Didn't get much card making today. Sonny and I went out to breakfast this morning. I talked him into going to a restaurant I have recently discovered in Mooresville called Gail's Cafe. I have been there a couple of times for lunch and it is delicious! They serve home cooking - good veggies, biscuits, gravy, etc. All those good Southern things. Well, my husband being the Yankee that he is, doesn't like Southern cooking. He's a meat & potatoes man and boy, does that get boring!! Well, I figured he'd be ok with breakfast - eggs are eggs, etc. Well, I wasn't as impressed with their breakfast as I am with their lunches. It wasn't bad or anything but I like some of the other places we go better for breakfast. My main complaint was that they used American cheese in my omelet instead of Cheddar! But my biscuit was yummy!! After breakfast, I even convinced him to go to Belk's with me .... shopping!! I need to get something to wear to two weddings in Texas Memorial Day weekend. One of them will be more casual. It is an outside wedding with a carnaval theme! Different, huh?? The other one will be dressy since it is an evening wedding. I ended up buying a dressy pair of capris and a top, but now I'm not sure - it may be too casual! I'm going to take pictures and send to my fashion expert, Ashley!! After shopping, we went to the movies and saw Date Night. It was a really cute show. It's not going to win a Oscar but it was entertaining. Then, we headed to BJ's and Target! Whew - a long day!
I don't think I shared my Monday Mailers from this week. So without further ado .....
