Another road trip another bag of Twizzlers...

So I'm off to the Raleigh, NC area. The only time I've been to Raleigh was when I flew there and poor Ann and Ashley had to drive up and get me. They really are amazing friends.

I'm visiting my friend Kristin and her hubby, Paul and daughter, Angelina. Kristin and I became friends on the very first day of kindegarten. Awwww...

Then after Kristin's I'm heading to see Dana who is really like part of our family. Our two families have known each other since before I was born. For a while I was following Dana around the country but just about a year behind. We both went to Univ. of South Carolina but never met. Then she moved to LA and my family followed about a year later. Meanwhile we all moved to S. C. and now she's just moved to N. C., about a year later. I enjoy hanging out with her because I can let my inner geek out. She was the one I went to see the one-man Star Wars show with, attended ComiCon with, and so many more geeky events.

Anyway I'm excited about going to this part of N.C. because there's a Pei Wei and I love me some lettuce wraps and honey seared shrimp! Oh and...

I GET TO GO TO TRADER JOE'S!!!

I'm actually bringing a large cooler and I'm not ashamed to say that. I'm gonna get turkey meatballs, Mochi, and so much more!
