Day 267, August 29, 2013

Today was NNW's first meet and greet for
NNW's new year.  Lovely day, a bit chilly
and breezy, but still beautiful at Compo!
Good to see old friends and make
a few new as well.

Wonderful surprise!
My friend Barrie made me this amazing
scarf with the wish "I never have to
use it."  Barrie and I both love the summer.
But I will always think of her when
I wear this beautiful piece of art!
Thank you Barrie!!!
 
NNW Book Club
We read "Beach House" by
Jane Green, lucky for us,
Jane lives in Westport and
joined our meeting at
Compo Beach tonight!
Jane is warm, funny and interesting!
Look forward to reading a few more
of her books.  The next one is out
in March and is centered around Westport!!!

"Oblivion"
at The Westport Country Playhouse
By Carly Mensch
World Premiere!
Great play, Carly is a writer
for "Weeds" and "Nurse Jackie."
So, no surprise that I liked the play.

Day 265, August 27, 2013

Saw "The Butler" with
Peggy and Sheila.
Very good movie on many levels.
I certainly don't agree with the politics
of the movie, but it dealt with much
more than that.  Glad I went!

Day 264, August 26, 2013

David and I love Mexican food!!!
We had our place, Los Cabos.
They went out of business in December.
So, we have really missed our favorite
food and today decided to try and find a good
Mexican restaurant.  David used "YELP" and found
a place in Norwalk, I had seen their ad and we
decided to go for it!  Nice looking place, plenty
 of parking in the back and a nice rear entrance.
Once in, we see our old waitress, Diana from Los Cabos. The food was even better than LC, the place
is nicer and our waitress remembered our
drink order, so we now have our place,
Don Carmelo's, it was a good day!
