Harry and David...

I'm still in Oregon, but with only a few more days to go. My girls and I have had a wonderful time with family. It will be hard to leave, but I'm looking forward to getting home and cookin' up some more recipes to share with all of you.

I want to share some photos I took while shopping at Harry and David. Let me tell you...... I heart this store! I won't even get into how much money I dropped here.

They are known for their delicious fruit gift packages. Look at these baskets of cherries! The produce in this store was beautiful!

They also have some pretty tasty treats.

I can't forget the Moose Munch.

Or the nostalgic licorice and gummy treats.

We had a ball tasting all the different flavors of fudge.

 

One more shot of the Moose Munch wall.

I just wish we had a Harry and David on island...

... well, on second thought, maybe not. I don't want to think about how many times a week I would be there shopping!

Oregon...

 

I know it's been a week since my last post... but I've been very busy visiting family in Oregon.

Isn't it beautiful!?!

I just wanted to share a few photos with you. They're not food photos. Sorry. I haven't been cooking...... I'll get back to that in a few weeks.

We stopped in a great store called River Rock, that is next to the Rogue River, which runs right through the town where I am visiting family.

Look at all the yummy goodies made in Oregon! I was very tempted to buy some of these treats to bring back home with me. They probably wouldn't have made it that far anyway, had I bought them... if you catch my drift.

Loved, loved, loved the kitchen display in this shop! This is a cooks dream...

... My mother-in-law and I had a lot of fun browsing this area.

There is a wonderfully nostalgic pharmacy where my husbands family lives, that still has the serving bar and stools. You can order lunch, ice cream, shakes, and phosphates right there at the bar... so much fun!

Phosphates are like a fountain drink. We had so much fun sitting at the counter and drinking our phosphates! I had The Purple Heart. It had cherry, lime, and grape syrup mixed with carbonated water.

And guess how much it cost?

........ 25 cents!!!

My girls and I are having a great time with family... even though we went from about 82 degrees to about 55 degrees. I'm kinda liking the cooler weather. I know, I'm crazy.

You'll probably be reading one more post that doesn't have a recipe in it, but after the 10th I'll be back home and will try to have something for you soon after.

Until next time...
