This morning I had to get a haircut, go to the bank, go by the building supply place where we’re ordering our cabinets, go by the drug store to get a gift bag and card for the quilt for the vet tech, go by the vet’s office and deliver the quilt and get dog food for Speck. Vince knows how much I don’t like leaving the house . . I’ve moaned and complained about it for the past three days.
I love Stick’s BBQ and Vince isn’t so crazy about it. This morning as I was going through email, I had this one from him.
Lunch Date
We had a lunch date! 🙂
As it turns out, you know how forgetful I am. I got to the bank to cash the checks and didn’t have the checks. Not a problem. I’ll do it next time I’m out. Then I remembered I’d left the baby quilt at home. Back home . . got the checks, got the quilt. Ended up getting the oil changed while I was out. I made a total of 8 stops . . way, way past my limit of 3 per day but hopefully I don’t have to leave home for a while.
I was going to take a picture of my big plate of brisket, squash casserole and pinto beans but . . I forgot that too! 🙁
When we eat a big lunch, we snack for dinner. There’s leftover pizza, leftover jambalaya, sandwich and salad making supplies. Eating lunch out means I don’t have to cook dinner, which means more sewing time! The electrician isn’t coming tonight (I think) so both of us kinda get an evening off. We need that every now and then.

How nice to have a lunch date to brighten up your day, especially by way of a nice little invite from the hubby. I’m like you, if hubby and I go out to do errands, it usually includes a lunch so neither of us has to cook in the evening. Sounds like you had a great day and will enjoy your evening.

Mmmmm, Texas brisket. I love it. Vince is so thoughtful, and now you have your fridge cleaned out too. Happy, happy day for all.

Sounds like a nice day, even though you had a lot of errands to run. I need to do a little more cooking here. I’ve been snacking too much and not really eating good food. Result? Dizzy this afternoon and took my blood sugar – it was 47, which is very bad. So, I grilled some hamburgers and asparagus on the grill tonight. I’ll make some chicken tomorrow.
