Basically, I had a foodie dream afternoon. My mom and I started things off with a Ladies’ Lunch at a little place called Lulu’s Tea Room.
My favorite thing about Lulu’s is the cute dishes. My tea cup was leopard print, and the creamer poured out of a tiny ceramic elephant’s noise!
I ordered the spinach quiche, tomato and dill soup, fresh salad with vidalia onion dressing, and sweet bread and cream.
The quiche was the best! It wasn’t super egg-y and the crust was amazing.
I had three cups of tea while I was there – Earl Grey, English Breakfast, and Lemon!
After Lulu’s, my mom and I went shopping again – this time, I was buying the Husband a Valentine’s Day present (hope he likes it!). I also stocked up on special goodies while in Earthfare:
- A dozen cans of Libby’s Canned Pumpkin. We can’t get pumpkin in Florida during the post-holiday months!
- A jar of Barney Butter!
- A jar of Hot Pepper Raspberry preserves.
- Two jars of vegetarian korma sauce (basically, Indian curry).
I also got a loaf of French bread and ate a portion in the car. It was SUPER chewy and crusty.
Don’t act like you don’t do that, too! 🙂
After our errands, we came home and made dinner. It was basically a bunch of leftovers and takeout meals!
Santa Fe casserole, sweet potato, green beans, asparagus soup, and more French bread.
Now, I am munching on a few squares of chocolate.
Because we do a lot of shopping at Costco, we are always pretty well stocked with things like peanut butter, oatmeal, and nuts. I also must always have yogurt on hand!
What do you always stock up on?
I love quaint little tea rooms! So cute!!
Where did your mom get her plates? I ADORE them!
