*BUON APPETITO*
Not just a command to enjoy the meal, Buon Appetito is our humble little NJ town of Bayonne's Italian restaurant that delivers $18.95 lobsterfest on Friday nites. Last Friday, we went with our Bayonne crew -- Steven & Phyllis, Rob & Diana. We 6 ordered up a storm of appetizers, sangria, and lobster or steak dinners.
Mussells in white wine broth. This was every bit as tantalizing as the picture makes it seem. Lemon, butter, wine, garlic...you could throw styrofoam in it and I'd lick the plate clean.
Seafood salad....chock full of squid, shrimp, clams, celery, red onions in lemony, olive oily goodness.
As if this plate of heaven needs any words.
Sangria. I saw Rob eat one of the little orange cubes off the peel, like a regular orange slice. It was the cutest thing. I wanted to pet him like a cat.
The guys went for the steak special, topped with onions & mushrooms.
The girls went for lobstah, with buttah. Come to mama, lovah!
Yay lobster bib! heh heh....this bib is uh, tricky.
hmm...I seem to be having unusual trouble opening this damn thing. My lobster's getting cold.
STILL STRUGGLING! This is fucking ridiculous!
After a 5-minute ordeal, by bib is open and I'm suited up and ready for battle.
bubby goes: "I've taken about 40 shots of you struggling. This is so embarrassing for you on xanga."
Can I stop smiling now and get down to business?
Unlike the bib, I did not struggle with my lobster. It was obediently succulent.
At the end of the night (after a molten chocolate cake that everyone watched me eat), we were all deliriously full and happy. Suddenly, the check comes...and it's already been paid! Diana had snuck away to the "bathroom" and treated us all. Rob & Diana pull stunts like this ALL THE TIME with us. Ugh. And by "ugh", I mean I love them.

I can just see you and Keith, hanging out at Magic Fountain, licking your cones like badboys and making catcalls at all the little boys that walk by.
You are so adorable when you smile. You must get your way a lot by using that smile.
He always gets his way !
well I get a lot of food. and cake. That's about it.
What in the world is going on with that lobster bib?
all I can say is you're so damn lucky G wasn't there as he would have stole that lobster lickity-split
the goddamn bib came factory-folded and for the life of me, I couldn't find the damn seam to get it open. I picked the corners, licked my fingers, blew on the edges, crumpled the damn thing, and passed it off to hubby for help. This thing was ridiculous!
G's lucky he wasn't there. Most people like having all their fingers.
I shouldn't have checked your blog so late... my tummy is grumbling for some food.
Dear, I am throwing up for you right now. Ugh......You do look cute trying to open the bib that a 3 year old would open in a second! kakakakaka
