Linens Anyone?

Today was a fun day of folding linens at our new location in Ocean City. We folded over 150 sets of linens!

These linens are ready for summer 2012. They are excited about where they will be headed. Lbi? Stone Harbor? Sea isle? Avalon? Or up north in the lavallette area? They dont care.They are just looking forward to making your vacation more relaxing and enjoyable.

If this wasnt exciting enough, we got a shout out from the Martha stewart show with guidance on how to fold a fitted sheet.

This is just the 1/2 of it. Folding fun will continue again soon. Maybe Martha Stewart will come down and help!

Two of Our Favorites

Saturday was quite a day for eating!  I've been craving Mariners Cove in Brielle for some time.  It just so happened to be 9:30 on a Saturday and we weren't sure if  we had a chance to get a table.  For those that haven't been there,  the wait crazy on a weekend in the summer (and sometimes in the off season).   We lucked out!  We immediately got a table! Yeah!   I quickly ordered my favorite omelette, the South Jersey.  This is fairly normal with porkroll, tomato and cheese but may of the other omelette options are wild and crazy.

Later in the day, my friend and sister stopped at Surf Taco in Manasquan for lunch.  Wheneever a friend comes to visit, I usually take them to Surf Taco since its delicious and an awesome restaurant.   For lunch, the Hawaiian Salad was calling my name.  This is always good.  

Depite all the good food during the day, I'm glad we stayed in and made dinner!

Cape May Visit

Following our meeting at Diamond Beach, we stopped in Cape May for a walk and quick bite.  We couldnt believe Fudge Kitchen was open in the middle of winter.  They even had someone outside giving out samples!

We  then stopped at our favorite spot in Cape May, Congress Hall.  We checked out each of the stores and the lobby.  

After working up an appetite, we had lunch at Tisha's.  Tisha's has been on our list for some time now but we didn't get there till now.   We loved their New England Clam Chowder and the BLT with Avocado.    

Fudge!

Ocean City Visit

We spent most of the day today getting the new store in Ocean City in shape for the upcoming Summer.  

We did take a  break to grab one of our favorite sandwiches at Primo.  The "Bada Bing" is delicious.  Its chicken cutlet with broccoli rabe and provolone.  In the off season we don't live near a Primo so we are lucky when we can get to Ocean City.   After we stopped by to chat with the owner of Animal House, our favorite pet store at the shore.

The Grand At Diamond Beach

We had the pleasure of visiting The Grand at Diamond Beach.  We were asked to discuss our rental items and services for vacationers renting at The Grand.

We had a great meeting with Ashley, vacation manager at The Grand.  Ashley took us on a tour of several rental properties.   Each of them were beautiful from the layout to the flooring to the decor.  We also checked out their amenities including their private beach and infinity pool.  The property and location is great for vacationers interested in the best of Cape May, private beaches and some of the fun in Wildwood.

Birthday fun at the Jersey Shore


My birthday is today and I'm so lucky to spend time with my loved ones on the special day.  Since this is our off season - we were able to take the day off to enjoy, enjoy and enjoy!  

My mom stayed over our place in Manasquan the night before following the move to our new location in Ocean City.  We got the day started right with plans for breakfast.  We initially intended to try the Breakers in Spring Lake.  They are unfortunately closed during the week in the winter so we had to come up with something.  

I quickly remembered Toast in Asbury Park. I've been wanting to try this for some time.  My favorite meal of the day is breakfast so I dont mess around when it comes to a good menu.  Toast did not disappoint.         The restaurant is decorated very nicely and was pretty busy for a Thursday am.  I was impressed with several items on the menu including the Red Velvet Pancakes and the  Root Beer Pancakes special.  Really?!  How cool is that?  My "one year older" boring self got the California Scramble with Sour Dough toast.  It was delish. The grape tomatoes and the yummy potatoes made the dish.  My mom was equally happy with her meal.  She suggested checking out the bathrooms.  I didnt go in so I dont know what I'm missing but she thought they were cute.
I will definitely be back at Toast soon.
