Super starters. My dear wife Karen’s busy work schedule kept us from celebrating my round-number birthday this year on the midweek day proper. Sipping part of the menu. So we did it up proper on a weekend evening at local restaurant Santangelo’s, a favorite to both of us. Italian, yes, please. To accompany the food,…
Happy together. Closing happened. The big family came together over the weekend to move furniture and boxes. Many boxes. Elisabeth and George Three are now in their first house together. Fantastic yard, too. Lovely house, big grounds. And it’s only 1.1 miles from our place. We think it’s marvelous. Congratulations, terrific daughter and fantastic fiancé.…
My dear wife Karen had a wonderful idea for this past Sunday. She sent me an item she spotted from the Syracuse Mets’ Facebook page promoting a Mothers Day special. They were throwing a nice brunch in their Metropolitan Club, with a ticket to the 1 p.m. game against the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. Wonderful…
Terrific daughter Elisabeth and son-in-law-to-be George heard us when we said how much we liked the Blonde Ale from Hamilton Brewery Good Nature. Our Christmas gifts included a growler of that draft ale, cold from their fridge and short trip in their car. Does not that pour look lovely? Karen, George and myself shared a…
On her web travels, my dear wife Karen discovered reindeer towel gifts. She immediately decided she needed to take on the project for terrific daughter Elisabeth and son-in-law-to-be George. I watched her watch YouTube during the creative process. The deer awaited the kids’ arrival for the holiday. They loved them (with some extra towels in…
Terrific daughter Elisabeth and George Three gifted my dear wife Karen with a great gift card good at the Cheesecake Factory for her recent birthday. We happily attended on a Sunday afternoon at Destiny USA. My lovely wife was quite happy with her steak tacos and beans. My four-item omelette made me smile with it…
We won’t miss Polish Fest at downtown Syracuse’s Clinton Square. Hover over a gallery photo for a description. Click on an image for an enlarged slide show. We start with our lunch. Our go-to place has become the tent from Utica’s finest Polish Community Home. Of course, after eating, we walk to take in the…
The moment they opened the Chick-Fil-A just north of Syracuse, my dear wife Karen, Elisabeth, George Three and I knew we wanted to get clued into the hoo-hah. Yeah, we’ve seen all the cow-cute commercials on our favorite TV networks. A trip to celebrate the March birthday of George and April day for Elisabeth seemed…
I worked my brain hard to figure out what to get my daughter and her sensational significant George Three for their birthdays this year. His is midway through March; hers is part way through April. We’d meet in the middle and take a trip with my dear wife Karen to try out the new Chick…
Elisabeth and George Three came in from the car lugging some hot gifts for my dear wife Karen and I this holiday season. Our Family Reunion week in Kona will forever tie us in the greatest of ways. The kids obviously knew how much the old man loved Wailua Wheat. They went online to find…
