Fresno and the Super Bowl

Well, my trip to Fresno was a blast!! We had the best time and my friend Becky was so hospitable! We shopped and ate mostly. They had a fantastic Farmer's Market and I bought the best raisins! I made a floral arrangement for Becky using a bouquet of flowers I bought, it even came with a very cute, long stemmed cabbage! kind of looked like a green rose. The farmers were nice and I bought a nice set of note cards from the artist, almost too pretty to use. Frenso has some really nice store like a Coach Store, and not the outlet, a Whole Foods and a Skecher's outlet. We had lunch and tea in Clovis, a totally cute little town. I even signed up for a punch card in their local quilt shop, you never know when I'll be back and for that matter when I may finally learn how to quilt. Dinner was at Harris Ranch. I had been there last summer but it was for breakfast so I had steak and eggs. This time, I has a rib eye, very yummy! The desserts are to die for. They present them on a tiered rack in shot glasses so they aren't very big, except on taste.

I got back home at 1:15 on Super Bowl Sunday , did a load of wash and then was off for the big party. For the first time ever, I paid pretty close attention to the game and the other spectators, they were so entertaining. On of our friends, Rey, is a huge Steeler's fan and is very passionate about them. All in good fun of course, but there was a lot of yelling after every play. If all football games were this close and exciting, I might lie it!

Yudu is set to arrive tomorrow!
