Thanks for all the advice! I actually live in Virginia, not too far from Eden Center, and pretty much down the block from the original Lebanese Taverna (gotta love it).

I printed out your suggestions and hopefully I can use some of them!! You guys are great.

Thanks for all the advice! I'll let you guys know once I book it... :)

BaHa--frozen yogurt like soft serve, or a yogurt stuck in the freezer?

Eh, either way. I eat strange breakfasts. One day it's an egg-white omelet, the next it's hummus and pretzels.

Oh, Five Guys. The heart-clogging goodness of my hometown finally makes it here! If ever I feel the need to inhale half of a dead cow, I'll most definitely head there.

Funny story about Five Guys--my friend accompanied me (in VA) a few years ago. Why, I don't know, because she's a VEGETARIAN.

She gets there, and asks for a veggie burger. Commence everyone behind the counter laughing and rapidly speaking Spanish to one another. I take this as not the greatest sign.

When we finally sit down to eat, she opens her burger and finds...........vegetables. They literally took the condiments that they place on a burger (pickles, onion, lettuce, tomato) and put them on a bun.

Couldn't stop laughing......but honestly, what did she expect? It's FIVE GUYS!

Very 'Good Eats'.................and very funny. :)

Thanks for the advice! I'm mulling it all over but will let you know the results if they turn out well, or poor.

I KNOW!

I found this at the deli on the corner here in NYC..............I was embarassingly excited.
