fon don't

saturday morning we went shopping at sheplers. (sadly the same last name doesn't qualify me for a discount) we got some nice shirts and a pair of dress pants for daddy. hopefully he'll post a fashion show online. then we went to savory spice shop. mamsis and i went a little crazy but only came home with smoked paprika, dried lemon and orange peel, dried and candied ginger, whole nutmeg, dried shallots, vanilla beans, and an assortment of dried mushrooms. then mamsis and i went grocery shopping and got some low carb/no carb foods and did some meal planning.
sunday was father's day. after breakfast dad went shooting with steve (a pharmacist i used to work with) at an indoor range. they shot for about 90 minutes and then they set up another play date to sight in steve's rifle later in the week. for dinner i made reservations for 7:30 at a fondue restaurant. we got there a little early, and so we waited outside for them to call us. at 7:40 we went back in to see if our table was ready and we were told it was going to be just a little longer. when we finally did get seated, we had to wait 25 minutes for our salads, and even though dad asked for no cucumbers, there were some on his salad. so we waited for a fresh salad for dad. the food was really good and we had delicious turtle dessert fondue. but the evening was a little spoiled by the service.

The food really was delicious, and I had a GREAT time making fun of the nincompoop staff with my delightful dinner comapanions. Thanks for the lovely evening, Lucy and Josh!
