I love Ichiban! It is like Bennihana where they cook your meal in front of you. I never tire of the onion volcano or the knife tricks that our chef, Soy Sauce performs. It makes me happy when they throw shrimp at you and you have to try and catch it!
Billy Joel also makes me happy! Molly, Liz, and I went to Syracuse during college to see Billy Joel and Elton John perform. We obviously are die hard fans because we slept on the floor in a boys dorm room, used communal bathrooms and put up with stinky boys in our quest to rock out to "Only the Good Die Young" and "We Didn't Start the Fire." This year, Liz, Molly and I were at the Mohegan Sun casino and there was a Billy Joel cover band. They immediately transported us back to our college days, especially when we met some crazy guys in the bar who were middle aged and acting like they were in high school!
Twilight is terrific! I devoured the four books in record time and I love the movies! I want Bella, Edward and Jacob to all get along and live happily ever after together. I hosted a Twilight party this year complete with Bloody Bella martinis! I am now the proud owner of a Twilight Calendar, Twilight journals and all the Behind the Scenes books.
The Jaycee ski trip was another fun event. Tom and I won the lottery and we got the private bedroom and bathroom for the weekend. We played games, hung out and went tubing. We were swishing down the hills like world class skiers (but on inner tubes) as the wind whipped in our face. We needed goggles and then with our scarves flapping, we would have looked like Snoopy as the Red Baron! The whole group went out to a Mexican restaurant and the waiter brought us complimentary bowls of soup to share. Too bad the single boys were sitting next to one another, they had to share a bowl of soup. Hilarity ensued as some soup was spilled, tiki drinks were imbibed and Scott sampled chips and salsa from the nearby table as we headed out of the restaurant!
Now if I could just eat at Ichiban with Tom and Scottie and Edward and Jacob while listening to Billy Joel, I would be a happy girl!
