So yesterday was a rather tiring day. Woke up early to go with my impregnated Aunt to Ramona Elementary to help her with the climbing up and climbing down, moving this, lifting this. And also, to be there if anything happens, it being everyone's out for Spring Break. At least if the baby reports early and says "I'm here for duty." at least I'll be there to catch It. Aunty took me out to lunch at Baker's Square. We had a nice waiter. After lunch, home to change and then straight to work.

I love working with them. They're so much fun. We went out afterwards for dinner to this really really cool Italiano restaurant. We went to C&O Trattoria. We drove all the way down to Marin del Rey. We would have gotten there sooner if we didn't go the wrong direction. We were suppose to go South and we went North, past UCLA.

But arrived there in one piece though. You could smell the ocean. So nice. So windy. So cold. So many people. An hour wait. Thank goodness for heatlamps! We sat there and the restaurant past around plates of their warm "killer Garlic Rolls". Kelly: I'm telling you would love them! An hour later, they called me "Molly, your table is ready." Yes, Molly. It was too noisy for her to hear my name when I signed in for a table. Our waiter's name was Jamie. Rachel thought he was cute. He has blonde red curly hair, nice smile, fun personality, good sense of humor, lotsa energy and he's...on sale for 5 easy payments of $11.99!!

The atmosphere there is HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! They play actual Italian music. Every hour and a half, the waiters pass out the lyrics to.......THAT'S AMORE!

When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk down in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore

When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk down in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore
Lucky fella

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk down in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore, (amore)
That's amore


The whole restaurant, managers, waiters, busboys, receptionists, customers, everyone! comes out with wine glasses and starts to sing this song together and everyone goes around toasting everyone with smiles and wine. That restaurant has so much energy. It's far, but worth the fun experience!

Rachel needs the computer now. I gtg. :)
