A very good day. A very good day indeed.
Any morning that begins with a breakfast at The Hershey Pantry (my favorite place on this earth) is a sure set the stage for a stellar day.
My sister was at my house early this morning and we drove into Hershey to meet my dad for our monthly FD (Father/Daughter) Breakfast.
We wanted to sit outside because their outdoor patio is gorgeous. It reminds me of The Secret Garden. Unfortunately, the wait was just a bit too long for our appetites and the "no wait" drew us in. The inside is just as adorable though!
After straying from the last visit, I went back to my beloved Baked Oatmeal. Today, it was Strawberry and Cream! OMG!!!!
And split a side of fruit with my sister.
Amazing!
Toly felt very left out and jealous that he was not included in this breakfast event and asked me if I would bring him back a muffin.
Oh, I forgot to tell you, the muffins at The Hershey Pantry are not really muffins……
They are masterpieces!
Wow, I really just can not explain how good it is.
After a lovely FD Breakfast, my sister and I said our goodbyes to my dad and were off for a girly morning of shopping at the outlets.
I love shopping with my sister. I actually don't like shopping all that much, but for some reason I LOVE to shop with my sister. Every time I go with her, I find the best deals!
We got home later in the afternoon, and I grabbed a quick slice of leftover pizza before running out to the grocery store.
Later on, we went to Toly's aunt's house for her birthday party.
She made a wonderful spread of salads, some traditional Russian dishes, meats, and of course, lots of alcohol, just like any other Russian party.
I filled my plate with some salad, shrimp, and pickles.
I also found out I have a partner in pickle love!
Everyone enjoyed the food and company and celebrating Aunt Tanya.
Look who made the blog again! Papa P is getting so much attention lately and loves it! :)
It was all around a wonderful day! Tomorrow we have a picnic at my parents house so it should be more fun with the family.
Hope your weekends are going well.
