Month: July 2024

Today for lunch we stopped at Root’s Place. Just like their sign. It was just burgers and a little more.

Mac ‘n cheese for Little Pea. Fried cheese curds with fry sauce for me. See the manager in the back working away on his laptop? Brought back many memories. I’m thrilled we sold our stores. Thrilled I don’t have to worry about employees and if they are going to show up tomorrow morning to open the store. So happy!

I found this place a few weeks ago and was so excited to come here.

Look at that peach sunday. It was so delicious. Fresh peaches and sweet ice cream. It was perfect! I sure miss peach season.

Bryan had an errand to run down south so we had our luncheon at Summit Pizza.

What is a doodle? I know, I asked the guy that too.

A doodle are round cheese filled pizza things. A doodle. They come with pizza dipping sauce. Very tasty. We will be back!

We don’t know how to do the selfie thing.

For dessert we had cinnamon roll doodles. Cinnamon pizza dough with cream cheese dipping sauce. Eli and Morfar tried the raspberry doodle. Not impressed. No one really liked them either. They were weak with the raspberry so it tasted like they were baked next to a raspberry. I’m pretty picky with my flavors. They need to be real. But, the cinnamon roll ones were really good. Again, we will be back for these.

We started out the evening before the 4th with a movie in the park.

I’m not one to do outings like this. I would rather stay home, but this little boy loves to be out and about. We found a spot in the park, set up the chairs and two minutes later Eli took Paul’s chair and was ready for the movie!

We brought snacks. Lots of snacks for me to stay awake, ha!

Eli’s best friend came and joined us.

The next morning I talked Paul into coming back into town to watch the F16 fly by. They never came!

Went to my parents for a BBQ. Eli has been loving hotdogs lately. My veggie burger on a hotdog bun looks like slop, but it was very tasty.

We watched a little Jurassic Park. I know fitting for the 4th. Although Eli was saying this was a fake movie, we fast forward the scary parts anyway.

We made homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream. Again, looks like slop, but I didn’t want a lot of ice cream. Trying to eat well. I ate so well, I came back 3-4 times for more ice cream. I might as well just filled it up!

Paul came just in time for fireworks. Remember the days when we had to go to the city park to see the ‘big’ fireworks? The sky was lit up everywhere with everyone shooting off their fireworks.

A fun filled weekend.
