my friend (jen) contacted us today to see if we would be interested in grabbing a bite to eat. as karen and i have not really had the opportunity to hang out with jen during the birth, life, and death of our son (braden), we figured it would be good for us.
anyway, we decided to go to friendly's. now, i suck at friendly's. the dinner plan, however, was to go for dinner and then indulge... with ice cream. for anyone who does not know me... both karen and i love ice cream. if karen weren't a dietitian, i would say that ice cream should be one of the four major food groups.
(pictured below are bill, karen, jen, and pugsley.)
anyway, karen and i picked up jen and went to friendly's in quincy... which, for anyone who is curious, was a place of employment at one time for my friend (hot amy). i believe that friendly's was also where my other friend (garv) first met hot amy and coined her now infamous moniker "hot".
apparently, friendly's is running a promotion right now where you can get an entree, a drink, and ice cream for $10. what a deal!
in all my years, i don't think i have never gone into that friendly's and seen it packed. the three of us actually had to wait to be seated. the crowds shortly disappeared while we were there, but it was interesting to see the place so full of people... particularly children. it was also a good thing that i had used the bathroom prior to going to friendly's because there was apparently a long waiting line for the bathroom. (speaking of which, i guess it's also a good thing i'm not lactose intolerant either because eating ice cream would be painful.)
needless to say, karen and i had a fun time with jen. the ice cream also made it a good night... i'd normally say cue rachael ray's "yum-o" sound... but i think it goes without saying. ice cream... yum.

have you tried their blueberries and cream ice cream? it is amazing.
Some additional Friendly employee history for you...I was the hostess with the mostess that replaced Hot Amy when she left :)
Those were the days, I remember coming home smelling like smoke & grease!
Hi Mike,
I LOVE reading your blogs. Sometimes it reminds me of me. Thanks for writing them. I think you may have missed your calling. I would read anything you write. Everytime I read something you write, I am looking for more. I don't want it to end. Hope you and Karen are doing okay. I love you both.
Love,
Ally
