Happy Saturday.  Hope you enjoy your weekend.  A short post today and the theme is eateries.  The image above is a local joint that we had dinner at last evening.  There was very little choice of entrees other than pizza and fountain pop.  That’s it.  The air conditioning was off and the door open.  As you can imagine it was warm.  I had a cheeseburger pizza, which on a scale of 1 – 10 would rate a strong  one.  😦

Breakfast was another story.  I found this “Classic Diner” for breakfast.  It was spotlessly clean, nice and cool inside and very friendly wait staff.  Heck even the food was good so it was a real winner.

I was about the only one in the place at 5:00 am.  I ordered a ham and cheese omelet and the waitress said, “You can save money if you order our special ham and egg breakfast and you get all the same thing.”  Sounds like a winner to me.

Anyway like I said not a very long blog this morning.  I did want to share the image of the Diner though.  They use to have a “real” dinner in the little town my parents lived in and there were only 16 stools.  No booths or tables.  It truly was a “diner” and if you weren’t a local there you didn’t get the best service or many times the portions of the main entree were pretty small.

Jeanne and her Mother visited there as Jeanne was accepting a teaching job in the town and they decided to have lunch in this “quaint” little dinner.  They finally got waited on and when the food was served, the portions on their plate were about half what it was of the other patrons in the diner had on their plates.  🙂  Gotta lover small towns.

Have a great weekend.  Check back tomorrow if you have time for some more discourse.  Thanks for stopping by and be careful.
