chocolate Cream and Shoo-fly.

2nd stop Thomasville, GA Hampton Inn.

3rd stop the breakfast of champions - Chick-fil-a. Nothing says good morning like a good chicken biscuit.

4th stop Sweet Grass Dairy - Dairy tour. We learned about making cheese, milking goats and played with baby goats. I want a goat - if it stays small like a baby goat. But of course Tiff knew that -it's small of course! She can see me now showing you with my hands how small those baby goats were!

5th stop Sweet Grass Dairy - Market Place. Cheese, cheese, cheese and more cheese please. Sample them all we did - OK maybe just me! But I ♥ cheese. We also picked up some jams, jelly, and salami.

6th stop - The Bread Wagon - Amish bakery. Pies, cakes, jam, jelly, butter, ice cream, popcorn, and the list goes on. A little bit of something for everyone.

7th stop downtown Thomasville - for lunch at George & Louie's. Had a lovely lunch outside under the large oak trees.

8th stop gas station and car wash. Bobbie thanks for the wash that was the longest car wash I've ever been in. Guess you would have just had to been there.

Ladies I had a great weekend. Our time together was way too short - as always it keeps me wanting more. I ♥ you! Thanks for being such wonderful friends!!! You are both awesome!!! Here's to many more trips.

OH How I Love You!

W - Loves MeMe the most I believe!

Eating in NYC - Day 4

We really have to get out of this town we are eating way to much and spending way to much money shopping. OK, that might be me spending to much money shopping but BC did make some purchases this trip and I didn't even have to make her - you might have heard the story about the bath robe in Savannah. If not that's a different day and a different blog. Might have to take a trip back in time for that on one day if I ever get caught up.

So this is day 4 July 11th - flight leaves at 2PM so needless to say you will not see pictures of the crap we ate at the airport.

Always best to finish off your trip with a great brunch. Again, why mess with a good thing just mix it up a little.

Bacon and cheese omelet WOW that was some good cheese!! in those Jersey Eggs.

BC had the fried egg sandwich.

We shared the pancakes - we both just wanted a taste. If everything else was that good then you would expect the pancakes to be great - and they did not disappoint.

A view from the street so you know what you are looking for when you go to NYC.

Eating in NYC - Day 3

OK so today we still had a LOT of places left on our list to eat! But some how we still had time (and room) for a snack in the middle of Time Square. Might have had to do with something about BC being ready to pass out from hunger. I just had a snack, because! Plus - I don't let my friends eat alone - that's just what kind of girl I am. July 10th - Day 3.

Why mess with a good thing - just mix it up a little. Not to mention it was down the block right on the corner from our hotel.
Pumpernickel and raisin with butter and jelly. This thing was floating in butter.
@ Ess-a-Bagel

Again forgetting to take a picture before I start eating!
A hot dog from a Central Park cart.

Papaya Juice, Coconut Champagne and a hot dog with the works
@ Gray's Papaya. Let's just say someone didn't eat here as she was still reminded of her previous hot dog.
The coconut champagne as it was called, contained no alcohol by the way, was for my Sister!
Oh and the one that did not eat only had the orange drink and she talked about it for 2 days must have been good :)

Grabbing a snack in Time Square - yes those are plastic lawn chairs in TS. And those might be Sun Chip crumbs on BC's face but they did match her outfit. Maybe she took a picture of my snack - I didn't have one on my camera.

Let's just say it was worth the $3.00 to split this meal. We had this chicken salad BLT and a side of Non-cholesterol fries (be careful if you eat those)
@ Carnegie Deli

And we shared this as dessert number 1 of the evening @ Carnegie Deli

OK here we should have waited 1 hour and 15 minutes before we were going to have to eat again. That plan did not go so well - we only ending up waiting about 20 minutes. NYC is crazy about their per person minimums in restaurants. We would have had to pay $8.95 per person and get one dessert or pay the same amount and try 2 desserts. So that's what happens in NYC when your list of places to eat is way way long.
OH by the way this is a Caramel Sundae
@ Serendipity
It was great.

This was Frozen Hot-Chocolate and it was GREAT as well. Wish I had one now.
