Yesterday, my Godfather took me out for a birthday lunch in Philadelphia. Grams couldn't make it because she went on vacation to Maine, but I was allowed to invite Martin. I had an awesome meal with two of my favorite people. I selected the restaurant
Le Bec Fin , the first two pictures below shows how elegant the decor is inside the relatively small restaurant. I read rumors saying how they may be closing down temporarily in the spring. That's mostly why I wanted to go there, but it also helped that we made a pit stop at Anthropologie before lunch so I could use my 15% off birthday coupon.

Then we went to Reading Terminal Market to pick up many goodies. Dad got cookies, bread, deli meat, cupcakes, rice krispie treats, bagels, a muffin and anything else I wanted from the busy-busy market. We left the market with our hands full and pockets almost empty. It was super busy on a Saturday afternoon, the traffic going into Philadelphia looked horrific as we drove passed it going home.

We had a few more stops before heading back to Newark, but it was quite a fun and eventful day.
