PUT YOUR GAME FACE ON

At this time of year, everyone seems to be obsessed with shopping (although since I am in retail, I could be biased).  Gifts seem to get harder and harder, because, lets face it, most of the people we know have everything and want for nothing.

Finding something special is hard to find.

Surprising me with a gift is unheard of...that being said...

Henry gave me a nutcracker!


Isn't he the cutest?

I thought the "m" stood for Merry and then he opened his mouth...

Out of the mouth of this babe came...




HENRY and HENRY and HENRY and a few I LOVE YOU CATHI M&Ms
that's right--it is his little face on that M&M

What did Henry have to say about his culinary mastepiece?

You guessed it!!


 ...and, diet be damned...I did...
down the rabbit hole!

A TALE OF TWO DINNERS

Two dinners.
Two nights.
Two extremes.
Morton's and Flashback Diner (the name speaks for itself).
Two things that I never thought would be said in a restaurant.

First to the General Manager of the Ft. Lauderdale Morton's:

"Would it be possible for you to ask the gentleman at the next table to quit watching porn on their phone?"

Second to the General Manager of the Flashback Diner at 9:15 prior to receiving our food (we arrived at 7:15)--did I mention it was an omelet?

Henry said:  "You do know that I have no intention of paying for this meal, should it ever arrive."

I am sure Henry will be thrilled to know we are going to Flashback Diner for Christmas Dinner--hopefully, they have begun cooking it now!!

Sometimes simpler is better.
