Sister Visit

My sister Elizabeth flew in from Nashville on Friday night for a nice little visit. Saturday we headed into Hoboken for my baby shower. My girlfriends planned a lovely, lovely get together and Devon did a fabulous job hosting!  I promise more on that soon.  :o)  That evening we sat by the fire at home, had sushi takeout (not long until I can have tuna and other raw fish again), and headed to Bloomfield for Warren's 30th birthday party. Sunday morning E and I ventured into the city for a full day. We decided to head up to Central Park to see what it looked like all covered in snow.




It sure was pretty!  Next we ventured into the Plaza Hotel and then walked down 6th Avenue with a coffee in hand.  We made our way to 42nd St to check out the matinee, The Importance of Being Earnest.  It was really funny and very well done.  E loved it.  Then we tried to find a place to grab a refreshment, and ended up at Pershing Square.  We took the subway down to Bleeker Street and walked east on Houston to the restaurant WD-50.  E had seen it on Top Chef and wanted to try it.  We met up with Pat and Maura and Mike for an amazing dinner there.  The food and service was definitely some off the best I've ever had.  A very memorable meal!  Also, we were seated next to the band The Black Keys which is pretty cool.  Today E and I slept in, visited more and then went for a day of shopping.  First stop: Babies R Us to buy our glider - the last item needed for our nursery.  Then we went to Bergen Town Center where we hit up Nordstrom Rack, Century 21 and a few other places, including Bobby's Burger Palace for lunch, yum yum.  E flew out earlier this evening and it's back to work tomorrow.  Thanks for the great visit E! Love you!

And good work Pat for putting together the glider tonight! xoxo
