We needed to get my husband Steven a ticket for the Great American Irish Festival in Frankfort, so we headed to the Price Chopper in Little Falls. Of course I cannot go to Little Falls for just one thing, so we also got a mid afternoon snack at Ruggiero’s Trattorio.
One of my favorite places for drinks and food.
We have eaten there before. Our favorite place to sit is the bar, which is where we sat today. We had some Chardonnay. I got a bowl of French Onion Soup while Steven had a slice of pizza. I had a bite or two of his pizza. It had sausage, peppers and mushrooms. Yum! I adored my soup. It felt so good on my stomach!

A fellow sat two seats down from us at the bar and gave the bartender a bottle of blueberry beer.
“I have to love a guy who pulls a bottle of beer out of his pocket.” I told him.
He told us how he likes to try different kinds of beer, but you often have to purchase a six- or twelve-pack at a time, so he sometimes gives some away to people he thinks will like them. I referred him to Beer Belly Bob’s in Ilion, because he has a rack where you can mix and match a six-pack of craft beers.
We had a fun time there. I also got a picture of our bartender Carly.
A good bartender with one of my favorite names.
