Eating together

 

At the recent Senior Picnic at Lake Tomahawk, the Ukulele String Band entertained

Here folks are listening to the music while waiting for the pizza and salads that were served. I didn't make it to enjoy this with friends this time...physical issues.

The next week I did have lunch with a friend at Ole's Guacamole.

My favorite dish is shrimp tacos. This time the butterflied and grilled the shrimp...yummy!

The original Ole's restaurant is still being renovated following the flood from Hurricane Helene. They have new interior walls up, and are about to lay floor tiles. It has two dining rooms, and hopefully will be a quieter place where you can have a conversation. This room (above) gets really loud!

Ann Sillman, the lady on the left was invited to lunch by Alice, on the right.  Ann died before her 92st birthday about 2 years ago (I think). Alice, on the right, is still hostessing the monthly pot lucks at the UU church in Black Mountain with her husband (not in photo). Incidentally the restaurant where we enjoyed lunch has been closed since damage from Hurricane Helene. 

La  Guinguette - little French style restaurant across from the Post Office in Black Mountain.

I haven't eaten here since there are new owners...but I've heard the menu is still delicious. 

Sharing with Thankful Thursday

While we're talking about Tacos...there's the continuing leader Taco.

I woke up before 6 this morning. Argh! It will  be a long  day. I went to bed a bit early probably - just bored last night. My eyes were bothering me a bit, so nothing I do was enjoyable!

Today's quote:

Gratitude doesn’t send you out shopping to find satisfaction; it comes as a gift rather than a commodity.
