Hi Twinklestars! Happy Sunday!
I am relieved to report there's been no more 24 hour video games for young Milo - I know some peeps can handle it, but the little guy needs his rest!
So today, Milo & Cowboy & I went to the historic district of Havana, FL-its a sweet little group of creative, eclectic, sometimes eccentric, but always creative people who are business owners, artists, great cooks, and most importantly, neighbors.
One of the loveliest places to catch up with the local gossip-er, news-is the Tomato Cafe. Ms. Cheryl Moore (who says to let you know she's on Facebook tinyurl.com/tomato cafe) has everything on the menu-from mimosas to meringue-and of course, afternoon tea! We asked Milo if he wanted to try something inside~ Milo was down for it!
(Stained glass window partition between sitting room and the actual tearoom, so pretty! And Cowboy drools over brick and wood. Ah, the ceiling, he says dreamily.)
Milo finds the corner with hats, boas, tiaras and beads, and er, makes himself at home. The waitresses LOVE him!
And then lunch arrives. We're going with lighter fare today, but you can order pizza, the best burger in town, a salad, or-tomato soup and tomato pie, of course!
After lunch we head back outside to do some window shopping-there's so much to see, but Milo is playing in the geraniums! Milo!
It's stil hot but we don't mind, because the sun is out and the sky is blue. Still, even in the Florida heat, Milo says he feels a tinge of fall, too...
We walk a little more and Milo yawns-whaddya know? We wore him down! I offer up my straw purse for a napping spot, but Milo spies a favorite past time for all southern folks~
Aaaaaahhhh. Southern bliss. Yep.
Until next time!!
OXOXOXOXOXOXO Rhonda Roo & Milo too!
I laughed for 27 minutes straight...seriously. This is good stuff! Ces is correct-his smile IS getting bigger. This is just so darn cute and clever. Stealing another pic to send peeps over. This post deserves attention!!! **kisskiss** Deb

Great to see Milo made it safely, going to check to see what else he's been up to at Roo's.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I cannot believe the women are taking him out like he is the king! HAHAHAHAHAHA! What a cutre bug. What I want to see is the reaction of the people when you are taking photographs of Milo all over the place! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!. He looks so tiny on that rocking chair. I can't wait to have him and take him wherever I go. HAHAHAHA!
