VALENTINES!

So i need to apologize straight off because we did so much fun stuff Valentines weekend and didn't take a single picture! I had my camera the whole time too! I am lame! Anyways, last week I won tickets to the NBA Jam Session on the radio. We went on Friday night and had a good time wandering through the convention center and seeing some famous NBA players. Saturday was Valentines and we had bought tickets to the ballet a few weeks ago. We went to see Romeo and Juliet and it was AMAZING! We had the best time.

After the ballet we decided to go to this restaurant that i have always wanted to go to. Its called Pizzeria Bianco and i first heard about it on Oprah. She said it was the best pizza in all of America and Oprah knows her pizza! I went once a few years ago and there was like a 7 hour wait so we just left. It is right in the middle of downtown in this historic old building that only has like 10 tables. There is one man that makes all the food...Mr. Bianco. Anyways, we got in line at 4:30 and the restaurant opens at 5. They filled up the ten tables and then we got our names on the list and they said it would "ONLY" be a 5 hour wait!

We decided it was now or never so we walked over to a movie theater nearby and saw Taken, which was CRAZY! Really good though. After the movie we walked back to the restaurant and sat outside for a few hours just hanging out. Good thing it was good weather! Our name finally got called and we got some seats. IT WAS SO GOOD! I am serious. Oprah was not joking around. Most delicious food ever. When we were almost done eating a guy walked in and john was like hey that guy looks familiar....yeah thats kevin johnson! I, of course, had no clue who Kevin Johnson was. Apparently he used to play for the Suns and then moved to Sacramento and now hes like the mayor or something. I would also like to point out that he didn't wait 5 hours. I heard the hostess whisper, "give us 15 minutes"......
So, all in all, really fun Valentines! Best ever actually! Way to go John!

Sounds like you need to use some of the wigs and things from the garage sale to get you a seat sooner, or maybe it will get you thrown out. The place sounds yummy. 5 hour wait is crazy though!
