Halloween and somethings i've done lately

Quick update about my Halloween:

SUPER DUPER FUN Field of Terror: a farm where they transformed cornfields into haunter hayrides, haunted barn, and haunted corn field maze. :) It's like your all worst nightmares rolled into one, with abandoned buses/boats, zombies, dead animals, trailors, psychos, obstacle course... LOVE IT!

House party: Was really fun. met a super nice girl who talked about Jersey Shore and the whole italian american phenom with me a lot. and they served home-made taco's (yum).. then

Triumph: a brewery in Princeton. I FINALLY got to try the pumpkin ale, which was super yummy! not really made with pumpkins at all, but it tasted like October! and i entered the halloween contest as a 80's girl, where as my friend entered as a dead bride. It was good to meet new friends.

Sports bar in Princeton: again, a fun place to hang out and watch sports. the new people i met in the group were super nice and charming. we also checked out...

Twist: a yummy frozen yogurt place in downtown princeton. Did i say they serve mochi and tapioca in your frozen yogurt?? I can eat that stuff forever.

Alchemist and Barrister: a charming little restaurnat/bar in princeton. Must have been like a hundred years old. The decor is so retro with exposed red bricks and hardwood bar/floor. Serves kick-ass traditional food, like london-broil.

Halo Pub: NOT a pub that serves alcohol. Rather, the most famous is their ice cream. The best of the 3 places in princeton (compared to The Bent Spoon as well as Thomas Sweet). the ice cream cakes they serve come with smiley faces too. so delicious!

Winberie: likst Alchemist and Barrister, also a charming little antiquish looking bar/restaurant that serves really good italian food.

Tortugas: probably considered by the locals the best/authenic mexican in town. BUT, coming from California, my bar is a little higher. so i would say it's a 6 in my book. Not the best fish taco i've had but acceptable. There's plenty in baja california that can kick Tortuga's butt. I would say, leave the mexican food to the californians.

The Bent Spoon: a somewhat overpriced organic ice cream place that will burn a hole in your pocket.

Thomas Sweet: not a bad choice for machine whipped (?) ice cream but a bit on the sweet side for me. not sure if i ordered the wrong thing.

Sakura Express: love the big portion of fish, esp in their sashimi lunch/dinner. not super authentic but tolerable. Again, you can't compare everything to back home.

I think that's it..for Princeton for now. :)
