Dinner @ Justin & Sara's new apartment

Pin It




My older son, Justin & his lovely GF, Sara, moved in together last month into an apartment in Park Slope. Due to our varied schedules, Larry & I didn't get to go see it till last night. We forgot to take any pics so I've "borrowed" these from Sara's facebook pics from when they 1st moved in. It looks nice & lived in now & they've really made it theirs.

They now have a small table in front of the huge bay window that looks out onto Lincoln Place. That is where they served us dinner last night. Justin made delicious hamburgers that he made in the grill pan I bought for them. And Sara made yummy brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes for sides. Even Larry, who's not into veggies, had some.

For dessert we brought some fresh fruit at their request since they wanted to eat healthy. But then when we went on a walk around the neighborhood, they took us to a cute little bakery that they love & we bought all kinds of goodies to take back to the apt. for dessert. It was a fun evening and it was great seeing them both so happy.

For this weekend only, 10/3-10/4, shipping is on me, no matter how large or how small your order is. Just please add FREESHIP in your comments at checkout & I'll refund your paypal account for the shipping portion. Good deal, huh??

I will extend the same offer to any purchases from my
