The Garden Gate Tea Room

Yesterday I took Mom to "The Garden Gate Tea Room" as I wrote in my previous post for her BD....

We have gone there several times now for "Special" occasions. And of course Mom turning 90 was diffently a "Special" occasion.

They starts serving at 11:30, we were there a little after 11:00 but the nice ladies saw us walking up and asked us to come in and have some Ice Tea while we waited, it was Hibiscus Cranberry Tea, Mmmmmmm with sugar crystals around the top of the glass...then they even served us some of the Sherried Creme of Carrot Bisque on the house while we waited too... How nice was that...  Now there were 3 or 4 other ladies that came in right behind us but we were the only ones that got the Royal treatment... We must have look "Hungry"... :)

Here's a pic of the Menu....

We had the Herb crusted Rosemary Baked Chicken Pie which we get every time we go then we always try something different... this time we had the Salmon Souffle Roulade, and OMG was that the BEST thing ever... So now the Salmon has been moved up in the 1st place on our list of things to get but the Rosemary Chicken Pie is a Very Close second.  

Just so you know we each took half of the others meal so we got to have both... What a Treat!

No mater what we've had there it's always be 1st class and delish!

As more and more people came in we could tell there was a group of ladies having a High Tea.... so I had to ask our waitress about that and it sounds so good that Mom and I decided that next time we would have to try that.... she side we had to make reservations for that because everything is made that morning and fresh as can be...

We both are looking forward to our next visit!!!

Out of Order!

Yep! That's me!  I was helping my hubby out in the yard yesterday and messed up my shoulder BAD... Been putting ice on it every hour or so, then went on line to MedMD and found out to put heat on it too so now I'm doing that too. Hope its not anything I have to go to the Doc for but if it's not on the mend by Monday off I go to see what I did.  So I won't be posting much because I won't be crafting much.... Poop... will maybe a little.. te he:) 

I'll be thinking of you all crafting and having fun!

Hi EveryOne!

Morning Everyone!

Will I'm finally back in town for awhile,,,,, YEA!!!! And I'm ready to start creating again. Started working on a Valentines card but not quite finished with it yet. Maybe later today or tomorrow.... Got home Thursday night to guess what...... ALL my Christmas directions yet.... and here I thought some little elf would have been here and put everything away. But NO.... it's all here... Yesterday I went to visit my Mom 87 and Dad 90 for a few hours and help get things back in order. Did some grocery shopping for them and me.... laundry... putting things back... and when I sat down at the end of the day.... Christmas was still staring at me..... Will today's the day. OUT with the old and in with the clean... sounds good to me, now I'll have to see if I can do it. Need to pack all Mom's Christmas things this morning first so after I have a few cups of coffee off I go to packing her things and visiting with both of them for a few hours. I am so lucky to have both my parents and so close too. There just a few doors down from me so I just put on a jacket and off I go. But when I get back I'm going to CLEAN this house of all signs of Christmas and get it all packed away for Next year. I have to sort thur some of these boxes too. I need to get rid of some of the things I just don't put out anymore. So someone else can enjoy them.

Like I said, maybe later today or tomorrow I'll post my Valentines card I've been wanting to do...

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!
