T Stands for Food and Drink "Things"

Hi everyone. Happy middle of September. Amazing we are already this far into the month, isn't it?

It' cooled off here quite a bit. I am writing this Monday evening, and tonight's weather forecast is saying our temperatures could drop down into the 40's (degrees F. That's in the single digit range for degrees C) tonight.  Daytime temperatures have been in the high 60's to around 70 degrees(again degrees F.  That's around 20 degrees C). That didn't stop us from having a Sunday ice cream for lunch this past weekend. 

This week I had a flavor called Aroma Joe's peanut butter cup.  Aroma Joe's is a local coffee franchise, and this ice cream  was coffee flavored  with peanut butter and chocolate in it. Yummy.

 I also spent some time this past weekend, along with my husband, cleaning out more of some shelves in our basement. I was excited to find these.

They may not look like much as they are not fine crystal, but they were my grandmother's tapioca glasses. My brother, my cousin and myself have fond memories of my grandmother making tapioca for us, especially at Easter.  Not that she used them for only tapioca pudding, but that's how I remember them.  I'm excited to find them, seeing I totally forget I had them and thought they were lost to time.

And it is time for T again over at   Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog.  This is where we share our drink related posts and catch up with friends. Even those friends who are new to us.

Hopefully Elizabeth will get her computer back working also.

So back in August  (you might remember) my daughter and I had a couple of reservations for one of the State Park beaches in my local area.  Because this beach area shrinks a lot at high tide, we  wanted to go during low tide because we would have much more beach and space. The first time we went the low tide was in the morning. The second time we went it wasn't until later in the afternoon. So before the beach we arranged to meet my husband for lunch at a restaurant that has a large and very nice outdoor seating area. 

I hadn't been there since Covid began, so when we went that day, it was interesting to see what they were doing.

And instead of menus, (which you could get if you wanted a paper version), you could hold your smartphone up to the scan and get the menu over your phone. I'm sure some of you have seen this, but I hadn't. What a great idea.

Of course I forgot to take a photo of my salad ( but it contained a turkey burger in lettuce, beets, dried cranberries, walnuts, tomato slices and blue cheese crumbles). For for my drink you can see I had a Diet Coke and also you can see my daughter's water.

And my last food and drink related part of this post is another Down on the Farm tag for Tag Tuesday and Valerie's challenge.

Hope you have a wonderful T day.

Also, as always, thanks for visiting.
