Yesterday, Nancy and I decided to take a little road trip.
Destination: River Falls Wisconsin
It was such a nice, sunny day, the perfect sort for a mini-escape.
We visited some of the local shops.
I bought some of my favorite Moon over Madagascar tea at
Admired the beautiful bread at
and we had a yummy lunch at
a bakery case full of tempting items…
and a whimsical little coffee-house dining room
The food is very good
and the coffee is amazing
I had the vanilla latte…
and a “build your own” sandwich…
turkey, roast beef, pepperjack, cukes, sprouts mayo, banana peppers,
lettuce and onions
on sourdough rye
with a steaming mug of cheesy broccoli soup
and coleslaw
way filling and way good!
Nancy had the quiche of the day ~ Tomato Basil
with a little salad, side of bread, and cup of tea…
yum!
After lunch we looked around the
Riverwalk Mercantile…
