Lunch at Joseppi's Market and Deli

Look at us!  I thought it happened again!  When Mom picked me up we were AGAIN wearing the same colors!  I couldn't imagine Karan would also be wearing this color, but it was only four days ago we all showed up in black and white outfits!

Whew!  Close but no cigar.  She's wearing a springy yellow.  BTW...Does Karan remind you of anyone??????*

 Karan and I found this deli a few weeks ago.  Unfortunately we found it right after lunch so we couldn't sample anything but made a pact that this would be our next destination lunch with Mom!  

And here we are!  We were having fun but missing Patty and Janet. 

Mom takes such a good picture.  I think I may have to put this one on her Facebook!
   

Sisters....sisters....There were never such devoted sisters....haha!  We're beaming over our good fortune at discovering such a great little local family owned restaurant.   The wine was divine. Both our glasses were from freshly opened bottles. 

But it was time to get down to business!  So many awesome choices!



After much good natured hassling with the waiter over the wine choices and amounts, Mom settled for ice water...then she brilliantly remembered that a cold beer in a frosted mug was really what she wanted.

It would be fabulous with her corned beef sandwich! 

Can't you just imagine how great this tasted??

We were actually quite popular today with the staff and even the owner of this fabulous Deli, Joseppi himself came out to pose with Mom. She makes friends everywhere!  Our smiling waiter is behind them...who was tipped quite well for being so patient with us!

It was a gorgeous day and after lunch we wandered two doors down to the bakery and chose mini cakes for dessert to share.  Then three doors back was a cute little thrift shop.

  This is quite a charming little corner on Hwy 19 in New Port Richey, FL.   

I'll be posting a restaurant review later, so I'll put a link here when it's published.  



*Jackie Kennedy?  Look again.  I know you'll see it!

Hi Jeanne Sweetie...
Oh my goodness just look at you and your beautiful Momma. How sweet that your minds think alike and you have a tendancy to wear the same colors. I am so LOL. My Momma and I do the same thing. (I only get back to Oklahoma once a year, with my job for leave, and we always seem to wear the same colors, one day the very same shirt, bought over 1300 miles away. Imagine that one.)

You both look gorgeous in coral. It is your signature color I do believe. Love you precious Momma's smile and I can see why she makes friends everywhere she goes. She is a doll.

Can't wait to see photos of the bakery and the little cakes that you all chose. Sounds yummy.

What treasures did you find at the thrift store? It is my favorite place to go and shop. I have several here in Phoenix that I love to go to. Wish I lived close and could have joined you gals. Loads of fun for the day.

Country hugs and much love, Sherry

Future Non Scary Trunk or Treat Ideas

Image
We had a Family Fun Night at our church on Wednesday Oct 31 and the public was invited to participate via flyers and signs.  The two hour fun night had several event areas.  In the sanctuary the teens had a fun 10 minute skit they put on every half hour of the evening.  The one side of the church's parking lot had a huge bouncy house and a dozen or so carnival games with prizes and the other side of the church on the parking lot we had a Trunk or Treat.   I participated on the Trunk or Treat event and unfortunately was so busy I didn't get over to the other events for photos. I was able to photograph some of the other decorated trunks while they were setting up to get future ideas.  It was my first time of participating in this kind of event although my grandkids have gone to them in years past.   I charged it up a bit with some extras at the last minute, like lights and some other decorations.   I repurposed my house decor for one evening...so I didn't

Disney World's Polynesian Resort Hotel

When we first arrived at Disney World we took the boat over to the Magic Kingdom.  Mr. Bill remarked, as we passed the Polynesian Resort, he never had any desire to stay there.  It looked boring to him from the outside.  I hadn't thought much about it, but I did like the lit torches when we passed by on the monorail.  I decided this trip, since we had a free day, we would stop in and tour the three hotels on the line.  We toured the Grand Floridian , the Polynesian Resort and the Contemporary Resort From a distance it doesn't look too exciting.  I could understand his lack of enthusiasm.   When we stepped off the monorail however, the entrance was incredibly gorgeous.  The waterfall was something we hadn't noticed as it was somewhat hidden from the view of the passengers riding.  It was framed by colorful blooms and multiply kinds of foliage.  Completely setting the stage for a visit in the South Seas.   Inside the decor was tropical and spacious with o
