I had family obligations yesterday, so I had to forgo the Mohawk town wide garage sales. I saw in the paper that they continue today, so perhaps all is not lost. Still, I need to make a blog post today. What can I talk about?
We had breakfast at Philly’s on South Caroline Street. I know I’ve talked about Philly’s recently, but it’s such a cool place, I think it rates another mention. Both waitresses were ready to bring us coffee. I got complimented on my earrings. I complimented one waitress on her new hair-do. In all, a typical, enjoyable breakfast.
From Philly’s we walked up to T & J’s Fruits and Vegetables. We had previously purchased flowers there for my container garden. At that time, I noticed they had rudbeckia, which I later learned was a perennial that attracts butterflies. I wanted to put more perennials in my yard, and attracting butterflies sounded good to me. Unfortunately, yesterday they had no rudbeckia. As they say, you snooze, you lose. I couldn’t quite make up my mind on any other flowers or even on any of the produce they offer, so we left empty handed. They are open seven days, though, so I don’t rule out going back today. Maybe it would be a good day to plant tomatoes. Hmmm…
So that was my Mohawk Valley Saturday. A couple of local stops, then on to a family party. This not being a family party type of blog, I won’t go on about that. Next Saturday I work, so it may not be much better. But I have plans for today, so stay tuned.
