Still no word on my computer :(
Weekend was ok, got to drive around in Grant's new Audi A4. It's really hot. He was supposed to fly to Orlando at 7 pm on Thursday; clearly that didn't happen. So Friday we drove out to the Hamptons, had a disappointingly bad meal at the Lobster Roll (maybe because of the blackout? But I don't know why that would affect mussels & steamers & softshell crabs, hm). Saturday night we had dinner at the Terrace in the city. It was my father's birthday; meanwhile my father got stuck in Boston because the shuttle was delayed for 4 hours due to "weather" at LGA. Weather my ass. I checked accuweather. There was no "weather" at LGA or elsewhere - apaprently the pilot told them LGA was closed. Meanwhile I sat there watching flights take off and land. ehhhh well.
Dinner was excellent, although the foie gras appetizer seemed to use a terrine grade foie gras (it was awfully large and veiny) - but it was good nonetheless - they also felt the need to tell us that "We are out of sweetbreads. They went bad." I really didn't need to know that they went bad.... The lobster appetizer was tough... besides that everything besides the service was excellent. And they tried hard with the service.
Went to my mom's house and we watched some old strawberry shortcake videos and did a strawberry shortcake dance out on the terrace of the Terrace. We're having a party! An international party!!
Sunday night we drove over to the dwontown in Farmingdale and caught Nancy opening for Mike McDonald (is that his name? The doobie brothers guy?) - it's always nice to go there because we're always on the guest list! Yay! I also have a pair of comp tickets to Zebra, the Motley Crue tribute band, if anyone wants them....
