Up earlier today in order to get everything done. Richard has been having trouble with his glasses so he had an eye appointment. From there we went looking for new glasses but why not first stop at Starbucks. Right? Any time is a good time. He likes his tall bold (dark roast) with a shot of espresso and I my macha green tea latte.
Richard found new frames he liked so his new glasses will be ready in ten days.
I took a little side excursion to Michael Kors and Kate Spade before meeting back up at T J Max. This is obviously Richard’s shopping holiday. He bought another jacket (that’s four now), more gym clothes, and a polo t-shirt.
Off to Marshall’s to return a yoga top and since it’s near the sports shop Richard was able to get a new fishing rod (remember he broke his on his first day of fishing).
The library to return a pile of books and check out new ones and then the gym and yoga.
What a full morning.
We have a list of restaurants to try this year so today we chose one close to home called DeSoto‘s.

What a busy spot. Multiple parking lots. We arrived at 1:15 for lunch and had a 15 minute wait. Definitely a snowbirds’ place. Good food at great places.
Each table had these carriers (salt and pepper were on the other side). Kind of cute.
Something we’ve never seen before on a menu was alligator bites.
We did not order them.
They have a different lunch special for each day of the week but we opted to order from the menu.
We really liked that with each entree you could choose two side dished. And there were plenty of choices. Richard was looking forward to the coconut shrimp and for his sides chose mac & cheese and green fried tomatoes. My choices were blackened catfish with French fries and the sweet potato casserole. Richard loved all of his. I tried his sides and they tasted great. I’m allergic to shrimp so I didn’t sample it. My catfish was wonderful and I’m glad I tried the casserole as I’ve never had it, but I won’t ever order it again. It’s extremely sweet. Too sweet for me.
We’ll probably return another day as Richard would like to try Wednesday’s lunch special: chicken and dumplings.
Finally back home to relax. But not on the deck today. Too chilly for that.
Although our windy 19C is much better than the cold, stormy weather at home on PEI.
I hope everyone at home is safe and warm.
Nite y’all
