The Amazing Race...2nd Place and a Gnome!

If you watched "The Amazing Race" last nite, you know my fav team, Terence and Sarah, finished in 2nd place! And one of the clues involved the cute "Travelocity Gnome". I had the pleasure to "meet" the Gnome in person, as it made a guest appearance at the viewing party!
Another highlight from last nite, was Terence wearing a top from my menswear line.....doesn't he look great???Don't forget to watch The Amazing Race, Sundays @ 8pm on CBS!
More info on Terence and Sarah can be found here.

Then and Now......

My bff, Pamela has moved back to New York after living abroad for 19, (19!), years, and I couldn't be happier! Before she moved, we worked together and our days revolved around food....breakfast, mid morning snack, a gigantic lunch, (with desert!), and then an afternoon snack. How we didn't weigh 300lbs is beyond me......both of us were thinner than we are now and of course, thought we were "fat". Oh, the stupidness of youth!
Our lunches were legendary. We worked in the garment center and would have lunch regularly at the now defunct, B. Altman's on 5th Ave. The top floor was the restaurant and it was us and all of the old ladies that shopped there. There was this adorable little french waiter, (who looked exactly like the one in the cartoons). I mean, he was the human version of the cartoon waiter!
We would eat these huge triple decker sandwiches, and finish with chocolate mudd cake for desert. The amount of food we consumed still amazes me........now we've designated just one day a week to eat like the old days.......
Anyway, I previously posted a pic of us from those days, but here it is again, along with a pic of us now.......I think we look exactly the same! LOL!Then.......
And now......

The Amazing Race.....

Sooo.....my friend Terence is on The Amazing Race, and I've been going to the weekly viewing party hosted by him and Sarah, (well, I missed one, but only because I was out of town). Anyway, it's been a blast watching the show with them, and getting some "behind the scenes" details during the commercials..........
Terence and Me at the first Viewing party!Me with Sarah and Terence at the third viewing party!
Now, I don't know how they did, or where they finished, but I think they're the team to beat! Don't forget to watch, Sunday @ 8pm on CBS! Check them out here.
