Vegas Vacay

Got back from Vegas earlier this week.  Enjoyed spending time with family.  The first night was my one and only lucky night.  I was on my last $3 of money budgeted for gambling that night and this happened...



Then all these pennies came...



My sister joined the party and it was off to Caesar's Palace for a little bit of shopping at Anthropologie.



Then it was time to hit Serendipity and try their famous frozen hot chocolate.  It was a very sweet but cool treat for a warm Vegas day!







Bellagio was gorgeous as usual.  There were tulips and giant bees covered in flowers everywhere.  It was a beautiful spring display.














We hit The Cosmopolitan one night to check out the Wicked Spoon buffet.  The decor of the hotel is ultra cool and modern.







The buffet got a thumbs up from us.  Well worth the $35.  We got there shortly before it opened and there was already a line.  Love the presentation of the food.  Shrimp on grits was a favorite, as well as the gelato bar. 







The next day, we had lunch at Todd English's Olives restaurant at Bellagio. 



The butternut squash ravioli was sweet and tasty.  The picture doesn't look that appetizing, but it was delicious.  The table next to us was having the flat bread, which looked really good. 




Of course if you stay downtown, you can always get your fill of Lappert's ice cream, butterfish, and oxtail soup.






So long Vegas.  I need to save money so I can come visit you again.
