Monday, Monday ...


What a wonderful weekend we had together! Ellie is celebrating her 4th "great" day in a row. She earned staying at Clubhouse on Friday evening for PTA (Parents Time Away) where she plays games and watches movies with her friends. They dine on pizza and hot dogs! Bill and I used the time to get a money back for our appliances that went on sale, hardware store for some odds and ends and a wonderful 'date night' dinner at Medici in Uptown Normal. We loved the truffle braised mussels and smoked gouda mac & cheese to start with a wonderful ribeye and seafood pasta for dinner! We truly enjoyed our time out .. and our great meal. We decided this is a great place to bring Grammy and Papa when they visit!

The weekend was complete with a newly painted dining room, new stainless steel range and microwave installed .. and a variety of Sunday cooking to last several days into the week!
