It all started with thinking about what
to serve for Mother's Day.
Mamaw's favorite meal? Burger & Fries!
Atmosphere? Hey Daddy-O! what about
a diner, a 50's diner?
Hung out the shingle and cranked up the Juke Box.
Used records, aka 78's for chargers, but I had to
make new labels to fit the occasion.
Designed a menu with Moondoggy's cool car on the cover.
Burger
Fries
Onion Rings
Coke Floats
Had big plans for pictures...but you know how it goes!Onion Rings (best I have ever made) & Fries came out of
the Fry Daddy, assembled the burgers--to order--
and delivered to the hungry customers...
next thing I knew we are sitting back talkin'
'bout how good everything was and...
OMGosh! no pictures:-(
The place was hoppin' & bobbin'...around the clock!
Mamaw may be 92 but she can still cut a rug!
No time for shoppin' but look what I found
in the back of my closet.
(why this was in my closet is a whole 'nother story)
MIL is still talkin' about 'THE BEST'
party ever!

ps Pony, Monkey, or Twist on over to Susan's for
more tables deck out for a good time.
