starting off the New Year right!

Holidays are over...back to work...was busy, but sure had some fun things going on this month. First Friday was a "manager offsite," most of us thought we would do some work, some fun...but was surprised with all fun :) Mani and Pedi's at Green Valley Ranch

Lunch at Brio, lots of reminiscing and laughing about how crazy we all are :)

then had my first High Tea experience at the Madarin Oriental Hotel in City Center, was so nice and fancy...had a range of teas and marteanis...thought it would be more like a tasting of teas, but we all tried each others
and lovely little desserts...it was delightful :) fun girls day out, we're lucky to have a management team of all girls
was fortunate to have another outing at City Center, this time at the Cosmopolitan, both our first time to go...very pretty hotel...new hot spot I would say...this time for dinner with one of Jay's favorite reps Brad from k-swiss and one of our not so favorite buyers Aaron :)

Blue Ribbon Sushi...what stood out about this place was not just the food but the atmosphere, the music wasn't too loud, just mellow still fun
all appetizers were amazing, didn't get a picture of the black cod but that was the best, 2nd was the tartar with my quail egg

sushi spread...all was good but that white one in front, I didn't try it cause it didn't look good and I was right ;)
and the best bread pudding ever, ginger bread pudding! The other dessert was a chocolate bruno, also good but not as good as the pudding
after dinner we were able to catch aloe blacc perform, liked him
