They're talking about the ideal lunch date over at Girl Talk Thursday. I'm going to have to be
*twiddles thumbs*
So. ANYHOW. Chebbar and I hop on a plane and head to Vegas. We go to the Flamingo so we can sit out front and have lunch at Margaritaville, where we can bask in the sun while we people-watch. Now, because this is sounding suspiciously like a vacation, we'll throw caution to the wind and order WHATEVAH WE WANT! Besides, have you BEEN to Vegas? You walk. And walk. And walk some more. So, assuming we'll be able to roll our asses out of the chairs when we're done, we'll walk our lunch off anyhow.
Because I'm a gluttonous Taurus, I'm going full-meal deal (Chebbar's a gluttonous Taurus as well, so hopefully we saved our pennies carefully for said lunch date cum vacation). First up: frosty umbrella drink, plz! Knowing me, it will probably be a strawberry daiquiri. Ooh! Or maybe a chi chi! For starters, I'll go with the crab, shrimp, & mushroom dip (served with toasted garlic bread, of course). My main course will be the chicken caesar salad. Sadly, they don't have a dessert menu, but that's okay, because if I have an appy, I'm usually too stuffed to finish my entree, never mind dessert. That's not to say that I won't want ice cream later, though. Gotta round out the full-meal deal after all... ;)
Yay, Vegas! I love Vegas. Oh, and Chebbar, of course. And FOOD! OM NOM NOM
(Wanna know what's REALLY sad and pathetic? We stayed at the Flamingo when we went to Vegas in April. We were going to eat at Margaritaville, but Mr. Fussypants looked at menu they had on display outside and declared he wouldn't be able to find anything to eat. *sigh* Good thing we're going back! In 2011. IN JANUARY. *bed flop*)
You and I can definitely share a lunch table - strawberry daquiris and crab, shrimp, and mushroom dip? YES, please! When I finally drag Hubby to Vegas (I've been trying for 8 years), I now know where and what I'll eat. ;)
ReplyDeleteI had margaritas from Margaritaville when we visited Florida. They had a little window where you could just order drinks from, like a drive-thru, except ... a walk-thru... anyhow, they were cool. And yummy.
ReplyDeleteSo after you go, in January 2011, you MUST update us on whether your experience was anything like your ideal one!
Um, is there any public activity more fun than people-watching? Best. pastime. ever.
ReplyDeleteLove this. Makes me want to hop on a plane to Vegas right now!
Yeah, that sounds pretty nice. Although I'd take a nap-date over just about anything right now. Sleep is like gold over here.
ReplyDeleteI love your dream lunch date. So wanna steal it and start planning a trip to Vegas.
ReplyDeleteI think it sounds good! On any given day, if asked who I'd like to have a lunch date with, I'd say my main squeeze. I don't think it's cheesy or 'predictable'... I think it's genuine.
ReplyDeleteStopped by to say "Hey!" :)
(Hell, if I can't make friends in *real* life, I can make internet friends! I am NOT broken!)
