Wow I can hardly believe it's St. Patrick's day already. LOL I remember when we were told by our elementary school teachers to wear green and making shamrocks and other crafts that have to do with the irish and when we would come home we would smell the corn beef and cabbage cooking in the crock pot. As you know we no longer attend grade school but the meal hasn't changed. We still to this day have corn beef and cabbage. I am not sure on this but I think this is about the only time mom and Mark make it.
For the record I think I have it more than they do because I visit dad. He loves it and he seems to make it every other time I go over there. I think I go over there every month. But anyway this evening Katey will be joining us and spending the night. Hope she is doing well with her driving.
Anyway yesterday we went to another fish fry. I had expected us to go to the same place where we went last week and expected to see aunt Millie and Uncle Gary and everyone else who had joined us last week but that wasn't the case. We ended up going to St. Joseph's. It was where my mom attended grade school. When we entered there were photos of students that made their first communion.
Mom was obsessed in trying to find her photo but I don't think she had much luck. But anyway as we were eating I shared the news that I got from Jess about her bridal shower and the date it fell on which is April 14th. Mom seemed shocked and said that I should have gotten an invite a month earlier. I was like,
"Mom she's only a couple days late from spreading the news and it's not like it's the wedding." Mark was in agreement and the more mom thought about it the more she agreed. She said the wedding invites should go out a month in advance. But Jess seems to be on it. Well anyway Mark and I did not care for some of the food that we ordered.
Mark had ordered for all of us and had ordered mom and I a one piece fish dinner while he ordered a two piece fish along with some shrimp. that came with a side of french fries and cole slaw, or apple sauce. Mom and I chose the cole slaw while Mark chose apple sauce. I had told mom that I had much rather of had the shrimp rather than the fish. So in the end Mark and I split everything including dessert.
Like I said Mark nor I cared for the food. I thought the fish was tasty but the shrimp wasn't that great neither was the cole slaw or the french fries. I made the wrong choices again like I did at the other place but at least all their food was tasty. Mark than suggested that we go to a restaurant called Eddys next week. They have never been there before but I have been there twice with my grandparents and it is a great!
They have excellent fish and their onion rings are to die for. So that might be our next place next week. Well I better get going.
Happy St Patrick's Day!
