Advanture in Manhattan

Yesterday, I met my old friend, Alex, in Union Square at 12:30 on 14th Street in front of the Whole Foods grocery store. Then, Alex took me to a lovely restaurant called Friend of a Farmer to have brunch. The restaurant is so well-regarded that there were many people waiting in line. Fortunately, the line went really fast so we didn't wait very long. I read the menu...everything looked delicious. So I let Alex order. At last, we had pumpkin pancake, egg grow and fantastic coffee for brunch. The area around Friend of a Farmer is very cute! I love that feeling! Its quite, peace....not like Time Square, full of people, ..too crowded, too noisy. After the brunch, Alex took me to a big Barnes & Noble bookshop near Union Square to look for The Lord Of The Rings 50th Anniversary Edition, my dream book! Finally we found it! Aside from my giant LOTR book, I also bought a Mamma Mia soundtrack for my mom, I know she'll love it. Then, we went to shoe shop to find snow boots for me. Actually, shopping was not what I cared most, the most important thing was that we talked a lot yesterday. There were so many things to talk about! I was really nice to see Alex yesterday! This Thursday is thanksgiving, and I'm going to her home in New Jersey. I'm really looking forward to meet her soon!
