Well, it's Sunday now........
I love Sundays - but that means it is Monday and back to work tomorrow which is Ok, but I could always use an extra day off
Gary and I went out to breakfast - we went the the Waffle House - I imagine not everyone knows about Waffle Houses. It's a whole "nuther" culture there. It stays open 24/7 and you can get breakfast/lunch/dinner at any time. It's a little place, usually in the "not so foo foo" part of town - around airports and the like. It has both booths and counter service. You are seated where you can see them cooking and in many/most Waffle Houses, the waitresses do not give the cooks the order sheet - she just yells out things like "2 scramble, hash browns scattered well, and bacon" It was amazing to us the first time we ate there, how the cook could keep everything straight. There is a system, but I'm not sure I could do it if I were the cook! You just see the most interesting people at the Waffle House. Gary and I were so intrigued about 20 years ago, when we stopped at a Waffle House on a trip. We'd never been to one before. Anyway, I've always loved eating at Waffle House, and I love to watch the people there. Gary always made fun of me and never wanted to eat there, till he had the pecan waffles - they are REALLY GOOD!!! So, we stood in line about 15 minutes for a booth, and ate a good breakfast. Then we had to go to PetSmart for a new bulb for the fish tank light - and it still doesn't work, so I'm going to have to get a new light. Afterward, I went to the nursery and got some lettuce - but they said it is a little early and may still be too hot - hope not! Also, got some rosemary and cilantro along with 6 bags of compost and one bag of general fertilizer. I'm going to try to get it put on the yard this evening after it cools off a bit as it is supposed to rain Tues/Wed and I want the compost/fertilizer down before the rain. Now, I'm thinking about going to get a pedicure - last one before I give up wearing sandals for the season in a few weeks - although, I'll have to wear them on that damdable cruise
