Thomas is spending the night with the Romano Duo so Lillian and I get to have a day and a half long date. Started with a late afternoon walk.
First up on the October 2014 Lillian n Camilla date … Appetizers of tater tots and fries from Sonic and then a main course of homemade nachos!
We decided that the rest of the date would just be hanging out together and reading before heading to the Romano Casa for dinner and to retrieve Team Member T! We stopped by one of our favorite used book stores and it’s not there anymore!

It’s a beautiful, awesome, magical day to be alive! Today I get to go on a date with one of the most amazing, inspiring people I know … the one I get to call my son. Here’s Thomas with the most giant snowball in the World that he made yesterday during our walk. Huge smiles and hugs y’all!
First stop on the November Camilla n Thomas Date Day … a fabulous lunch … thank you Marcy Barba for the gift card! YUM!
Next stop on the T & C Date Day …. sea salt caramel for Thomas and dark chocolate covered cherry for me! Pure heaven for the taste buds! For my non-local friends, Dorinda ships! The pumpkin truffle is soooooooo good!
After Dorinda’s Chocolates we took a long walk along the riverfront for the next phase of our T & C date day! Had much thought and conversation about how Thomas could become a duck. He enjoyed the ducks so much …. So beautiful and peaceful!
Last stop on the November Thomas & Camilla Date Day … Park time! Brrrrrr! It was chilly out there!

Lillian and Camilla November 2015 Date Day …
Trader Joe’s for some groceries. It was packed and had to park further out then ever! I was inspired by Angela’s post a few days ago and grabbed 2 stray carts to return as we were walking to the entrance. It was like a can of sardines in there! Yet, we enjoyed ourselves and I smiled at everyone I could. Shared some giggles with people I don’t know and it was great.
As I was taking my cart back to the store, a person who parked near us offered to take my cart back and wished me a Happy Thanksgiving!! I love loving-kindness! Then we went to Whole Foods for a gluten free dessert for Lillian. Then home for a candlelight dessert. Mini eggnog cheesecake for me and a red velvet macaroon for Lillian. xoxo
Lillian and Camilla November 2015 Date Day … A beautiful, crisp walk around the lake. xoxo
