Buca had awful service when we sat in the bar---here, how about the bar at Mancini's! I really love the 'mob' feel! any objections?

How bout at Ferns

Fri, 07/09/2004 - 10:48 AM Permalink
me2

Ferns has darts but remember the service was awful there last couple of times - the waitresses never came around-and I hate going to the bar!!! and we seam to end up at tables that are spread apart -

at least at Mancinis we can sit in those big red Vegas Style booths-maybe get a corner where there are 2 booths angled for a big group. They sometimes have a band or karoke ;)

We also can sit back against the highback booths and rest our necks and backs where at Ferns we have to sit on stools.

 and me being a Sag. -I need some change :)

I have never been to either... but Jake has told me that Mancini's is really good.

Of course, I wont be there unless I decide not to go to California, which is very possible.

could THX's visit have been a fluke?

I was the only one that got sick out of the 5 of us

I loved Ol Mexico until I talked with Marley last year -he had bad food experiences as a worker, not a patron. My dad worked there in the late 80's and NEVER told me of any problems.

I think it would be fine for chips and drinks though-so maybe a re-hash there?!

I love Ol Mexico, but haven't been there for years.

Interesting prizes racking up, my favorite is the quilt!

Hey Me2, I'll throw in a copy of the 2004 ice palace time lapse video. Will be in VCD format, playable on most newer DVD players (and since you've been generous enough to host this hunt, I'll make sure you get one as well).

I'm also interested in the quilt. I hope ESD wins so Me2 can make me one for the baby's room.

you know me ESD- I look forward to it when ever you complete it. What size did you make it? what material did you use? ie: paint, pastels, computer, chalk, pencil sketch? I know I will love it!

 

Thanks KC- I am thrilled to add your donation :)

 

hey I was gonna mention that with so many people having babies -not a problem to make it a baby crib size quilt- it could be winners preference.

Hey guys.... I thought I'd be able to make it.. but I have absolutely NO cash until Monday when Mark's check gets cashed. I don't want to walk up in there without any cash and stuffs... so I'll prolly just hang out here and catch the clue online or something ;)

Well now we have Me2 and Icesis2

that is my sister.

she came online to check things out. She is my "Ghostwriter" hehe -I made her help with the clues cause I value her opinion ...and she got the thesaurus when our dad died ;p

she should explain why she ended up #2 -something about Lance and an email account and a name already taken or password change. dont recall.

 

ok- 2 people have just had babies in the last month! I dont know if I am supposed to tell on either one BUT noone said I couldnt!

 

so here we go:




Snake is a grandpa!




Donny is a new dad! :)



sometime aroundJuly 1st




The baby is extremely cute! I saw a photo of him/her with AW!




but noone has given me exact details-I think they had a daughter
