House Tour

A couple weeks ago my brother and sister-in-law came to visit for a couple days. He's a semi-retired radiologist and had a week of freedom from reading x-rays. They arrived on Tuesday at lunchtime. We headed directly for Wegman's for lunch. Strange to eat at a grocery store. You usually buy food there and bring it home to prepare it and have meals. But Wegman's offers something extra. During lunch hour there's a section right in the front of the store where a chef with a huge hot grill does his act from 11:30 until 2:30 every day. It's always a surprise what lunch is going to be. The Tuesday afternoon we went it was a Greek gyro. The main ingredient is that wonderful combination of beef and lamb that is used for gyros. Then the "fixin's" are all your choice. Lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and tzizicki sauce. If you don't like one, just say so, if you like a lot of one, again, just say so. It's made to order. We took our lunch up the elevator (an elevator in a grocery store??????) We ate on the balcony overlooking the shopping area. Nirvana......... While we were visiting with the chef, we told him we were hoping that today would be the day for Philly cheese steaks. He said, "no, that's tomorrow". So, naturally, lunch on Wednesday would also be at Wegman's. I'll leave the rest of our adventures for another post and get to the point of this post, which is a house tour. My brother loves to shoot, shoot, shoot with his smart phone. He walked through my house shooting pictures. He sent me all the pictures of our very busy two and a half day mini vacation and I made him a paper bag scrapbook as a remembrance. Come along with me on a tour of my home.............

  1. I've never lived near a Wegmans. Sounds like a great store. And did you have to mention Tzatziki? It's one of my very favorite things.

  3. First, let me say that lunch sounds fabulous!

    I see a pair of roller skates up there on the top shelf - very nostalgic for me. Love the juicer and the chopper also.
