Ultimate Food Post

I thought I would make a master food post! Some people love and some people hate the food of social media. It helps me remember special moments, big and small, when I take a picture of a meal because food is such a large part of our lives, social gatherings, marking big moments in life, and little moments with loved ones.

James made us crepe type pancakes with peanut butter, syrup, bananas, and peaches on them. It was so good and fun!

My Mom and I got Thai at a chain place that's really good but we never go! This was a while ago, now.

One of those times I whined for James to make me breakfast. He's so sweet.

 A friend of the family has a beautiful lavender farm where she had talks, a shop, demonstrations. This was one of the last days due to a terrible neighbor dispute. Lavender scone and tea.

 A mega display of one of our favorite meals (and this was one of the first ones when we started to make them often, when we still lived in Rochester), a platter with quiche, grapes, cheese, break, grapes, apples, corn muffins, fresh baked bread.

Went to a coffee shop in Ferndale once with my Mom and Dad. I got a hot apple cider, mega with whipped cream. We shared that giant chocolate chip cookie.

Oh, the fun! A good friend of mine and I went to Disney World and Wizarding World of Harry Potter in November 2014. This was our meal in Downtown Disney the day we got there. We split the burger and fish and chips and it was all very delicious.

February of 2015 I held a Harry Potter Book Night Party in lieu of Bloomsbury... thing. Here is the food table!

Husband loves Indian food, being from England (may be hard for some to understand that but I'm not going into it now), and we found a pretty good place, right in town! It's expensive though. They do a lot of groupons which we get as gifts -- that's when we go.

A nearby town, Birmingham, has this wonderful Alice in Wonderland themed restaurant. When the Husband and I went, we accidentally got quite tipsy and we really, really enjoyed our food and our time there.

Husband set up a last minute escape to Saginaw in hopes of seeing the Northern Lights during a special occurrence. The place we stayed at was kind of terrible! They locked up, and us in, at 9 pm and we couldn't see anything. I crawled in and out of our window. At least we upgraded to a large room downstairs where I could, and with a fireplace and Jacuzzi tub. Here's our not very good breakfast.

A favorite of my family's that hasn't been around for very long but is wonderful! It's beautiful inside and the food is always outstanding, and the price is comparable to any place around! Rochester Brunch House.

Husband and I enjoying time reading on the balcony with tea and macarons.

One of our traditions, you know how they just come to be? is to get dip'n'dots icecream at the Zoo.

 A beautiful display of baked good of a bakery in Hamtramck, I went on a big fun journey there with my mom and two of her friends.

 There's a really delicious vegetarian restaurant, Inn Season, in town that we like to walk to. It's very good but quite expensive so we don't go often. Here's a bad picture of a visit where I got a stir fry.

Dip'n'dots at the Zoo again!

A Detroit excursion with the Ladies, again. This one at Sister Pie with lime and mint cookies. They didn't have any savory pies left for me...

 Another wonderful meal at RBH

A time my Mom and I were hanging out and we went to an old favorite of the Husband's and I, when we lived in Rochester. Give Thanks Bakery. It was my Mom's first time there. I got this wonderfully dense savory scone with spinach and cheese.
 My Dad and Brother stopped at a bakery in Grosse Pointe while my mom and I stopped at one too. We all got to my parents' house and had a feast of baked goods.

An early morning with James, jet lagged from England we had been up since 4 am. We thought it was open 24 hours but ended up waiting in the drive through for ten minutes.
