Out to Lunch

It's been 20 days since my last post.
Why didn't somebody tell me?
I'm sorry to have neglected you, blog, for this long.
And to my readers and friends, I'm sorry for neglecting you as well.
Times, they are a' changin' in my little corner of this Big Apple, both professionally and personally.
I've been adjusting to a new work schedule and am still trying to iron out when to set aside time to blog.
I hope you will forgive me for my absence, and thanks to all who wrote in with concerned emails.
Happy Monday! And now it's back to the blogging board...

Here's some of the action I'll be working on:
Blue Water Grill
The Maritime Hotel's La Bottega
Sangria
A clam and lobster adventure in Kennebunkport, Maine
A wedding weekend in Charlottesville
A wine night with friends at Tarallucci E Vino

And I'll leave you with this big furry friend. My mom and I saw one just like him hanging out on the side of the highway leaving Kennebunkport. Incredible :)

I was starting to get concerned. Funny how RL manages to eat up so much precious blogging time. Hurry back, and great picture!

Ivonne, thank you thank you:) I need to catch up on all of your blogs too!

Thanks Greg, you are the best. I listened to you, finally:) HAAA, you the moose- I laughed out loud!

Hey S'kat! Terrible RL, isn't it? My goodness. I do have a confession, I did not take that picture. We were in the car and drove by and would have gotten in an accident had I backed up to take one :( But yes, it IS a great pic of the big wooly moose.

Welcome back! So good to see you blogging again...

Why isn't the plural of moose 'mooses'?

Oh thank God you are back! I was starting to fear I'd no longer have the much needed and enjoyed food direction a la Mona!

Kennebunkport??? If you had dinner at Grissini's or down the road at Barnacle Billy's (Ogunquit), I might die from jealousy.

Kalyn, thanks girl. I hope you're doing well. Are you still hoping to get to NYC soon? Please let me know!

Aw, Joe, how are ya? Thanks so much :)

Jn, is that because you're training too hard for the marathon? I hope not. Crazy we hear in a couple weeks about it, eh?

Thanks Ilva, I need a fix of your pictures real soon!

Janice, so foul I just don't want to keep doin' it. Why can't this time spent with my computer at home pay the bills? Woe is me...

BC, now why'd you have to get all philosophical on me? I have no idea...And RL, I believe S'kat was referring to, brace yourself, REAL LIFE. EWWW!

Coodence, how are you? I miss your Haiku Fridays.

Tania, thanks so much:) Good to hear from you. Past few weeks have been lacking in discipline, if you will...as far as blogging's concerned anyway.

Paz, thanks so much. How many NY Mondays did I miss? Ugh, don't tell me I don't want to know:(

Paige Jennifer, thank you you are too sweet. And excuse me, how did I miss those places?!?! Man I need to consult with you before I go anywhere, seriously. We went to Mabel's and Bartley's...been to those places? How's your writing class? I have lots to fill you in on...man!

Mebeth, thanks so much:) How's cooking school? I'm sure I have a full semester's worth of learning to catch up on...

Rose, how are you? Where did you go? I see Columbia just had their graduations, were you in any of those graduating classes?

Catesa, hey girl! How are you doing? I need a NAZ/CAT fix too :) Hope my friends across the 'Lantic are doing well.

Barbara, thank you:) I feel terrible. I believe you emailed me ages ago about your son coming to NY and I 'm sure I probably totally missed it. I am a terrible blogging friend. Maybe it's not too late, I will try to find your email. So sorry!!
