Breathless...
My whirlwind weekend with sister Gloria and her husband Mark is sadly over too soon. All the wonderful things we accomplished exceeded my wildest dreams! This weekends highlights were:
Eating Alligator for the first time ever (tastes like chicken, except perhaps a bit more rubbery).
Shopping forever in wonderful little downtown Cookeville shops. (Including one in which each shopper was given an original piece of artwork, by the owners daughter.)
Acquiring a fabulous piece of art which will provide vision and direction for future interior decorating adventures in years to come (not to mention the downright steal of a deal I got it for!)
Watching "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" at the newly opened dinner and movie establishment.
Checking out the brunch buffet at "Bagels and More" (their pumpkin pie is absolutely amazing).
Drinks at Gridges (coffee and apple cider type drinks, not alcoholic, thank you).
Fighting my sister and brother-in-law for the check (I won two, but I cheated at World Food Market by telling the girl not to let them pay while they selected their drinks).
More Shopping.
And the pièce de résistance was an impromptu "Bob & Betty" patio makeover in which my dull, lifeless, but not lacking in potential patio was transformed into an inspiring autumn haven. (Let me just say, Gloria IS the new Doug Wilson!) I'll post pictures after they're developed.
