Cool Ride

  • For lunch I scooped up Baby C and headed to the mall to buy a quick fathers day gift.

    Big C intimated that he'd gladly welcome the following items for fathers day as my initial idea of the new Sony PlayStation Vita fell through as it's not even being sold yet

    Men and their toys....could my new camera lens be considered a toy? Nah

    Anyhoo, the "old man" is interested in the new

    Keurig Machine 

    And a Banana Republic Gift Card


    The two combined coffee and clothes make me laugh at how old we're both getting!!!
  • On the ride to the mall for the gift card I passed a public bus with a bike perched on the front...

    "A great new way for you to get around the Island.
    Take your bike with you to work, school, or just for fun.
    The racks are convenient, easy to use, and your bike rides
    for free! No permit is required. It’s a healthy, economical,
    and environmentally friendly way to get where you need to go."


    I've never seen or heard of this before and think it's a neat idea, and sign we truly heading in the right direction. I wish all public buses offered this service.
  • On the ride back from the mall Baby C inquired as to what was left in her lunch bag. I told her tortilla chips or sliced apples with cheese. Her face lit up at the apples and cheese. And as I watched her in my rear view mirror, happily munching away, it reminded me of my younger years. I love sharing a bite of apple and then a bite of cheese with my mother. It's funny how the little things just stick with you.

  1. Next time a picture of her munching on apple and cheese please!
    Big C has good taste but I'm not surprised. Do you have any plans for Sunday? xx

  4. Wait a minute, did you mean that the interest in the Keurig coffee machine and the Banana Republic gift card makes you OLD? Yikes, I think of them as things for the young, so what does that make me?

    Oh yes, a bite of apple and a bite of cheese. I think I'll have that today too:)

  5. I put out an APB a year or so ago, to everyone about which coffee maker to buy. Hands down everyone said Keurig, but I went with Cuisinart because I took a carafe of coffee to work with me every day. (Old job didn't have coffeemaker in the office, I had to take my own.)

    New job: Office has Keurig.

    Get. the. Keurig.

    I now try to figure out how I could possibly justify the purchase of another coffee machine for home.
