World Trade Center site

After looking for “trainers” for Lorna at Century 21 Department Store we decide to have afternoon tea at Starbucks. Except it wasn’t tea, it was coffee, and it wasn’t at the right time. Kelly enjoys a nice Starbucks frozen treat.

So does Rachelle.

Lorna & Kelly

At the gates of heaven! I was so excited to go to the chocolate exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History.

Kelly & I eat David Burke’s Gourmet Pops (gourmet frozen chocolate-covered cheesecake pops) after viewing the chocolate exhibit.

Our first dessert after dinner was at Magnolia Bakery where we all split a few cupcakes. Here you can see a baker frosting some cupcakes. Our second desert was ice cream from Cones.

Lorna checked into the Chelsea Center where she’ll be staying on for a few more nights. Kelly and I waited in the garden while she sorted things out inside.

Kelly & Lorna were in town this weekend. So much fun. Kelly is from around the DC area and Lorna from around London. Lorna is a friend of Kelly’s from college who is traveling around the world this year. She started in Canada and is making her way across America, east to west. After California, she’ll be island hopping in Fiji. Then it’s on to New Zealand, Australia and finally South Africa. I’m so jealous! Good luck, Lorna! More photos.

People from London never visit my town. I guess the Pork Expo only appeals to certain types of people… Like me!

Hi. Gorgeous pictures. Thanks for the treats.

The chocolate exhibit was awesome. oh, I mean BRILLIANT! heh. Lorna has inspired me to use words like “brilliant”, “fabulous” and “lovely” instead of “awesome” and “cool”. The bag that I’m holding in that photo is one of the Ralph Lauren numbers I scored off my old roommate.

uh, what about the word “radical”? millhouse and his shelbyville twin both say that one.

It was a brilliant adventure. I even enjoyed you all forcing me into cones after we watched some bloke frost cupcakes at marigolds? …. I’m surprised he even charged you, Rachelle!

A job? who does that apply to? I have two jobs. Is it possible to stay at home and live on the East Coast? I could only dream………..

Thank you for a BRILLIANT weekend in NYC, it was great to meet you and great hanging out with you. I will keep checking your site to see what you are up to. Remember, you are welcome anytime in the UK. Cheers, Lorna xx

It was no problem, Lorna. I enjoyed spending the weekend with you guys.. and I’m sure that Kelly and I will finally stop talking about visiting you and finally DO it … A couple of my friends have commented to me that they think you resemble Jorja Fox from the (American) TV show CSI.

…it is amazing what trickery cameras can do to the human eye…
