Bom Apetite!

I’m driving back from New York, having that classic discussion.  “Where do  you want to eat?”  “I don’t know, what do you feel like?” “I don’t care.  Whatever you want.”  We’ve all been there.  And you might have even been by yourself like I was.  The miles rolled by as I considered all my choices and how they fit into what I was craving.  I went back and forth a couple of time and then thought of the Azorean.  I smiled to myself, relaxed and drove the remaining my miles very pleased with my decision.  It checked all the boxes and was my first stop upon returning to town.

I wasn’t disappointed.  I have to say I kind of love the recent availability of Fall Sangria type drinks everywhere we go.  It was a nice, easy, light choice for my late lunch.  I’d been craving pizza so I ordered the Italian.  It was just the right (smallish) size and loaded with meat and firm fresh veggies.  I also wanted to have something different for later, so I ordered the sirloin tip appetizer to go—-perfect!!!  They will be yummy later this evening–I can see big chunks of garlic making me glad I’ll be alone tonight and won’t have to share.
