E's Celebration

I took E out to dinner at the Old Red School House restaurant on Alt. 19. We had lunch there right before the owners closed for vacation and have been awaiting the seasonal opening. The inside is so very cute with lots of antiques for sale and fun things to look at while you wait for your food. Oh, and the food...amazing! E had the half rack of lamb and said it was perfect! I had the veal picata and it was so yummy. We did fairly well following our new way of eating and both of us only had the littlest bit of the carbs. We had great salads first and, after the meal, E got a Birthday Bread Pudding complete with a candle. The night was cooler so we got to ride with the top down (explaining the bad hair in the photo of the two of us...that is my story and I am sticking to it).

I've been scrapping up a storm and can't wait for the reveal on Oct. 1 at Creative Scrap Shack. Don't miss the October Bash Cyber Crop there on Oct. 19. It is shaping up to be 'booooolicious!"

The kids are all coming over today to cook for E. He has been sternly advised that he will NOT be allowed in the kitchen. Never fear, he has already done a 4 cheese macaroni dish and all they will have to do is put it in the oven. He can be such a stubborn guy sometimes!

I need to get some kits together for the upcoming MS crop (details on the left w/link)here in Oldsmar. It is sold out except for a couple of seats for Sat., if I am not mistaken. This is going to such fun. Kit N Kaboodle owners Gerri-anne and Lisa are coming up from Ft. Myers with Barb and Sondra and Gerri-Anne will be teaching a class on Friday night. My class is on Sat. night and is called "What I did on My Summer Vacation". It is really cute if I do say so myself!

Off to vacuum up some rolling balls of cat fur. Tis the season for shedding! Will post pics of the family celebration for E tomorrow. Have a great day!
