EP 262 Anne & Kelli talk snow storms in NY, Ft Lauderdale in chilly temps, live music, new trips ahead & so much more!

Join Anne & Kelli for their 262nd NEW episode of #ilovemywife podcast recorded remotely from their hotel room in Costa Rica! First, they catch you up on their facial recovery post-op and let you know their progress. Then they get into a very special Atlas Ocean Voyages event they were invited to at The Explorer's Club in NYC. It was all about launching a brand-new ship, The Atlas Adventurer, that has stable sails and will travel through Asia and Africa. They also headed to an after-party at The Carlyle Hotel and ended at their friend Gregg's apartment ordering McDonald's on a freezing NYC night. Next, they talk about more home time that involved a birthday party for friend & listener Laurie at a fun indoor adult only putt putt place called Swingers and dinner at The Smith in NOMAD. Then they had a HUGE snowstorm that filled their town with 19 inches of snow! They also had a fun dinner with besties Jon and Steve (owners of their merch company Sniff a Pickle) and actually made it to an anniversary party for friends Julie and Alissa where Kelli was overserved! Hear about the brilliant marketing plan by Morton's Steakhouse that Anne became obsessed with. It was called Bubbles and Bites and it was for "fry January" instead of 'dry January". It was basically a meal deal by Vueve Clicquot that included 2 sliders, truffle fries and either a glass of Vueve or a Belvedere Martini all for $23! All of the packaging was branded with the orange Vueve logos and it was delicious! It's all about the marketing because everyone in the bar was having the same meals! They also talk about watching the Live Skyscraper Climb on Netflix and how it caused too much anxiety for both of them. They did finally watch Come See Me in the Good Light, the documentary about poet Andrea Gibson and their untimely death from cancer. They highly recommend this beautiful film about a truly gifted artist that touched so many people in this world. Next they packed up for their trip to Ft Lauderdale for Anne's concert. Then hear all about the Ft Lauderdale trip that included lots of strip mall visits, a fire at a restaurant mid-meal, lunches and dinners with long-time friends, Anne's concert at Sunshine Cathedral that also included a kickass band with her MD William TN Hall and a local band all curated by drummer/podcast listener Julie Jacobs, a post-show huge line for photos with so many old and new friends in attendance and after party at Apt 9F (lesbian owned) in Wilton Manors that was so packed that they had to turn people away! The following day they always brunch with besties at Rosie's in Wilton and then headed to Miami for a night before flying down to Costa Rica for one night before boarding a Regent Cruise where Anne is headlining for the first time! Stay tuned for more info in the next episode on that adventure! Don't forget their merch store at www.sniffapickle.printavo.com/merch/ilmw for lots of options!
