The weather is getting nicer and staying that way. I finally planted some flowers out front. I love white, so those are the only flowering color we have. I have Jasmine, Gardenia & Germanium are a few. These smell so yummy and look great! I love the rich dark green leaf that contrasts with the white flower... If you haven't got your pots planted it's a great weekend to get it done! Enjoy whatever fun event you have going on this weekend. TGIF! Thanks for reading. … [Read more...]
Pieology
Pieology is a new restaurant that just opened in our community. Who better to take to try it out then, Evan and my nephew Derek. These boys are Pizza lovers and were super happy to try the newest restaurant in town! The idea is that it's an individual oven baked pizza that you pick your own toppings. It's almost like walking through the line in Subway... The pieologist makes the pizza right in front of you, then places it in the wood-fired oven for 3 minutes. Both boys gave it two thumbs up! They are already talking about what they are choosing next time. Great job Pieology! Welcome to the neighborhood. :) … [Read more...]
