We took 1/3 of our grandchildren to lunch yesterday. At the light before we get to our restaurant and in one shot you see 5 fast food restaurants - I couldn't get the other 4 into the frame!
We opted for the little Italian restaurant around the corner - hoping to have not quite as much cholesterol and trans fat as the neighbors. I don't know if we actually did accomplish that. We certainly could have gone for a little more green - but what you do not see is that we did have a big green salad before these main courses. Which are: Chicken Marsala with mushrooms and proscitto in Lombardo Marsala wine sauce http://www.marsalawine.com/ . And, Rigatoni Martino - rigatoni with grilled chicken with sauteed mushrooms and sundried tomatoes in a tomato cream sauce with ricotta and scallions. And, Spiedino Di Mare - grilled shrimp and scollops with italian breadbrumbs in lemon and butter sauce. And, the one you do not see was a Pepperoni Pizza - it was too blurry and I figure you can picture that one anyway. . . .
Only the pizza guy could handle dessert - not your Moma'sBanana Pudding. I love and appreciate the new, much smaller sizes.
When I was around six I found a beautifully embroidered child's pillowcase with wonderful flowers and bees and a butterfly in the most beautiful colors. Right in the middle of all of this was the name JANE. I loved it! I asked my Mother where it came from and she said she embroidered it when she was pregnant with me. And, that she and my Father were going to name me Jane. But changed their minds. Too bad. I loved it. So, I started signing my name with a flourish . . . . J a n e
