HLS Day One: Food, Swag & Fun!

by Jennifer on August 22, 2011

I had the pleasure of road tripping’ it down to Philadelphia with Sarah and Kaitlin (two of my all time favorite people ever). I would say the 4 hour ride made us delirious, but lets be real, we’re delirious anyway! ;)

After checking in, we walked right over to Reading Terminal Market to check out all of the foodie hype we had heard so much about.

It was like we had died and went to foodie heaven.

As soon as Kaitlin saw this pig, she knew she had to have a picture with it.

After we ate, we went back to the hotel for the HLS check in. We chatted away with old friends and new, and then went back to our room to investigate the swag.

I got lots of stuff to eat (that sentence was way funnier if you have watched the movie Biodome and are mildly obsessed enough to know all of the lines. You’re welcome).

I have so many pics from HLS that I have to break this down to multiple posts. Next up, the cocktail party! Stay tuned! :)

I am SO excited I got to see you — even though our time together was fleeting — and also happy that I didn’t break you with my over-enthusiastic hug :)

It was great meeting you this weekend!! I’m uber jealous of your crazy height and ability to pull off insane heels. Just sayin’.Hopefully next time we’ll be able to chat for longer than a nanosecond!
