The perfect Saturday!

When you wake up to sunshine and warm weather you can't help but think of how to spend this beautiful day. I got up at 9:00 to 5 phone calls from my best friend. She had the same feeling I did, we decided to go for a walk then spend the morning shopping. I know it is a beautiful day, but I am a girl after all, shopping is a big part of the weekend criteria. We wanted to go for a walk but instead we went to the park and acted like little kids. We played on the playground and then got on the swings for a little while. After our park excursion we went to the mall and spent twenty minutes shopping. Just because I am a girl does not mean I need to spend five hours at the mall. After the mall we decided to have a nice leisurely lunch. We went to Houlihan's and were able to sit on there outside patio. We got to soak in the sun and enjoyed the beautiful weather. I had the greatest lunch, for those of who that have never been to Houlihan's there is an appetizer called 'shrooms that are to die for. It is a large mushroom cap filled with garlic cream cheese, then dipped in panko bread crumbs and fried golden brown. It is not the most heart healthy food in the world but it is truly delicious. Take some time out of your day and enjoy the beautiful weather. Tomorrow it is supposed to be cold and rainy. Today is the day to get out and enjoy the warm sunshine. Happy Saturday!!!!

Concert time!

The weather is changing and the days are getting longer. That can only mean one thing, summer is approaching very soon. Days at the beach, picnics in the park, and t-shirts and tank tops is something to look forward to after the horribly cold winter we have had. For me the best part about the summer is all the concerts. There is nothing better than the anticipation of seeing your favorite band with all of your friends. Concerts let you take a vacation from normal life. For three hours you get a chance to be a little kid again. You are aloud to scream your heart out and sing as if you were in your own shower because there are thousands of other people singing around you. Concerts give you the opportunity to relax and let yourself go. It is one day where you can forget about reality and indulge yourself in something that truly makes you happy. Going to a concert is one of life's greatest pleasures and this summer there is a show for everyone to indulge themselves in. Here is a list of all the summer concerts that will be coming to an arena or stadium near you. Here are a few of my favorite concert picks.


The Killers have become one of the most popular bands over the past two years. Everyone has been in a bar or club or even in their own car screaming "Somebody Told Me' or "Mr Brightside" imagine being able to scream your heart out in the middle of thousands of people dancing and screaming around you.



Imagine being in this crowd.


Billy Joel will have everyone singing like a "Piano Man" it is one of the most anticipated concerts of the season.




Piano Man live




This concert is what I have been waiting for all year. "Dave Matthews Band" tours almost every summer and I can't get enough of him. For me he is the greatest performer of all time. I wanted to get tickets to see him perform with Tim Reynolds on April 22 at Radio City music hall, but it had sold out within minutes. Dave Matthews has one of the greatest fan followings of our time. For all of you Dave fans out there I am sure you know what I am talking about. He has designed a fan club called "The Warehouse" and is very committed to giving money to charities. He does not let companies sponsor his show because half of the money the band gets from ticket sales goes to different charities. Dave Matthews is one the greatest performers I have had the privilage to see. I have been following him since I was a senior in high school and I still look forward to seeing him every summer. It is the biggest event of the summer for me and ten of my friends. We prepare for this concert months in advance. This summer he is playing at the Tweeter Center in Camden,NJ August 7-8. This concert is something I have been waiting for all year and I can't wait to go!

My favorite DMB song of all time.
