We were delighted to return to Yella on the Water along the boulevard for dinner recently. Ewan and Jackie were our servers and we felt well taken care of. We ordered drinks and contemplated the menu. Iur appetizer was the humus arwarma (out of this world). I have been missing their chicken wings all winter, so I ordered those. Jim got short rib ravioli which he enjoyed every bit of. We also tried the panna cotta for a shared dessert. Just the right way to end the meal! We were fortunate to be able to see Carlo and welcome them back. As always, the food and service were outstanding. See you soon again at Yella!

In the meantime, every time I go into the library, I find something new and delightful. This time it’s the availability of bird watching kits! Nicely done, Sawyer Free!
