My summer job for the day!

Hello from Indiana! I am out here visiting my awesome sister and brother-in-law here in Indy! We have had a smashing few days visit so far and I am here for yet another week! I do, however, have a few photos and a small blogging story to cover that occurred before heading out, and since I hate to go out of order, and I hate mixing blog stories, I have to do this one first. :)

Monday the 8th or so of June was my last official official day of work even though school got out the Thursday before! So, I scheduled my trip to Indy for Tuesday night, that way I would have one day of sleeping in and packing and cleaning before heading out. On Tuesday morning, however, my plans changed. I friend of mine owns a pigeon control place and knowing I had the day off, he called asking if I could be his little helper for the day. . . I thought, why not? So I agreed, quickly changed, and headed out for a long days work.

Upon arrival at his office, my cute summer outfit was quickly changed for a hideous ensemble that made me look like a boy! But I toughed it out and we were off to Ceaser's Palace to do whatever it is we were doing for the day.

If my story had ended there, however, I probably would not be blogging about it, but that is when my story actually begins! After doing a wee bit of set up, I was just taking in a view of the strip, when out of the corner of my eye I saw the sign for "Serendipitys." Serendipitys is a famous place out in NYC that supposidly makes amazing frozen hot chocolates, and being a girl that was truly saddened at the loss of Dairy Queen's frozen hot chocolates, I have been wanting to try theirs which frankly had to be better than good old DQ's! This past Christmas my dad had even looked up the recipe online and our family time consumingly tried to make these frozen hot chocolates that didn't really turn out as we had hoped. :(
Anywhoo. .. I dragged my friend over in that direction to see if this was in fact the same place. And it was! Who knew and what are the odds that I was actually living in the same city as a famous restaurant that I have been wanting to try?!

Being that I have such a great friend, he saw how how excited I was about it, and immediately dragged me in for an early lunch. The food was yummy (somewhat expensive though- yipes!) and though the frozen hot chocolate was definitely a winner, I am not sure it would have been worth a trip out to New York just for that!



So though my pictures of Serendipity's are in a heinous boy's outfit, it was definitely worth my hard day of working-- HA HA!
