desserts, thermals, and pie

i get so uneasy when i go a weekday without posting to chili :( O.C.D much!!? was much too busy yesterday at work. anyhow to catch up i shall share the weekend in its entirety.

friday evening m and i went to dinner w a very

 nice couple of people (james and his gal who's name i will never remember- its sthing like leila (like the name of that robot on futurama) *no i don't really watch that but i have caught it enough to remember that name; and i don't even think that's the chick's name.... anyhoo we went

 to landmarc- 179 west broa

dway (bet worth and leonard) 212.343.3883. the food was all pretty darn good. i ordered the fritters (stuffed w fresh ricotta and moz)  also accompanied by a couple of fried zucchini for an app. this was decent BUT i would have liked them to be hot when they arrived- they were kinda warm. OH goodness how could i forget about james' and michael's yummy appetizer of BONE MARROW. this consisted of 4 giant cow bones and a long spoon (don't let me forget the delicious accompaniments of sea salt and sautéed onions) with which to sccop out the GOOP that was then spread on french bread pieces and gobbled up! (scuse me as i vomit in my mouth a little). then i had a side of cream spinach (REALLY GOOD and cheesy parmesan) with my filet that was ordered med well and came w fries (good and crisp) and salad. the meal was quite tasty and the woodford on the rocks i had was a huge glass on the rocks- well worth the $$. the kicker was (thankfully james is a dub eff as i am) when he ordered "one of each" off the desert menu-i thought i may steal him and run away with him (jokes). on top of one of each we had 3 ice cream cones which were homemade and AMAZING!!!! see pic above (with me in the background barely able to contain myself)

saturday i tagged along to go on a surprise outting to PA (see pic above- we also picked some homeless guy up off the streets of the upper west side and took him along for the ride)-just kidding o.g. i was sickly with a minor cold that i still haven't kicked and read a book and watched movies while others went to the slopes. i saw 'he's just not that into you' which was amazing in my opinion. great capture of men's as well as women's thoughts on dating! the cast is obv vast and they were all great (in fact the cute little red head w short hair who's name i don't know stole the show). go see this really cute romantic comedy! i then went in to see 'hotel for dogs' *note i am obsessed w dogs and obv this movie doesn't dissapoint! i only got 20 mins in before the boys came to pick me up :( i really want to go see this but i think this will be a solo adventure as not many of my friends wanna see a G rated flick w julia robert's niece....

we stopped at the bakery (see pic of pie label) and got amazing pie's (yes plural) we took one to the ski patrol shack for m's folks and one to the house (carrot cake w cream frosting and a mixed berry pie) this place is redic! so redic that we stopped again on the way home to get a mini pie and a giant cinnamon bun! oh- and a stack of 3 chocolate chunk 

cookies :)
