This past Thursday, I joined some of my favorite Philly bloggers – and a few new friends from Mom Central – at Morimotos in Philly.
For once, Sarah, Jo-Lynne and I arrived early with no drama. We tend to have unplanned adventures when we travel together, which generally end with us arriving late for things
So the evening was off to a good start! We even had time to snap a picture outside Morimotos:
We walked up to the cozy, upstairs lounge and first up was to try some Aquafina FlavorSplash! There were six flavors: Lemon, Grape, Mixed Berry, Strawberry Kiwi, Peach Mango, and Raspberry. I wasn't a fan of the grape (I don't like grape drinks) or the lemon, but I loved the Peach Mango and the Berry. YUMMY! I confess both to not drinking enough water and not really liking plain water very much, so I enjoyed trying this new (calorie-free!) alternative!
And look how cute the tasting display was:
How fun is that?!! Then came the food.
Oh. My. Word!
I'm not a huge sushi connoisseur, but this was amazing. The lobster appetizer was out of this world and so were the dumplings. And then I hit the sushi hard!! It was hands out the best sushi I've ever had. We all had a great time eating the fantastic food, hanging out and catching up face to face.
Then we made an important discovery: the Lychee Cosmopolitan. I would like to make a motion to make that the official cocktail of the Philly Social Media Moms. Oh, does Mom Central and Aquafina FlavorSplash know moms. Giving us a Mom's Night Out what the doctor ordered!! Thanks so much for the party, Ladies!!
Look at this great crew:
Front Row: Sarah, Heather, Mel, Jo-Lynne, Beth, Elizabeth;
Back Row: Holly, Teresa, Shannon, Debbie, Michelle, Sarah, and ME!

wrote this post after attending an event sponsored by Aquafina
FlavorSplash and Mom Central. I received FlavorSplash goodies and a
gift card as a thank you for posting.





Looks like you girls had fun! Its always nice to finally get to hang out with some “blogging” friends. Glad you had a great time.
I second the motion:)
It was great to see you Melissa and I hope we can get together at some fun events this summer. I’ve been drinking the water all week at school and am totally addicted. I was never a huge fan of flavored water before! Wish we would have had more time to chat, but the times goes by so quickly!
