Open Air Frozen Treats

When I was reading blogs this morning Mevely reminded me that August 31st is Eat Outside Day. 

Lunch was on the run, and it was too sunny for Hubby Tony and I to eat dinner on the deck, but there was nothing that said that our al fresco eating had to be an entire meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our ice cream from a stand not too far from our house. I had pink champagne sorbet. He ordered scoops of dark chocolate and vanilla.

We sat on a bench and listened to music coming from the patio of a restaurant across the street. Large trees made the area quite shady, and it was a beautiful night to be outside.

  2. Is that ice cream stand behind the train station? Years ago I used to do open mic witht he St. Louis Writer's Guild at the station. One night so many trains came through, the moderator said, "If anyone's reading gets interrupted, I will buy you an ice cream." I think he bought half a dozen that night from that stand.

    1. Yes it is, but I'm trying to figure out how you managed to figure out where we were from the photo!
