End of summer fun

Summer is winding down...doesn't mean I am! Here's what's up from this week:


Free Zumba on the plaza!


Love this girl - she has fun no matter what :)


CJ and Bill


YAY WE DID IT!!!!


Trying to keep up...


I had a Groupon to try this place - Addis Red Sea. It has Ethiopian food - something I've never had before


Appetizer - a spicy cottage cheese with the famous 'spongy bread'


See - spongy :)


Tasty


Beautiful Boston


Nighttime stroll


Truth?


I miss Paris...


A picnic with me, myself, and I


View while laying in the grass after my picnic


Treat - not a full cupcake, just a frosting shot ;-) 


Funny bench


Afternoon stroll


Last week and this coming week are Restaurant Week in Boston - restaurants prepare selection menus and diners get an app, entree, and dessert for $33.12 at some of Boston's nicest restaurants. Last Thursday, I went to Tapeo with Han, James, and Celine (Han's friend from high school visiting for the week)...we each got 4 tapas and shared and it was aaaaaaaaamazing



(pickled octopus!)



(dates stuffed with goat cheese wrapped in bacon)




After dinner we headed to Emerald for birthday drinks for James...
 

...but Han couldn't get in because he was wearing shorts...womp womp


So we headed down the street


Blueberry pomegranate martini


The group - bday drinks!


On Friday I went with Vanessa and Yesha to watch Dirty Dancing on the wharf


Pretty hotel


Eating fries and having a blasty blast :)


Saturday - BEACH TRIP


Where's Han's head???


We stopped at Clam Box near Ipswich for clam strips and calamari (Mom, next time you're up, we're going here)


Mmmmm


The line was out the door...


....and after tasting these, I could see why


Han brought a Polaroid(ish) camera to take instant shots - that's Celine, me and James


Part of the group


They're so cool!


I'm definitely getting one of these...  


Me and Celine...and some guy in the background

Jump shot...almost


Sort of...


A one-legged race (Doris won)


Han doing what Han does...


Yep - I took this shot :)

 

Buried the birthday boy in the sand


Covering him with more sand 



Looks like an ad for potato chips, huh? 


Roomies!


Hahaha


The group (minus me) 


Toes in the sand


Building our fire


Mmmmmm - hotdogs and s'mores


:)


Can't beat that :)


Perfect marshmallow


Around the campfire

We had way too much fun...

Well that's all for now - have a happy week! :)
