Super Bowl Update

Today was the first in several days that did not rain in the O.C. We made the best of our day of sun before the rain starts again. My mum, niece, my sister's dog Kinsey, my dog Paris and I went to HB Dog Beach.

Paris will be 13 in May. He loves laying on the beach.

And I love him.

Next stop, the thrift store. My sister and I have a favorite thift store outside of the O.C. It is huge and crowded and the service is awful but we love it. There are always a lot of treasures. Here I am holding the world's ugliest stocking. Oh yah, I'm wearing a child's hoop skirt. (I didn't buy either.)

I did buy some shiney blue shoes. I don't usually do thrift store shoes but these looked brand new.

And I love this chicken plate. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it or put it in my Etsy store. I also bought some cute tops and a Super Bowl decoration. I'll show the latter during my Super Bowl open house.

Next stop, House of Fondue. I gravitate towards any type of "House of." Can you see that the sign says, "Euro-Chinese Restaurant?" Not a lot of cars in the parking lot. That doesn't discourage my sis and me.

Dinner was good but you have to see our dessert. We ordered chocolate fondue. The chocolate was good. The assortment of goodies for dipping was very interesting: apples, strawberries, cherries, bananas (so far so good right?) then it gets unusual one big pink marshmallow, one big white marshmallow, lots of little color marshmallows, marachino cherries, cookie assortment, dried apricots and get this-raisins.

As much as we laughed about the selection when it came, we still tried it and it was great. Although, skewering a raisin is harder than it sounds.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. I really didn't do anything extraordinary today but I had a great day. I'm glad that I could share it with you.
