Day 111 of 365: Holy Moly!


This was a real gingerbread house inside the lobby of the hotel. I'm glad I waited till the morning to take this photo since it meant I didn't have any random people hanging around in the background. The receptionist said that the kitchen cooked gingerbread for two months straight to make enough cookies for the house!! It was really amazing! Inside, you could see a little teddy bear family with a Christmas tree and everything. To give you an idea of scale, I could have walked in through the doorway there with just a slight ducking of my head. Oh, and I'm 5'9".

Day 110 of 365: They really do this!

Chocolates waiting for me on my pillow! I haven't eaten them yet. I think I'll wait till this weekend so I can pretend I'm back at the Ritz! Hehe.

Day 109 of 365: CHEATER!

So, Saturday, I was just uninspired.... I didn't take one photo. :( I realized this a few minutes after midnight, of course! Gah! So, days 109 and 110 are a twofer. Sunday night, the running shop I work at had its annual Christmas party. It takes place at the Ritz Carlton Lake Oconee. We are treated to a WONDERFUL dinner (the best crème brulee I've ever had!) and a night at the Ritz! Needless to say, I had a great time. I swear I have been out of the house before, but I had to giggle when I walked into the bathroom and saw this phone! It reminds me of the episode of Friends when Joey has just received his first paycheck from working on Days of Our Lives and has a phone installed in his bathroom. Chandler is the first to say, "please, don't ever call me from that phone!" Me, I was thinking of who I should call first! :D
