Friday spectacular...

Here we are again.... a late Saturday night, happy but weary and typing up a synopsis of the daily happenings here in P-town. Monica and I have this amazing knack - we take time and mold and bend it to the nth degree. Not only can we take a little bit of time and stretch it beyond humanly possible but also spend alot of it in one place. Case in point, Friday. I got off work about 3:30 or so got home around 4ish. We headed out to check out this sale they were having at Linens-N-Things kinda a going out of biz sale and got sidetracked. Rita's, one of our loves, was having Christmas in July celebration goin on. Of course, we stopped, Hazel said hi to the Rita cup, and we got a delicious banana Blendini. This concoction is basically like that banana pudding nilla wafer dessert that Grandma Ethel makes for the church potluck, only it is banana water ice blended with vanilla custard and nilla wafers. To quote Hazel, "I lyke eyes cweam!!" Yeah, me too, kid, me too!! Its okay to want it, but ya gotta come visit! hahaha, anyway, we finally get over to LNT and cruise around realizing the sale ain't all that, so Hazel and I go around goin nie nie on all the beds in the store until Janet(im' sorry if there is someone who reads this or knows someone named janet-i jus came up with the name for this mean lady at the store, i dont know her real name) said, "Hey she can't be on those beds!" Sorry, my 2 year old is totally wreckin your lame beds, oh wait, you are goin out of business anyway. Oh well, so then we head over to Marshalls to check it out. We are like bargain hunters. We are lookin at all kinds of cool stuff and then bam, it's like 9 o'clock. What the....? We lost like 3 hours in a stupid store. But we did have a lot of fun. SO Friday nights are like pizza night for us, and we are on a quest to find the best pizza around where we live because all they eat here in Philly is pizza, cheesesteaks/hoagies and Dunkin donuts. So there is this place by the house called Pica's. Its usually packed so we figured it must be worth a try. We cruised in and got seated by a sweet old lady. We decided on eggplant parmiagiana for appetizer and settled in on a small pie with sausage and mushrooms. Holla holla!! THe eggplant was really yummy! Then the pizza came and wow... it was really good. It was square and we got 8 pieces. Funny thing about it, it was upside down. I guess their specialty is to put cheese first on the dough and then the sauce and toppings. It was different but really yummy. So good in fact that both Monica and I ate way too much and barely made it to the car. So super stuffed, like Monty Python style! It was a great meal and then we came home and digested.... That was our timewarp day!!! Whew.....
