Who says you can't go home...

I am going home this weekend! I get to see my mom! I get to see my sister! I get to see my gorgeous and nauseatingly adorable nieces! I hope to have (more) pictures of them to post when I get back.

Reasons I love going to Syracuse:

1. Seeing my family

That's all I've got. I'm not gonna lie, Syracuse doesn't have a ton goin on right now. We have noticed this trend that every time we drive to Syracuse, we find ourselves entering into a gray, clouded area. Seriously, we're only 2 hours away, how can the weather be consistently that much worse there? I can't explain it, but it's true. I am loyal to the 'Cuse, I will always love the 'Cuse deep down in my heart. But if we're being honest here, the 'Cuse is kind of hurting. Fayetteville (suburb where the majority of my family lives) on the other hand continues to exceed my expectations.

Reasons I love going to Fayetteville:

1. King David's - has the best hummous and best falafel of any place in the world. No really, the world
2. Wegman's - do I really need to explain?
3. Cold Stone - yes, it's true, the 'ville has a Cold Stone
4. Friendly's - not only is there a Friendly's in the 'ville, it is within running distance of my mom's house. AND it has held many precious memories...early morning breakfasts...late breakfasts that you manage to sneak in just before they switch to their lunch menu...and late night ice cream sundaes. Ahhh the good old days.

I just realized all of these reasons are food-related. You can make your own conclusions about that.
