Apartment Sweet Apartment

Home is where the husband and the kitties are, and I'm home. I asked the desk agent at Midway what time the flight came in, and it was a good thing I did -- apparently the 22:45 time is when it gets to its final stop; it was due in at Albuquerque at 21:45. The kitties have been foozled and spoiled. I also got Sluggy art in the mail, and Andy and I got cute Hawaiian bears from [livejournal.com profile] turnberryknkn. And now it's time to go flop into bed and sleep off the jet lag -- I was literally in three time zones today -- took off in eastern, landed in central, and then took off again, this time to land in mountain.

Oh, and for the record -- Carolina brunch is still incredible, and they still remembered us. As did the USAir folks at the airport whom I visited and to whom I gave flowers before heading to the Southern airlines gate. Also, I really miss Harris Teeter flowers. I really didn't have enough for the second leg on Wednesday, and had to give everyone closed flowers, which made me feel awful. But from Harris Teeter I got more than enough. I'll probably try somewhere other than Smith's for the flowers on the 23rd.

So which "Carolina" is this at which you have brunch? My first thought is "Carolina Inn", but I've never been there for brunch, and technically you could maybe mean brunch somewhere on campus. ;) But I've never heard UNC dining halls to be known for their food...

The Carolina Inn. Their Sunday brunches are incredible (reservations recommended), and also very expensive. Even when we lived 2.6 miles away we only went on very special occasions to make sure it was always a treat. Someday I'll tell the story of how UNC lured Andy (and, in a much tougher move, me) to Chapel Hill for his grad work. It involved Sunday brunch, among other things.
