Sharing Special Places

Old Orchard Inn favorite chicken pot pie Happy Monday!

Do you have special places you like to share?

We all have those favorite restaurants, parks, hang outs…

But who are they special to? Is it a favorite hang out with friends, a running path for solitude or a special date spot? Who do you share them with?

We tried a restaurant that was a special date spot for Mom yesterday. It’s funny that we had never been there. I totally could see her there. It was her kind of place… comfy, good food, park-like surroundings, and of course more than a couple fire places. There was even a nice gift shop – Porter may just have been happy it was closed yesterday.

It was fun to share a moment with Mom again (it’s been almost 11 years since she passed).

Old Orchard Inn Lemon Angel

(We visited Old Orchard Inn in East Aurora, NY and had their Sunday special of Chicken Pot Pie finished with their amazing Lemon Angel. Lemon Angel is a meringue biscuit covered with lemon pudding and fresh whipped cream, just decadent. I know why it was a favorite of Mom’s – our entree’s were accompanied with mashed potatoes, butternut squash and beets. So very good!)

Hope it’s a great week!
