We have a tradition of me taking the kids out to lunch for their birthday. So yesterday morning, before Reese left for school, I asked her where she would like to go. She said, “The place with all the cinnamon rolls!”
The place with all the cinnamon rolls?
“Yeah,” she said, “the place where you can pick whatever you want to eat!”
Do you mean the Buffet place that Grandma took us to? The place with the ice cream cones?
“Yes! Yes! I want to go there!”
Soo…..I picked her up form school at lunch time and drove out to the restaurant. On the way, my sister called. I told her about the morning’s exchange. “Oh! You’re going to CiCi’s?” she said.
Oh. The CINNAMON ROLL place. It hit me. That’s what she was talking about. Too late. We had just pulled up in front of Old Country Buffet.
Luckily, Reese didn’t complain. She was more than happy to fill her plate up with bread and cantalope. Yum!
AJ enjoyed his cantalope, too…..along with his “sour” rice and chicken (I think he was thinking “spicy”)
Reese found the cinnamon rolls (not as good as CiCi’s though)
And then they finished it off with some soft serve ice cream.
Perfect! (They both had sick tummies when they got home. Too much melon!)
