Smuggling Lunch

As most of you know, I have such a crazy schedule between working overnights and school during the day, that I sleep very little and sometimes not at all for days a time. Well, I guess it caught up to me because after a nice 14 hour nap, it was time to get up at the crack of noon today.

Of course, I wake up panic stricken because I feel like I've lost half a day, which I have. I immediately hop out of bed and start feeding and watering all the pets, plug in the flat iron for my hair, and pick out my clothes to head out to what is supposed to be our anniversary lunch at Smuggler's Cove in Tannersville, PA. Where was Joe during all this fun.... well sleeping, of course.

Eventually, he did wake up after about a half hour and we headed out for a now late lunch. Our 3 year wedding anniversary was on September 8th, but since we couldn't go out in the middle of the week, we went today. Smuggler's Cove holds a special place in our hearts since it's where we had our rehersal dinner. The food was as good as ever and Joe's going to let you know all about it at the end of this post.

After lunch we headed to that dreaded outlet mall so that I could go to buy some more scrubs for work (boring!)and going into a cooking store to get my anniversary presents (fun!). I found a whisk with a little piggie on the end and squeeled with delight. It's called the "piggie wiggie whisk" and the first warning it had on it was that it wasn't a toy. Joe broke out laughing and tried taking it away from me. Now, that's just not cool. So, I'll let him finish up this blog, while I go play with my piggie wiggie and make a cake in my bew bundt pan... or as I call it, the butt pan.

FYI, I was not sleeping that half hour while Casey was getting ready to go out for the day. I layed in bed for that half hour, but did not at any point fall asleep. Anyways, our meal at Smuggler's Cove was great. Casey started with her usual mozzerella sticks, and I had coconut shrimp with 3 kinds of sauces. Then for our main meals she had a veggie burger while I had a New England lobster roll. Our lunches were delicious of course.

After the forced stop at the Crossings for Casey, I got to drag her to Best Buy. Casey was nice enough to buy me a couple of video games as my anniversary gifts. We then headed to Wal-Mart to grocery shop before finally returning home to relax for the rest of the day. It's been a great day to just celebrate our anniversary and spend some time together.
