My Birthday

I had a great birthday. I started celebrating the day before by shopping for new New Balance shoes that I wear all the time. Then I went to Perkins and had my favorite blueberry pancakes with whipped cream. Then I did more shopping at the Fareway store on my way home. I picked up a few favorites I can't get at home. It was a beautiful sunny day and I had a wonderful time. Then on my Birthday, I went to the wedding of friends at our church and they had a beautiful wedding and a wonderful buffet. It was another gorgeous sunny day. On Sunday, I attended church and then took in the movie "Jersey Boys", however, I thought the language was awful. I celebrated with supper at the Pizza Ranch. They not only have great pizza but wonderful broasted chicken and potatoes, mashed potatoes and gravy and a huge salad bar.

Chinese Restaurant

We have a new Chinese restaurant in town. It is a great addition to our little town. My sister came up one Saturday and we went to lunch there. It is decorated really cute. The buffet had a great many choices on it and we had a very good lunch. I don't often eat Chinese but I love their sweet and sour and it was so good. I had some dishes I had never tried before and I think the restaurant has a real winner there. We used to have a Chinese place that closed and everyone was very disappointed as it did a big business but the family who ran it broke up and closed the restaurant. It was a big loss to the town so I am glad this new one has opened up.

Friday Night Fish Fry

We always go to the fish fry on Friday nights, put on by the Knights of Columbus. It is a regular buffet and so much good food. They have potatoe chips, applesauce, cinnamon apple slices, celery sticks, little carrots, cole slaw, beef & noodles, scalloped potatoes, mashed potatoes and gravy, hot pork and beans, green beans, chicken and 3 kinds of fish, rolls and butter and wash it down with water, milk or coffee. All you can eat and go back as often as you wish for $7 each. Can't beat that. Have to be careful and not overeat.
