The kids and I had a fun day trip today. We went strawberry picking. It lasted about 20 minutes. Grace couldn't "find any", Rita was picking small white ones, and Sammy was sitting in mud the entire time. We were frustrated with all the mud! Then we went to a little hole in the wall place called Barbara's Candystick restaurant. It was hilarious. Totally back into the 50's. Everything was that teal blue inside with a real diner counter. It was very inexpensive too. The owner even ran out to me because she overcharged me by $4 and didn't want me to leave without it! Then we got stuck in a horrible rainstorm and had to pull over on the side of the road under an overpass with a bunch of other cars. The guy behind us got out to smoke while we waited. That was funny to us. Our minivan doesn't do well in rain and loses the belt from the power steering.
How fun! Those strawberries were probably so amazing! And the Candystick?? What a funny name!

Sorry the strawberry field was a bust. But hey--finding new funny restaurants makes up for it!
ReplyDeleteSorry but I'm laughing about the little white strawberries and the van not doing well in the rain.
ReplyDeleteDo you remember when we went strawberry picking? Grace was a year old and I was 7 months pregnant ...
