After many changes and car switheroos we finally started our trek to California.
We made it as far as Barstow and have stopped for the night. Unfortunately Barstow does not have much to offer as far as food goes but we somehow we managed to still get in arguement about where to eat. Brandon wanted Bob's Big Boy because they have a "great brownie sundae" but everything else is terrible and I voted for anything other than Bob's Big Boy. Brandon had AJ on his side which made my mom the deciding vote. Mom chose Denny's so that's where we went.
The food was actually pretty good and Brandon, AJ, and I filled up on some kind of chicken tenders while AJ insisted on playing 20 questions. Things were going pretty well until my
mom made the fatal mistake of saying we could get dessert. And that's when the fun really began....
AJ wanted the Oreo Sundae, I chose the Caramel Apple Crisp, but Brandon made up his mind that he wanted not one but two desserts and gosh darn it he was justified in getting them because my mom turned him down on Bob's Big Boy.
My mom either didn't hear him or didn't believe that he would actually get two desserts but sure enough our waitress returned with mine and AJ's desserts and Brandon's strawberry milkshake and brownie sundae (hey he couldn't get the one at Bob's Big Boy so he had to make due). As he started the job of devouring his desserts he decided to switch up 20 questions a little bit and make us guess musicians (much to AJ's dismay). Brandon being the expert on all things music thought he would have this one in the bag but my mom gave him a run for his money. After a rough start (I completely messed up on giving clues about Eric Clapton which I am sure I won't live down) I came out victorious guessing almost all of Brandon's musicians!!!!! Hooray!!!
We spent close to two hours playing 20 questions musician style so needless to say tomorrow should be quite the interesting day especially since we get to go to LITTLE JOCKO'S!!!!

Countdown to Cali
T-1 day until we leave for California to visit family and, as my brother and I are constantly reminding my mom, to eat at Broadway Bagel at least five times in the four days we are going to be there.
It's always nice to see my family, but one of the things I really look forward to is eating some pretty amazing food most of which we had to leave behind when we moved to Vegas (my mom is a great cook and has kept us full and happy since we have been here). I get excited about eating at Broadway Bagel, Little Jocko's, or my Nana's awesome baked Mac & Cheese!
So with one day left I need to really figure out if I want the cheeseburger and chocolate milkshake or the fried burrito and chili dog at Little Jocko's!
