My dear wife Karen enjoyed a quick getaway excursion with dear friend Chris to meet with Cathy and husband Bruce in Ithaca on Friday night. After I got out from my library shift, I took a quick trip to the supermarket to fill the usual two bags with needed items. But … I didn’t feel…
My dear wife Karen and I saved our visit to the Ocean House’s Beach Bar for the tail end of this year’s Cape Cod Getaway. The new rental left the popular outdoor pub/restaurant a short walk from our house. And that gave us days to long for our meals. So I ordered the king-sized hot…
In our trip to regular supermarket Stars, which most reminds us of Syracuse area food marts, my dear wife Karen and I stumbled upon this holiday cake. No, it did not make it into our cart with the goods to make sure that not every meal had to be eaten out during this year’s Cape…
This vacation’s drive to Chatham led us to a first stop at Lily’s Diner, a cozy-looking joint on the main drag with an inviting table on the front veranda. The coffee the amiable waitress that I swore to my dear wife Karen came from downstate New York poured into our green Lily’s cups was quite…
One of the reasons we adored the location of the house we rented the previous handful of years was the ability to walk to several restaurants we grew fonder of as time went by. On we settled into our new rental 1.25 miles toward the beach and away from the village on night one of…
My awesome daughter Elisabeth texted me that she and fiance George would be coming over on a day of my choice with sandwiches from Touch of Broadway Delicatessen. Thank you, giver of the gift card. On the chosen day, I texted back my request for hot pastrami with sauerkraut, provolone and spicy mustard on dark…
Add the Food Truck Battle to our growing list of family traditions. In fact, George Two joined my dear wife Karen, terrific daughter Elisabeth and fiancé George to the New York State fairgrounds on a warm and sunny Saturday. George Three and I immediately jumped on the Bold Coast Lobster truck line, longest of the…
It’s an easy drive up to Brewerton if you’re in the market for a biscuit as big as you’re head. Terrific daughter Elisabeth chose the Brewer Union Cafe as the restaurant stop this time around for her, hubby-to-be George Three and my dear wife Karen and I. Elisabeth called ahead from the car after we…
On a recent Thursday I had to run over to Onondaga Lake Park to snap off some photos for my job at the library. Picnics at the Park was in the midst of its weekly feast on wheels. It’s replacing Taste of Syracuse this trying-to-get-back year of 2021. A duo performed rock hits. It was…
My dear wife Karen and I found our favorite restaurants safely distanced in this shifted-to-September annual Cape Cod getaway. We wore our masks, noted our chunks of six feet and admired how they spaced there tables, inside and out. Some meals were noted in separate previous posts, yum-yum to the Ocean House, Red Nun, Sundancers…
