Happy birthday, Mom!
Last night my sister and I treated our mom for her 60th birthday to the full session, 50-minute foot reflexology treatment at Warwick Foot Spa and Tea Bar, followed by dinner at Grappas Ristorante right down the road.
Full disclosure: I’d never had a reflexology treatment before. Having said that, I do think I’ll be trying to get a few more of these in from time-to-time from now on. The foot reflexology treatment is basically all of my favorite stuff about a massage, without having to actually take all my clothes off, which honestly I just can’t be bothered with. They massage your shoulders and neck, your arms and hands, feet and legs, and cover your eyes with a delicious-smelling warm towel during the whole thing.
It’s pure loveliness.
Dinner at Grappas was Italian, which is of course our favorite. Pasta. Wine. Boston Creme Pie. Grappa. What could be better?
^^ You get tea before your reflexology treatment, too — so cute!
^^ Whatever in the world kind of cheese this was, I would like it in my life every day, please.
^^ Eggplant rollatini appetizer.
^^ This linguini with clams is exactly what everyone needs. Trust me.
^^ Complimentary shots of grappa at the end of the meal was icing on the cake, so to speak.
It was a successful outing all the way around, my friends. I highly recommend if you’re in the Warwick area!
Chris heads into New York tomorrow (yay!), and we’re hitting up my second wedding in as many weekends on Saturday in Tarrytown.
I can’t wait.
Bis bald, my friends!
