OHHHH that taffy looks wonderful!!! Now I have a craving! LOL Those are some cool cars too! Old model Fs are my favorite!! I had a full weekend of senses!!
SEEING – an awesome concert Friday night (Big n Rich & Gretchen Wilson at Mystic Casino), the coolest lightning storm on Saturday night, and the movie “Friends with Benefits” on Sunday.
HEARING – 8 teenage boys have the time of their life in a 2 bedroom suite for my son’s birthday. They had so much fun, but I didn’t need to hear *all* of the things they shared with me!! LOL
SMELLING – chlorine from the pool & hot tub for the first time this year. It was pleasant, but wish I got to enjoy it more.
TASTING – yummy, fattening birthday cake on Saturday and a fabulous greek salad from Brookside Grill in Marine on St. Croix. Also these intensely, fantastic & beautiful chocolates from the St. Croix Chocolate Company. http://www.stcroixchocolateco.com/our-chocolate/ They are basically like works of art!!! I got Key Lime, Passion Fruit and Seasalt Caramel.
FEELING – Excited that my BFF/Sister booked her ticket and will be home in 3 weeks (she’s been gone since Easter) and kinda sad at the same time because her daughter won’t be living with me anymore. The boys and I have really enjoyed having her here with us!
KNOWING – life is overwhelming & busy, but OH SO GOOD right now!!!
LOVE your SSS! Thanks so much for sharing! Can’t wait to try the chocolates! We’ve been to Brookside! good food! 🙂
