It’s day 3 of a 4 day weekend here at Carole Knits. Yesterday we drove Hannah, Jessica and Patrick to the airport in New Hampshire so that they could fly to Florida to be with Brant, Heather and Ambrynn. All reports are that they are having a great time. Hannah in particular is loving the warm weather. She must get that from me.
After leaving the airport we headed into downtown Portsmouth to meet up with Cheryl for lunch. I had the world’s largest Bloody Mary.
Yes, that is a sawed off Grey Goose Vodka bottle. Please note the inclusion of the beer glass for scale. Let me just say: yummmm. My sandwich was good too but really, the Monster Mary was the star of my lunch.
Dale and I will be enjoying having the house to ourselves for the next few days. I’ll check in again tomorrow but in the meantime, be well.
Chris Said,
Enjoy your day off!
margene Said,
How were you able to do ANYTHING after a ‘lunch’ like that? Sounds good, however. Enjoy your week;-)
Beth Said,
Have fun with your time off! We have the week off and are looking forward to a break, too.
Amy Said,
I really really really want a glass made out of a sawed-off Grey Goose bottle. Really.
Dawn Said,
The Bloody Mary completely counts as a vegetable. (crap, I think I totally mispelled that!)
Deb Said,
Yum! Enjoy your quiet time!
Julie Said,
Yummy, I love a good Bloody Mary. Haven’t had one in ages, though.
lisa Said,
But was there a whole lot of vodka in there too? Or just more ice and juice? It looks pretty good to me this morning!
Cheryl S. Said,
All I can say is – Whoa Nellie!
Lynne Said,
That looks delicious! Now I am going to be craving a Bloody Mary all day.
Norma Said,
That bloody Mary made me laugh out loud. I think I need one of those…right NOW.
Marcia Cooke Said,
I love Portsmouth! (Hah…you thought I was going to say Bloody Marys, didn’t you!)
Kathy Said,
Holy moley! I’m looking forward to sharing a few with both of you in a few days!!

Alarming Female Said,
mmmm….grey goose….that bloody mary is a meal in itself.
Lucia Said,
Love the monster Mary! And enjoy the peace and quiet (late Valentine’s Day gift?).
Carol Said,
Ah, no wonder no post when I got up this morning
Enjoy!
~Kristie Said,
I bet it was hard not wanting to get on the plane with them. Thankfully you were just there though, so that helps. Enjoy your alone time with Dale. Could be lots of fun
Holy Toledo that bloody mary is HUGE!! I think every restaurant/bar should make them that size.
Kim Said,
Wow….I bet that was the highlight of your lunch! Sounds like you had a good time! Enjoy your time alone, it will pass quickly
JessaLu Said,
Before I read the next sentence I was thinking, “is that…?” and it was. Holy monster of a drink, Batman!
Laura Said,
Have a great Extended Weekend Carole!
Robin in VA Said,
Have a nice “mini-vacation”!
Teyani Said,
I hope that you have enjoyed the quiet at your house – and that you slept in, read a bit, knit a bit and generally relaxed.
