Apricots, Crab, Lobster and Civic Duty

I was at the hairdresser the other day and he offered me one of his apricots. It was so delicious I decided to get some more! I usually get peaches. Apricots are a bit smaller in appearance. I remember them being very popular in Europe when I was there several years ago.




My day started off on the right foot yesterday when the receptionist at the gym greeted me: 'I LOVE your top'....well, all I could say was 'Thank You' with a big smile! It was actually a tank top given to me as a birthday present recently.

M has a few days of vacation so we met a friend for what turned out to be a lobster and crab lunch at a Chinese seafood restaurant. The food was delicious and the price was very reasonable. K also came along. We don't often have lobster and crab so I felt as if I was celebrating something. It's never a problem thinking of something to celebrate! In any case, I gave thanks for the delectable meal.

L told me they gave out free apples at her train station, an Ipad promotion.

Another good thing that happened recently was that I complained about a traffic light needing to be fixed. The town immediately opened a work order and the light was fixed within a few days! It had been broken for weeks, maybe a month.

Don't you just love good days? (-:

Oh yes! I LOVE good days! I remember having apricots straight from the tree in California. My sister-in-law has a tree. It was THE MOST wonderful fruit. I don't think I've tasted anything like it since.
