The trek for lemonade

Doesn't it seem like I keep reverting to food lately? I'm not terribly hungry or anything, and I hope no one loses to the diet war just because of my blog, maybe I should put a disclaimer...

Josh took me out today for mothers day, we don't like crowds and would much rather enjoy our day without waiting for lunch. So I was pretty desperate yesterday anyways, so we went shopping and I dragged Josh everywhere (I have way more energy than Josh, both my brother and I can run around, yes, run, Disney World, so that we see everything that we want to see, you'll have to ask me about it, sometime.) Anyways he was so sore, but he humored me, and we pulled out of the parking lot with no where to go. So I said, You know what, I want a lemonade. Where can we get a lemonade that is good from here? Josh was like, I don't know. So I suggested going downtown East Lansing, by campus, they have a lot of little shops, one is bound to have lemonade. But Josh was in the left turn lane, when he should of been in the right, so we turn left. We are over by the meridian mall, and he never thinks to turn around, though I suggest it. Like he will take directions from his wife.

So we decided to try panara, in frandor, and Josh wants bagels. We get closer and Josh decides, why not call Melissa, then you guys can meet up and I can go home. Yes that is what he said. Direct quote. So I called Melissa, and asked her where there was a good place for lemonade. It must of been the weirdest call, it was so random. So we talk about lemonade for 10 minutes, and she tells me Cosi, downtown east lansing, which you remember we originally started at the meridian mall and made a huge michigan block with the driving we just did. Good thing our car gets good gas miliage. Because we just wasted a ton of gas. Then Melissa said, so did you want to meet or anything? I'm like yeah, she's like, oh wait! I'm going to go pick up Jer, who was staying at their house for the weekend. Then she admits, I didn't know what we would do today, being Barney was out having fun and left his friend home with his wife, (that was my add in, hey it's my story) but this is perfect, she says.

So we meet up at Cosi. Josh and I ordered before they came, and on the menu, no lemonade. So we order an ice tea and strawberry smoothie. They told us our ice tea was in the case, so we grab it and voila! Lemonade! So we buy that too. I'll have to say I much rather have the strawberry smoothie at Cosi's than their lemonade, just in case anyone was wondering.

The point is, we drive way out of our way, talked to Melissa who dragged out Jer to see us, just so I could have a lemonade. How selfish is that? Oh well, it was great. Josh and I had a lot of fun yesterday, and we ended up having a rough night with the girls up all night long but somehow, that night is smoothed over with the time out together. Getting through today should be interesting.
