Girls Weekend
011 months ago
Hannah and I had the best time in Jersey City, NJ visiting my Mom and watching my niece Amelia. It was a great way to spend a girl’s weekend –
Yes, I am a Jersey Girl

The family is headed to my old stomping grounds of North Jersey for the labor day weekend. The kids love going into NYC and I really want to hit up the jersey shore. It’s so funny how you don’t appreciate how close you live to all these great things when you are young. I lived 30 mins from NYC, 1 hr from Philly, 1 hr from the shore. I mean – come on – how great is that and I couldn’t wait to move out of Jersey when I graduated High School.
I want to make sure we have a general plan for this weekend — so Thursday it’s the shore, Friday – NYC. I want to find something out of the norm for the family in NYC though. We have been many times and always do the same thing — 5th Avenue walking, central park, Times Square, and once or twice — the Natural History Museum. I am going to do some research on things to do with Kids in NYC. I was thinking about heading to the Bronx or Staten Island Zoo. I haven’t been since I was a kid and I have a lot of memories of those trips. We could also go to South Street Seaport with the kids — I just have to figure out timing…
Decisions, Decisions!
getting lost in the gluttony
01 year ago
Heading up to my home town, Cranford NJ for the weekend. A short weekend road trip to see my mom and my sister, Connie. We will hit NYC, the Jersey Shore and many many diners – I hope! 
Nothing like New Jersey Diners.… If you have never been to one, you are missing a serious opportunity at good food. It’s more than a Sopranos episode -
The french fries are the best, the burgers are too. And forget about breakfast – You can’t go wrong. All people from NJ have their favorite diners, their favorite hang out, and their favorite menu item. It’s a personal preference….
I am sure I will eat pizza too – all those things that in my real life, I don’t. It’s a vacation, it’s a get away and I have had a rough week or so -So, getting lost in the gluttony may not be a bad idea.
Have a great long weekend…
