OK... now I feel like a jerk. Since you all changed the week for ME!
I googled and calculated and it's a two hr drive WITHOUT traffic from my house. So once I pick up the kids from the bus, take them to my in laws, drive to Tom's River in traffic, I will miss the shop tour and not arrive til 7pm-ish then once we gab, eat and hang out, I will not get home til close to midnight. Plus my kids have started this bad habit of NOT sleeping on my in laws couch, so they stay up and watch TV til I get there. It will make for a very bad TUESDAY!
So sorry for bailing, but I will wait for the weekend FNO in Jersey... maybe next summer!

We are still on for Monday, October 26th even though Heather can't make it! :tongue: (We'll miss you!)
So far we have Tracy & Mike, Becky & Guest, Dad & Me. I've reached out to some other florist friends, just waiting to hear back. Have not heard from Adam, Diane, Jackie....Hope you kids can make it!!!

but we're meeting at your shop first, right? Or straight to the food?
Anyone who can make it to my shop is more than welcome - then off for a fabulous meal. :spam:
Laura Crane & her business partner Maureen from Added Touch Florist from Brick, NJ will be joining us on Monday night. I've known Laura since I was in high school. Looking forward to her and Maureen joining us.

Had a great meal and conversation last night. Thanks so much Pam
I thought the rolex shoe theory rather interesting. I wonder what an hour glass and sandles would evoke.

I'm coming up for air - my pos crashed thursday and still working the bugs out!!!
We had a great time last night. It was a cozy group. Paul was the only dude so he had to endure quite a bit. Got some dating tips from Navybrat about shoes and watches (sorry can't explain - had to be there!!!:loopy) Tracy did take some pictures. Navybrat took over the reins of being the new official Browniegirl!!! We did manage to get two new recruits. They are not on FC but we are trying to get them to come over to the dark side. Laura & Maureen really seemed to enjoy the group. Pam was wearing a kick@ss zebra jacket. Pam, you're just lucky I didn't steal it!!!lol
Who is in charge of setting up the next fno? Any takers?

It was a fun night! The food was awesome and the company delightful! I was three pounds heavier on the scale this morning! I really splurged and the brownie put me over the deep end!
Missed ya...Adam, Heather & Joukje! Just ain't the same without you! Really missed Tracy's hubby, Mikey...I had to flirt with the waiter! BTW-good try on the pics, Trac...but you just don't get into it the way Mikey does!
LOL! I look f'd up, huh? I'll get you later, baby bro'! I need to chat with you and make sure you are taking care of yourself! Hugs!
Dating advice 101 lesson is really rather simple. All suitors must wear really nice watches and shoes! Paul's timex didn't cut it! I'm sure he breathed a great sigh of relief!
Always fun hanging out with FlowerChat buds! Looking forward to our first get together next year! We can always do Izzie's again in Medford. We were still talking about the crab balls last night!
Thanks for a great evening!
