Did the moms and caregivers out there have a wonderful weekend? I sure hope so.
The HH and I went to Shelton Vineyards for dinner. They had a special Mother's Day Selection. It started with either a salad, soup, or another selection they had listed. Fried Tortellini, maybe? I chose the salad. The croutons were hands down the best I've ever had.
For the main course I went with the vegetarian option and the HH got Mai Mai. And yes I did end up bringing a box home, since my plate was overflowing;)
And.....I brought most of my dessert home too:) The HH had half of his cheesecake finished before I managed to snap a pic of it:)
And on our way out the door, the ladies were given a rose and a little box of macarons.
This is a picture of the vineyards. There's a rose bush at the beginning of each row. The roses are blooming and are so pretty.
AND
I saw this hydrangea at Home Depot. You can't really tell from my picture but the flower is huge. It's the biggest hydrangea that I've ever seen. It was probably three times larger than my hand and I don't have small hands.
AND
The Amaryllis is blooming.
AND last but not least, if you have an opportunity check out this trailer. It is just amazing. It's about a wild fish and the unusual friend he made.

I am so glad that you had a wonderful weekend. Leftovers are a bonus aren't they?
Hi Sandra - looks like a lovely meal you both had - so glad you enjoyed it and had the little extras. Love the idea of roses in and around the vineyard ... cheers Hilary
Lol...I'm a sucker for sweet stories like in the video! I love little Elvis!! He's found a human he likes...too cute.
Thanks for sharing it!

So glad you had a fun Mother's Day. I'm a vegetarian, and you meal looked yummy.
Looks like you had a delicious weekend. I hope you have a fabulous week, too.
A lovely Mother's Day meal!
Nice place to go for a meal. And wow, your plate was overflowing!
Happy Mother’s Day! I hope you had a lovely day and it seems you did. That’s a. Huge meal but it looks delicious and so does the dessert. It’s also very nice that you received the rose and macarons. That’s a nice restaurant. That video is amazing! That fish was just like a dog and when Elvis was chasing the other fish away, it reminded me of my Harley who is so jealous when we show affection to the pussy cats.
Absolutely beautiful.

It sounds like you had a wonderful mother’s day. I am certain I would not be able to finish the food. I went to a festival in the park. A lot of food vendors, music and tulips everywhere.

EC, Thanks. I could exist on leftovers:) Though, that's a bit of an oxymoron isn't it:)
