Saturday Lunch Review: Clair's

For week 30 we went to Clair's Family Restaurant for lunch.  It's been around for a while and we finally got to go for our lunch.  We had both been there before but haven't been for quite some time.  The food was very good, the staff was nice, a little odd but very nice all the same.  We very much enjoyed the atmosphere.  They also have an area for ice cream if you'd like to stop in for a sweet treat.  I've heard their milkshakes are delicious but we didn't get one while we were there, so maybe next time. 

Saturday Lunch Review: Tropical Treat

For our 29th week doing our Saturday lunches, we went to The Tropical Treat.  We both had their specialty, The FatBoy.  Its a burger with two patties and a special sauce on it that make it very delicious.  I've been to the Treat many times before and it is definitely a favorite of mine.  Be warned, its a drive in place, or you can park and eat outside at picnic tables.  But it is very relaxing to sit out on a nice day and eat.  It is often pretty busy because it is a very popular place.  I would recommend anyone go and try the FatBoy Burger, at least once. 

Book Review: The Great Gatsby

I came into The Great Gatsby knowing what was going to happen.  I've seen the movie several times before reading the book.  But I was still very interested and enthralled by the book.  The descriptions of the characters, Daisy especially gave me a knew respect for, and understanding of her.  The way I viewed her in the book and in the movie were very different, due to the way that Fitzgerald depicts her.  You can truly feel the tangled, heart-throbbing mess that the characters find themselves in.  Fitzgerald does a great job of portraying the emotions of the characters and showing what really drives them.  I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good classic or love story.

Review: Jersey Boys

 

Jersey Boys was a fantastic portrayal of the successes and trials of the Four Seasons rise to fame.  The actors do a fantastic job and the singing is phenomenal.  The way that they narrated the movie was very unique and the perfect way to tell their story.  The movie was a little longer than I expected but it was well worth it  I would definitely recommend seeing this. 

Saturday Lunch Review: Genova's

For our 26th week, we went to Genova's, a pizza and sub shop, for lunch.  The food was very good, we both had subs that were delicious.  Their bread was freshly made and very good.  They were also doing a deal that you got a coupon and if you spent at least $15.00 you would get a free 16 inch pizza.  The pizza, which we ate later that evening, was also very good.  They had a large dining area and also offered carry out options.  We enjoyed eating there and will definitely be returning. 

Movie Review: 22 Jump Street

Twenty-two Jump Street was a really funny movie.  A big part of the movie was that the storyline be "exactly the same as last time".  They were supposed to solve this case exactly the same as last time, but this case is totally different.  There were quite a few surprised that had me really busting up.  In my opinion, the first movie was funnier over all, but the sequel had better funny moments.  I would definitely recommend this movie to any comedy lover or anyone who has seen the first movie.  It's definitely worth it.
