New Year Weekend

I hope everyone had a wonderful beginning to 2011!  As we all try to adjust to the addition of another “1″ at the end of our date I can’t help but be excited to think about the year we are living in and how close we are to our historic depiction of this era in the science fiction films from the 80′s.  And even though it was a rocky transition, the conversion from land based automobiles to urban aeronautics was a wise decision.

This weekend was a busy one for us as we split our time between the three major cities in western NY, Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse.  So in an attempt to retain interest and appease dwindling attention spans I will provide just the highlights.

Friday Evening and Saturday Morning: Buffalo, NY – New Year’s Eve Black and White Party.

Highlights: Peanut Butter Pie, X-Box 360 Kinect, and Belgian Waffles for breakfast.

Peanut Butter Pie says: "Happy Birthday Ashley, Justin, and baby New Year"

Saturday Afternoon and Evening: Syracuse, NY – Syracuse University vs. Notre Dame Basketball game and birthday dinner celebration at Olive Garden.

Highlights: 70-58 Orange over Irish, Chicken Alfredo Pizza, and T-shirts on game day.  (50° weekend the first weekend of January is not very common)

That's good for another 3 points

The Carrier Dome

Sunday Morning and Afternoon: Rochester, NY – The Fathers House, Cheesecake Factory, and Eastview Mall

Highlights: Avocado Egg rolls, Ultimate Red Velvet Cake Cheesecake, and a brand new lime green iPod shuffle.

And yes I know that the majority of my highlights are food dishes, so what!?
