I Spent Today In Jersey . . .

With my coworkers. Sound miserable? WRONG.

IT WAS REEEEEEEALLLLLYYYY FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of my bosses Sandra had a bunch of the teachers and one of our managers over for a day long festival of adult bevvies and Italian food, and did she deliver! She had printed up little cute drink menus, and had a TON of options with every kind of mainstream liquor and mixer. She also had red and white wine AND champagne. It was unreal. She had a table of appetizers - crudite, bruschetta, mini pizzas, salad and I'm sure a bunch of other things I can't recall offhand. For the main event she made rice and a choice of three sauces: a creamy scallop sauce, a Hawaiian inspired chicken and pineapple sauce and one other sauce I can't remember right now either- did I mention I spent a great portion of the day drinking? There was chocolate fondue with strawberries, bananas and pineapples, cupcakes, and M&M sugar cookies for dessert. NOM!

We played ten fingers and taboo - two games which are awesome not only for learning factoids about people, but also for learning about how they think (taboo particularly).

I wore my fave baggy Levi's corduroys 2 sizes too big, and in my haste to not miss the train forgot a belt. I was also wearing a basic J Crew favorite tee in navy with sandals and a pink trench coat. The outfit was very comfy, and served it's purpose in keeping me dry - except when we were running for the train back to Manhattan, and I literally had to hold my pants up and kick off my sandals. Both necessary so I could run full speed without falling on my face or ending up giving the entire southbound platform and parking lot a full moon. No belt: FAIL.

Otherwise, good times :).
