He signed a scholarship to run Cross Country at a smaller but well respected college in SC. He would have preferred one for soccer, but he is still happy with what he accomplished.
That's great Marv. I'm sure you're very proud, and you should be!
I actually meant lunch as opposed to dinner. Lunch is a little more versatile, and you can pick the dining room where you want to sit........but also easily go to some of the other rooms for pictures.
Ah, yes. That's what I'd gathered from reading others' comments and trip reports. Plus, it's less expensive.
I think it was during the Meet in the Dump Shop Rosie trip. Pat has a few different allergies, but most are just a case of knowing what is used in preparation for certain foods. As long as she doesn't have too much of too many of those items in a short period of time, she is usually fine or at least needs to take a Pepcid or something. Well, she has a nice allergy card made and laminated, which usually works well. They saw garlic and mentioned it was on the crust of the chicken she ordered. She told them that would not be an issue, and also that she could have the bread. But when everything came, they would not let her have the bread (gluten maybe...........which she doesn't even have an issue with) and they had taken all the skin off her chicken, even though she said not necessary. So she ended up with skinless (tasteless/spiceless) chicken and some rather bland broccoli, and a different rather bland bread. It was like buying your basic rotisserie chicken, peeling off the skin, and broccoli you could take out of the freezer and cook in the microwave.
Oh, wow. That wouldn't be too much fun...not at these prices. We didn't have an issue. By that point in the trip, Lauren was tired of explaining her pea allergy and just preferred to look out for them on her own. Judy still spoke with the waiters/chefs about her gluten issues, and they usually just pointed out which items on the menu she needed to avoid.
Sorry, not on instagram..........twitter..........or anything like that! Don't want to be, not interested in it. So I appreciate you posting the pictures. Looks like a great time and some wonderful experiences and food, but I really like this picture of you three with the skyline and the ESB in the background!
I get it...not being on Facebook. But I like Instagram.
Thanks!
Basically what he said ^. Not quite sure what the deal was that day, but yes even though I "traffic light" the allergies - red for the can't have, yellow- for those in small amounts and green- for those I test positive to but have little or no reaction to and eat on a regular basis. All that is on the card too but I am learning some chefs don't have a lot of experience with allergies or just don't read. I think the chef may not have wanted to give me French Fries..... so plain broccoli - nothing at all on it and very plain skinless chicken. Not what I was expecting for my French meal.
Ambience is nice, but you still want some good food, for sure!
Yeah, we had some meals where they were almost too concerned about allergy issues.
You kind of do, but I totally understand. We had a pretty big lot and a 3 bed/ 1 bath ranch on there. It is now a 2 story house. I really need to drive by since the street view is making it look so small. Then again it could be my childhood imagination.
Sometimes the past is best left in my imagination.
Yes, it's funny how you can remember houses from your childhood as being huge but it turns out you were just a little person in a big world at the time.
Thanks for sharing the NY pics and congrats to Marlene. Looking forward to reading about all your exploits.
You're welcome Disneybuckeye. Thanks, hope to get started one of these days. I need to get Marlene writing...she has a music camp in a couple of weeks and then before we know it she'll be off to college.
Nice work at the bottom of pg. 29.
Glad you guys had fun in NYC! Can't wait to hear all about the trip(s).
Jill in CO
It was a great time! Thanks.
LOVE the pictures of your trip to New York with Marlene and Judy. Looks like a great time.
It was. We felt like we were right near everything, staying at the Manhattan Club.
Finally got a chance to sit and read... I LOVE your first portion of TRIP, 2015! Haven't been to NY since I was a small child, but it still looks fabulous. Your Indian meal looks delicious! WOWZA! Super yummy. Hope you're having a wonderful time as your trip marches on.
We had a great time. We actually ate pretty inexpensively. That was the best Indian food I've had in I don't know how long. Our Indian options are pretty mediocre where we live. And that was probably our most expensive meal and it was maybe around $70, including tip! It helps to travel with healthy eaters who are happy eating at veggie places.
Welcome Home Glennbo family!
It was great to hear that!
Enjoy your trip; can't wait to be back at the Boardwalk in October.
We did! Left it intact for you as well.
Hope you are having a great time! Congrats to Marlene I need to look you up on Instagram not on there much
We did, thanks Tammie!
Because I'm on Facebook and if you just link your Instagram to your Facebook account, then none of need to join Instragram.
I would...but I'm not on Facebook!
I'm one of the last holdouts, just have never gotten around to doing it.
