Today Merilee and I are leaving our children behind with our husband's and going to Phoenix. Why Phoenix? Well, her family is there and to be honest the thing that motivated us the most to go was this place called Elmer's. It's some Mexican food place that is supposedly seriously good grub. Yes, I know I'm a total foodie. The even funnier part is that the other thing we are doing is waiting in line for approximately four hours to have the best pizza in the United States. It better be good after waiting that long. And then there are the breakfast burritos that Merilee's mom will be making on Sunday morning for general conference.So besides my three food events (yeah, pathetic huh?) I am looking forward to reuniting with a friend I haven't seen in 5 years, going to a National Park and just hanging out in the sunshine with Merilee's sisters.
Have a mentioned that I have the best husband in the world who understands his wife passion for all things travel? (That's a completely different post)
Note: General Conference is a world-wide broadcast that happens twice a year in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The messages come from church leaders and are very inspiring. If you have cable you can find it on one of your stations. There are two sessions on Saturday 10:00 and 2:00 Mountain time, and 2 sessions on Sunday at the same times. I always come away from a conference weekend feeling renewed and uplifted.

Have sooo much fun! I'm like you, when we are going somewhere we always plan out what and where we are going to eat. It's very important!!
You are so lucky your husband can do that. Mine is way too busy. Have a super-dee-dooper time. Can't wait to hear about all this good food!
Sounds like so much fun! Enjoy!
Whooohooo! Can't wait to hear about it! Have fun!

Can't wait to hear about your trip! Hope you have a blast. How nice to get away. Enjoy!
You are one seriously lucky girl! I can't wait to hear your reviews of the food places. Best pizza in the country? Better than in Chicago? You'll have to get lots of pictures and give us all the details. Have fun!
Have a great weekend. I'm so excited for conference.
You have a wonderful time!!!!
Bring me back a burrito!
I'm so sad I am missing all the food trips, except the burritos of course. See ya on Saturday.
Oh man, that sounds FUN! I wish I could sneak in your suitcase.
BTW...I am also a total 'foodie' :)
I would LOVE to go on a foodie adventure. So fun! If you're ever in Eugene you have to go to Burrito Boy. It is heaven. You might already know about it
though:0) Have a blast!
Ohhh, a FOODIE adventure and one that involves traveling and seeing sunshine! I am so jealous! Have a great time!
I am interested in hearing your report. we just made reservations to fly to phoenix on November 8th.It's alway better to have advice from someone who has just been there.

I've always wanted to visit Arizona--especially as an escape to the bleary Oregon fall.
Have a great time!
I have to say i'm feeling a bit sad you're not coming out here. It was this time last year we were in Salem and Concord and Windsor. Hope we can reunite in all these places again someday.
