Lost and Found - Perdia!

This weekend we had the great fortune of FINDING a Christmas present that had been lost from Christmas 2006 - a gift certificate for 82 Queen. Even though it had expired, management was wonderful and told us to come on in, so we did! It was Alyssa's first experience of fine dining in the Holy City. Thanks Uncle Brad and AA! Somehow I keep earning my South American nickname, Perdia. FOOTNOTE: Perdio means "I lost" in Spanish - so when I lost my purse and had to speak to our bus driver over the phone, who spoke NO English, my Spanish was so horrific, Brad fell on the floor he was laughing so hard. I earned the female of "lost," Perdia, and it has stuck ever since. AND yes, it was my fault, I had used the gift certificate as a bookmark in a photography book I was reading at Kiawah, Summer of 2007. Another great thing about Drew taking an interest in photography - he found brunch! So here are a few photos from our wet weekend and dining experience DOWNTOWN . . .

March is coming in like a Lion and the Camellia bush is having it's best year ever.

She and her Daddy went to the Children's Museum while I took in Slumdog Millionaire with my friend, Bonnie.

We made the best of a dreary weekend. They are calling for SNOW tonight - Spring you are welcome anytime!
