So here we are in balmy freakin' HOT Scottsdale... but lovin' every minute of it! It's our home away from home & we love it out here, but it's just lot nicer weather in the winter! So yesterday we got up & worked out & then spent the afternoon at the pool. We had lunch there (along with a Bahama Mama, of course!)...
You pretty much need to be in the water to feel somewhat ok around here...
For dinner, we had a wonderful meal at the Ocean Club, with a great Chardonnay (ZD) recommended by my "Chardonnay snob" soul sister, Christa. Their calamari is to-die-for & Bob ordered a sashimi-style ahi that was so huge it should've been split by the 2 of us... & it was fantastic! We've already made note that we're splitting that meal when we come back in November. (We make notes like that because we both love to eat & are always planning our next meal... I think it's a Taurus thing... & we both are.)
Today, we lounged around in the condo & then decided to go shopping, have lunch & play miniature golf (because when it's 110 degrees outside, that the perfect activity!) We started at Anthropologie, because I love walking around that store... so much eye candy... and we don't have one close to us. I bought a denim pencil skirt for Fall & a cute long necklace. We had lunch at the Yard House... another favorite of ours. We hit Target for some necessities & Whole Foods to get some yummies for dinner & took it all back to the condo before going to Cracker Jax... which is exactly the same as Swing Around Town for those that know Fenton!
Of course, then we had to go inside after 18 holes & play games to win tickets... for the useless crap prizes. Kids love it though, & I personally don't mind playing games... especially when there's air-conditioning involved!
We'll probably get up & work out tomorrow (Bryn wants to go to the Kid's Club) & then spend some time at the pool. We're thinking Buca di Beppo for dinner, but we'll see! We are, however, very much looking forward to dinner at Sally, Scott & Molly's on Wednesday night. It's always a good time at their home!
ahaa....such a hard life. ;-) Can we trade? ;-)
