Libbie heard from Jennifer at the greenhouse. All is well back there. After 7 inches of snow yesterday, Jennifer was able to get to the greenhouse. She didn't drive down since she was afraid to get stuck but she reported all was well. There was some worry yesterday because it snowed yesterday and her power was out. We didn't know how things were. Temps inside were OK. We went South to the Venice rookery, saw some nesting Herons. Went to Racetrac to get gas at 3.04 per gal then went to Lowes looking for a new intake grill. the old one is rusted. Next stop was Yoders looking for fruit then JC Pennys for new pillows which were on sale. $17 for 2 King pillows. Next stop was Whole Foods in downtown Sarasota. We saw a Dr Oz show about metabolism. He recommended GG Bran Scandinavian bread and Oolong tea. We bought both in whole Foods and met a couple searching for the same thing. We briefly chatted about Dr Oz and how we'll live to 100. When I got my Lobster Bisque seafood I met a very nice woman who was disappointed that the Chiopini soup was out. She said this happened to her yesterday. I liked her, she was fun to talk to. After our soup at whole food we walked through Selby. They were preparing for freezing temperatures tonight. We stopped to visit with Peter and Christa and had wine and cookies. Watched a nice sunset then went out to dinner. The Grill only had a limited sandwich menu so we went out to Bangock Thai on Swift. I had Pad Thai Beef. Before that we had an appetizer of Sataya which was chicken on skewers that we grilled over a flaming hibachi on the table. The waitress talked like a 10 year old girl and was very tiny. She was definitely Thai. Very nice. |
