Serenity Saturday #7 - 2025 An Unexpected Dining Experience - Waterfront Winebar Manitowoc, WI (2/15/2025)

 

 Such a storm..."don't leave home" ...

We had a slow start, a big breakfast, and the plan was to stay in jammies all day long. Until the teenage boy called asking for a ride to work. So much for that!

"Get dressed you guys"

"we don't want to"

"me either - but since I have to, you do too. Might as well take ourselves out for dinner too"

"really mom?"

"yes - really"

"where are we eating?"

"As long as we are taking Andre to the Waterfront Wine Bar, we may as well eat there. I love their wine and I could go for some prime rib"

"count me in!" (the first thing the children agreed on ALL day!)

We spent a cozy evening in my favorite restaurant enjoying all of the amazing Valentine things without the crowd. I fully expected to spend the day at home reading and catching up on work. This was WAY better! 

Today's post was penned by Crystal J. Casavant with the help of her deep forehead wrinkle, Charles.

Crystal Casavant writes. Everything. If you follow her blog you have likely laid eyes on every thought she has ever had. Her debut novel, It Was Never About Me, Was It? is still a work in progress and shall be fully worthy sometime in 2025. She has written for WOW! Women on Writing, Bring on Lemons, and has been featured in several magazines and ezines relating to credit and collections as well as religious collections for confessional Lutherans. She runs a busy household full of intelligent, recalcitrant, and delightful humans who give her breath and keep her heart beating day after day. 

Crystal wears many hats (and not just the one in this photo) and fully believes in being in the moment and doing everything she can to improve the lives of those around her! The world may never know her name, but she prays that because of her, someone may smile a little brighter. She prides herself on doing nice things - yes, even for strangers! 

May your paths be abundantly filled with lemons, sugar, sunshine, and may you always remember the world is a better place with you in it and it's always a great time for quiet time and poetry!
