In May, on my birthday weekend, George and the kids took me to Thomasville for some family fun. Our first stop was Liam's for Saturday brunch.
Liam's serves seriously good food in a down-to-earth atmosphere, and we all enjoyed the gourmet meal - even the kids who both got specially made omelets. It was also super hero Saturday, so we felt right at home with our fellow nerds/comic book fans.
Our next stop was one of my favorite places in Thomasville, The Bookshelf. While I perused the shelves for something special, George and Danny played a game of chess on the local board.
We all love the store, and we could have spent the rest of the afternoon there. However, no visit to Thomasville is ever complete for me without visiting two of my favorite shops, Relish (the best Le Creuset store ever!) and Sweet Grass Dairy Cheese Shop.
If we have time, we always stop at the Dairy for a cheese board and a glass of wine (or Mexican coke for the kids). Leaders of the local slow food movement, we've been visiting the dairy since they raised the goats for their famous chevre. Now, they just focus on the cheese making, and we all enjoy tasting the flavors they pair. Megan and Danny are quickly becoming connoisseurs of cheese and good food in general.
In all, it was a great birthday weekend. Thank you, George, Megan, and Danny, for the wonderful time!

Gorgeous George
This past rainy Saturday, we spent some time at one of my favorite stores, World Market. I love looking at the tea sets, the breakfast trays, the ethnic foods, and our favorite, the wines. George and I went there because we're members of the World Market Rewards club, and as members we get special prices on different pics of wines from different countries, plus some locals from Florida wineries. They also have last chance wines for dirt cheap, and this fits right in with our quest to buy GOOD wines for less than $10. One of these last chanc-ers I just could not pass up. It is called "Gorgeous George," from the Great American Presidents Wine Company. I don't think I need to explain why I couldn't pass up something named "Gorgeous George," do I?
