Pithari, Greek Restaurant

Can you believe it? Paul has been gone for over four weeks. Lame! But, before he left he took me on a date to one of our most favorite places in NJ.

It's a little Greek restaurant in Highland Park called Pithari.



The food is amazing. Thin sliced meat with fresh-made Pitas and light and delicious Greek yogurt and veggies. Yum diddly um.



Plus, last time we went, their windows were wide open, and a great breeze was blowing through.





All the blue and white makes me feel like I'm sitting right on the sea in Greece with white washed houses all around.

It's a New Jersey gem if there ever was one.

Lake Superior

I just purchased my first iPhone apps (all freebies 'til now). And wouldn't it make sense that it was a blogging app, allowing me to keep you updated at all times! Or, mostly to keep me busy during my waits at airports today.


I have a billion things to catch up on, but first up are some shots of the lovely Lake Superior.




You might think it's an ocean, but it fooled you. Freshwater lake right there.

















We loved it.

(My only complaint with the App is the smaller sized pics- which I later fixed on my computer, otherwise pretty good BlogPress!)

Those Bridges!

I love big bridges. They are just kind of magical, and huge. I always feel the need to take a picture, so here is a collection for you.

First up: the Verrazano, which connects Staten Island to Brooklyn (taken on our way to JFK, flying home for Eric's wedding. PS.. we almost missed our flight because of Brooklyn traffic.) It's a double decker dudes.






This was on our way to the Phillies game, a great view of Philly from this guy.

Day of the Fathers!

Happy Day of the Fathers!

Hey Dad,
Thanks for loving me, even when I'm a bit crazy. In fact, thanks for giving me that little bit of crazy and embracing it yourself. :)

Thank you for supporting me in my life's decisions. Great or small. You know me better than most people. You are one of my biggest fans. (And guess what - on my Survivor application, you were the one I listed as my hero). 

Oh yes, and thanks for being generally awesome. I look up to you a lot. I want to live my life like you and mom, staying active, being fit and being able to enjoy life with your kids.

You are the best :)

And also, a tribute to Paul's dad. Mr. Greg Bryan Frandsen

Thanks for giving that middle name of yours to Paul. He loves it.

Thanks for your example to Paul, of being a man, traveling the world, and always looking suave.


And thanks for being an amazing dad. 
You are missed!

Oh yeah!
And we also love those grandpa's of ours :)
