Good ole Houston

Jen and I made a trip to Houston this past weekend. Although we were delayed 5 1/2 hours on the way to Houston (fog in NYC), we made the most of our short trip.

We had planned on having wings late Friday night, but getting in at 3am kind of cancelled that idea. When we finally made it to my brother's place, had a beer and went to bed.

Saturday:
  • woke up at 10 and went to the Midtown Farmer's market (Monica Pope was a little surprised to hear that I wasn't cooking anymore)
  • met up with my mom and granny at Yia Yia Mary's for some Greek food... sat out on the grass after lunch it the 70-degree weather!
  • TOOK A NAP!
  • went to Cune's place to meet up with Jeff & Liz and had some Popeye's for the MLK celebration
  • dinner at Goode Co BBQ... Jen's first Texas BBQ experience!
  • had drinks at Volcano's and Little Woodrow's

Sunday:

  • drove around Bellaire to show Jen where we grew up
  • popped in on Ryan and Lady to see the new (giant!) house
  • had lunch with dad and Jeanette at Goode Co Seafood (keeping them in business)
  • hung out at dad's and played with Hannah (the dog)
  • went to visit Matt & Donna at their new townhome. We were introduced to the 20 Questions ball - the stupid ball that can guess what you're thinging. Scary
  • Had our wings that night at b-dubs... finally! Best wings I've every had!

Monday:

  • had lunch at Irma's with dad and Marty
  • back on the plane to NYC (the flight back took about a third as long at the flight there)
