I've been doing a bit of organizing, and that includes taking photos off my camera's SD card. Imagine my dismay and surprise when I found a bunch of photos I took this summer when I used one I took that day for Rinda's Photography Challenge. I was SURE I had shown these photos before, but an extensive search brought up nothing.
This may look like, or remind you of, the same day that Kathy and I spent when we went to Public at The Brickyard, but I assure you, this is the heat (real heat) of summer and this is my friend Sally walking ahead of me.
The entrance was a bit different, and some of the tables had been rearranged,
but the decorations were basically the same. Instead of a menu encased in a hard cover, this one was merely laminated. You probably can't read the menu in the mosaic
but both Sally and I got the Caprese, which was composed of fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil pesto on ciabatta. I loved mine, but Sally was put off by the basil pesto, which I admit, was a bit strong. And even though it looks like there is meat in that sandwich, it was a true vegetarian's delight. Of course, I traded that nasty ketchup for ranch dressing. OK, any ketchup is nasty in my books, not just the flavored herb infused stuff they served at the Brickyard.
Of course, we both had water, and the sweet potato fries for our side. Our meals were $8.00 each before tax. Much cheaper than the day I took Kathy to Public at The Brickyard.
So what are you doing for T this week? Are you showing a mosaic, digital, hybrid, or physical scrapbook, journal, or altered book page? Were you out and about? Were you somewhere you'd never been before, or an old familiar haunt? Did you prefer to stay in, and share your drink, a mug, a cup, or even a tea pot? It doesn't matter, as long as you can relate it back to some drink, or something that will hold liquid.
But, of course, you must link below for other T participants and friends to visit. And Bleubeard reminds you that those photos can be taken at any time, even last summer!!
I forgot to mention that I have unexpected company, so if you haven't heard from me, that's the reason. I'll be by to check my T group and everyone I need to catch up with as soon as possible.
Well that food just looks fabulous!! So glad you found it and shared it with us...Maybe knowing it was taken in the summer will warm so of us up. Happy Tday my friend. Hugs! deb
Looks like the weather was kind and your lunch sounds very tasty Elizabeth. I'm not a fan of ketchup either and although I am a carnivore, if I find a good vegetarian dish I always opt for that instead, so I'm sure I would have enjoyed a caprise too :D I'm delighted to be joining in this week after receiving a lovely gift from my friend Lynn. Happy T Day :o))
Although I am not a veggie girl I would like to eat such delicious veggie things... thank you for sharing that photos Elizabeth--great you found them! Enjoy your unexpected company!
Sounds like a good day out, glad you found the photos to share for us. Not sure about the Craft Barn challenge yet, not really into the calendar one for sure, I may well do the alternate offerings depending on what they are!
A great find on your camera, the meal looks lovely and the prie was definitely good, $8 each? LOL I have been idle too long and need to start motivating myself to get in the scraproom and make stuff again... the housework will wait for me I am sure!!
Your lunch sounds yummy...we enjoy pesto on pasta very much too...ciabatta and sweet potato fries...you are making me hungry. I can almost feel the warm summer sun in your photos too E! Happy T Day from grey and chilly Virginia oxo
had to smile because organizing is not my strong suit...and I'm barely able to remember what I did last week, much less last summer:) glad you found these fun photos to share with us...looks like a yummy place. hope you are keeping warm...hugs!
Oh I love Sweet potato fries! There is a cafe we go to in the summer that has Llamas outside the window called Llama Karma cafe - they do yummy veggie food! This place looks very airy - just right for a hot day! Your lunch looks delicious! Hugs, Chrisx

Bleubeard and I welcome you
Art, including the journey, background techniques, sewing on both paper and fabric, new experiments, photos, failures, and successes will be shared on this site. I have removed my e-mail address until such time as I can get it to work again. Thank you for understanding. You can always leave a note on my blog and I will visit you.
Please check out my Previous Collaborations link above to see what projects I have been involved in over the past 12 years. Current and ongoing projects only are shown below.
Occasionally, Silent Sunday will showcase photos of my home, neighborhood, or community. A picture is often worth a thousand words.
Feelfree to drop by every second Thursday of the month for my Second Thursday Tutorials. They are interspersed with my other Tutorials found at the link page above.
Click on any lesson you might have missed or want to review
Click on the above image daily and help feed hungry dogs and cats. You can donate cat litter, too. You simply answer two questions (one about cats and one about dogs), and whether your answer is correct or not, you have just donated kibble to help feed both shelter animals and those in need.
I will create the art, critique things I feel are important, and put pen (and sometimes glue) to paper, or fingers to keys, while Bleubeard will mostly watch, supervise, or sleep.
