I’ll be there. Is it O.K. for kids? I’m thinking of bringing my rugrats.

Eve, we’ve all memorized your People Pages picture, so we’ll just look out for you 😉

Whoever gets there first can maybe leave word with the reception area: Cecil Adams party or something like that.

See you there! oh and for time, usually anytime at or after 6:30 PM.

Average price fifty bucks? We ARE just meeting for drinks, aren’t we? Do they have a bar, or will they force us to a table and shove menus into our cheap little mitts?

Yes, and $50 is for a three-course meal! I, as everyone else who has met me knows, will be having nachos, which counts as an appetizer and therefore costs much less than $50 🙂 But I digress… see y’all tomorrow night!

They just delivered the King Cake to my office. It’s not even 11 and now I have the sweet smell of cake in here. It will be a miracle it this cake last till 6:30.  
BTY the cake is filled. Half lemon and half chocolate.

$50 is awfully steep. I looked it up in Zagat, which lists Druids for $30.

So if they try to charge us $50 for a dinner, we’ll just show them Zagat’s. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Or you could just not order $50 worth of food. 😉

$50 of nachos… hmmmm… _day-dreaming_ As long as they don’t put no funky swiss on those tortilla chips. What was WITH that? 🙂

[and of course I realize this place probably won’t have nachos, so I’m preparing myself psychologically for making a leap into other food domains… your support is appreciated]

I have to work late (ah, the joys of being a Career Girl) so I won’t show up until about 7:15/7:30 pm. Do feel free to put aside some cake for me.
