Sweet Chicks ~ Featured on Food Network

Hubby and I headed to a place called

Sweet Chicks



We saw it on Food Network Star last week.
You could almost smell the chicken the way
it was shown and described so we were determined
to go and try it.



45 minute wait but oh my gosh it was so worth it!


It is decorated so cute also







It was a beautiful day in NYC . . .



Next up John's of 12th Street
I hear they have world famous meatballs.

10th Avenue Burrito

One of our favorite restaurants
finally opened in Red Bank about
a mile from our home.

It was scheduled to open beginning of summer but you
know how construction project go.

It finally opened and we are delighted.
They have the best Mexican food around.

We went the 3rd day they were opened.
This location sits on the Navesink and you can enjoy
dinner watching the boats go by.

55th Wedding Anniversary

My dearest friends are celebrating 55 years !
They have been an example to me of love, caring,
loyalty, friendship, perseverance and faith.
I met
Sara and Cliff when I was just 7 years old and we
moved next door to them in Oceanport.
I quickly became their sixth child. I went on every trip with
them from skiing in Vermont to visiting family in Michigan.
They rounded up all the children on the street and took
us to VBS and Sunday School.  My foundation of
faith began because these dear people lived their
faith.

We headed out to Lewisburg PA to celebrate !

 

Cindy, Cliff, Luke, Lydie and Holly

Sara & Cliff

 

They have quite a legacy of children, grandchildren
and 1 great-grandchild and one on the way.

Maddie, Olivia and Caden (Jack couldn't make the trip)

We had an blast all getting together and it is not easy
as we are spread out all over.
