Hmmmm......I really didn't want to get up on time this morning, but with the schedule we had layed out for ourselves, it was necessary to my sagging hulk out of the horizontal position and into a struggling vertical position (still sagging, though).
After some wonderful, steaming French Roast coffee, some great artisanal bread which I toasted and then buttered and put on some blueberry jam, I spent a few minutes reading the NYTIMES online, and a brief look at the Washington Post before the 1st Lady made her appearance in the kitchen. After moving a bit quicker, we soon were on our way to Cape Girardeau to once again check out the various refrigs that were available to visually and physically inspect. Did we make a decision???
Hell no! Sooooo, after much discussion and more discussion, we decided to have a little lunch at My Daddy's Cheesecake Cafe and Bakery. WOW....this was the first time we had eaten here....but, it will NOT be the last time. It was excellent!!!! A great choice is provided from coffees, to pastries, to sandwiches, and soups........WOW!!! I ordered the chicken on ciabatta with sweet red roasted peppers smothered in melted cheeses........perfect!!!! Sooooo good!!!! The 1st Lady enjoyed her chicken salad on a croissant, but she kept saying that she like the flavors of mine much better than hers......hmmmmm, did I make the right choice???? YEP!!!
We ended the lunch with one serving, which we shared, of a wonderful, moist Red Velvet Cake......OMG. It was sooooooooo good!!! Once again, all of you in the Cape Girardeau area......go, go, get yourself there for some wonderful food!!!!! (They ARE open for breakfasts)
The afternoon was spent visiting with Michael....and it was a great visit for all of us. Returning to F'town, we battled driving rain the entire 100 miles.....making the already blacktop highway even blacker....and with it being a new surface, the lines are not painted yet....and it took forever to make the trip back up into the hills to F'town!
A good day.......even though the weather became nasty......and it is suppoed to be a wet 38 degrees with 35mph winds from the north tomorrow....... but not to matter......
LIFE IS REALLY, REALLY GREAT!!!!!.....And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!!
