Taggarts

Welcome to Taggarts!  This is the sign we first saw when we pulled up to check what time they opened.  Today is April Fools however this sign is not a joke!

Taggarts is a fun place to go for lunch.  I think the peacocks are such a fun part of Taggarts.  Even the restrooms have cool rod iron peacocks in them.  I know the men's does too because it seems that I always go in the men's restroom when I am at Taggarts.  (it's the one that is empty when I need to go)  I realized that today was the first time I actually used the women's and that was after using the men's first.  The women's is a little brighter.  So there's a little info on the restrooms.

Mr Peacock was putting on quite the show today.  He was trying to impress the female peacock but she was not interested in him at all. (or so it seemed)  She kept moving away and wouldn't even look at him as he shook his feathers and  jiggled his rear.  It interested us and others from the restaurant.  I got a little crazy with my camera.  He is so beautiful and was strutting his stuff so much I couldn't help myself.  Isn't he gorgeous?

 Lunch was wonderful.  It was so cool that Kim was able to come all the way from Logan to join us. Jodi and Kim are good sports for coming our way. I absolutely love these ladies!  We will have to accommodate them again soon.

Patti taught us about a sight that guides missionary parents in their travels if they decide to pick up their missionaries.  It sounded so good.  It was good info for Jodi since she has a missionary in Brazil that she wants to pick up.

Dave told us about a lady who showed her kindness.  Dave had a few things going on and while standing in a check out line rolled her eyes because the gal checking out seemed to be taking long.  I believe it was the next lady that was just ahead of Dave that looked at her and asked how her day was. Then after Dave made a comment the lady asked Dave if she needed a hug.  That in itself is a great kindness.  The lady was walking away and stopped and came back to Dave and put something in her hand and told Dave that she believed she needed this.  It ended up being a beautiful coin that said something about God knows and will help you through.  (not sure exactly how she put it but that was the jest)

Another wonderful part of Taggarts is their yummy treats.  I usually just admire how wonderful they look.  Occasionally I order a cookie.  The cookies are huge and last a few days.  Today I bought enough for my family. I figured since it was April Fools, I'd fool them by bringing them home a yummy treat.  Talking of yummy treats.....Jodi brought us mini powdered doughnuts for the drive.  I knew better than to try one because my cute friend is a prankster and I knew she came prepared.  I was right!  Kim tried one and ended up throwing it out the window.  Tee Hee.....Jodi had dusted them all with baking soda!  She's such a funny gal!

 I didn't bring a Sunshine Bag today but I did bring a Sunshine Treat!  When the people came and sat at this table I only noticed this little boy.  I felt like he could use some added Sunshine.  He was so cute with such a big smile.....it was after I gave him the treat that I noticed he was the only boy.  I love spreading a little Sunshine every now and then.  It warms my soul as well!

 It's a good thing my soul was warm because when we headed home Mother Nature had fooled us all!  It was a blizzard!  I had a hard time seeing and my windshield wipers were noisy and not clearing my window very well.  The roads were slushy and I was a tiny bit nervous.  The gals were kind and encouraging though.  Look how white it is outside....it wasn't like that going up.

It was a fun day and the weather cleared the closer I got to home.  My family loved the cookies even though I didn't remember to give them to them until the evening.  For some reason April is a favorite month of mine.
