I've Been Tagged....Twice
I've been tagged by Norma
to name my 5 favorite restaurants. We don't go out to eat much anymore. Because of the Little Man's allergies, there really isn't any where safe for us to go as a family. Hubby and I acknowledge that we need to go out more as a couple and leave the kids home with a sitter. Hopefully this summer we'll start doing that.
So here are few of my favorite restaurants and a few places were I love a particular food item.

1. Add a direct link to your post below the name of the person who tagged you. Include the city/state and country you're in.

Nicole (Sydney, Australia)
velverse (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)
LB (San Giovanni in Marignano, Italy)
Selba (Jakarta, Indonesia)
Olivia (London, England)
ML (Utah, USA)
Lotus (Toronto, Canada)
tanabata (Saitama, Japan)
Andi (Dallas [ish], Texas, United States)
Todd (Louisville, Kentucky, United States)
miss kendra (los angeles, california, u.s.a)
Jiggs Casey (Berkeley, CA, USA! USA! USA!)
Tits McGee (New England, USA)
Kat (Ontario, Canada)
Cheezy (London, England)
Paula (Orange County, California, U.S.)
Jeff (Colorado, USA)
gekko(Arizona, USA)
Norma (Columbus, OH)
Janeen (Cleveland, Ohio USA)

2. List out your top 5 favorite places to eat at your location.


5. For Pizza - Biagios: It's not gourmet, just good pie.

4. For Wings - The Wright Place: Best wings I've ever had. Hands down. Nothing compares. At one point during college and just after I was like Norma from Cheers at this place. Looking back it's sort of sad now, but at the time it was fun.

3. Sans Souci - Wonderful food and very nice atmosphere. We went here one night with my husbands boss before heading to Playhouse Square to see the Lion King. If it wasn't for the theatre tickets, I think I could have stayed there a while longer and enjoyed another glass of wine (maybe two).

2. Game Keepers Tavern - Hubby and I had our first date here, and I've always enjoyed the food every time we've returned.

1. Hyde Park Grille - Every thing was wonderful here. The wine was excellent, the service was excellent, the food was excellent. I'm now wondering why it's been a year since I've been there?

Now I have to tag 5 other people preferably from other countries and states so:
Laura
Kim
Sue, my favorite tagee
Michelle
Barb

Ok, for the second tag: I was tagged my Barb
to tell you seven "weird things about myself". I think I've done this before, so I'll try and come up with 7 new things:
1. I get motion sickness. Not just a little. A lot! I still get car sick. I get sick at the amusement park, and I can't even swing on the swing set, because it makes me sick. I like to ride the rides at the amusement parks though, so Bonine is my friend.

2. I buy plants obsessively in the spring and summer (see previous post). That's probably not too weird by itself, but I have a black thumb and most of my plants die. I just like gardening even though I'm bad at it.

3. I like the zoo. I buy the zoo pass every year for the kids, but secretly it's for me too.

4. I love to scrap book, but I never do it. I buy lots of scrap booking stuff and hoard it, but I never use it. I have layouts done in my head, I just never seem to have the time to "do" the scrap booking. Maybe I should lay off blogging?

5. McDonald's fries are my FAVORITE food. If I were in prison and given a last meal, McDonald's fries would be it. Even though they are greasy, and nasty, and bad for you I LOVE THEM (even if I am mad at McDonald's for changing their oil right now).

6. Somewhere in my collection of Cd's and cassettes is the soundtrack to Sid and Nancy: I'm probably the only person alive to have seen that movie (or to admit to it).

7. Most people gain weight their freshman year in college, but I lost weight. 25 pounds to be exact. I'm so picky about my food that I couldn't eat at the cafeteria so I only ate Orville Redenbacher popcorn and Chunky soup the whole year from my microwave. I don't recommend the popcorn/soup diet.

Now I'm supposed to tag more people, but I've already tagged 5 people for the other one, so I'll leave this one open. If you want to do it, feel free, just let me know in comments so I can come check out how weird you are.

Wow, Janeen. I've never heard of a single one of your restaurants so they must all be local to you. And I've never heard of a single person on the list of people linked in that post but boy, they're scattered all over the world, aren't they?

So you're not weird. Well, except maybe for Sid and Nancy. I've honestly never heard of that either.

I just saw all your pretty plants. Those are all outdoor plants. You can't kill those, right? I love your pretty hanging basket.

Thank you for playing along and I'll get the restaurant post up in the next day or so. I have Cameron here for three days. Whole lot of poking and sticking going on around here, but he and I are both handling it amazingly well. My heart races when I give him a shot, but with each shot, it gets a little easier. It helps immensely that he just smiles at me and says, "boo boo." :-)

I have many of your "weird" things in common with you...except the weight loss at college. Who knew that people would bring pizza right to your door? (I was from a small town and had never heard of pizza delivery before college).

Thanks for tagging me on the restaurant tag. I will do it either tonight after church or tomorrow.

Have a great evening!
