Longaberger Day!

Today was the day! Longaberger at Dresden, Ohio. I made sure we were there by the time they opened, and we did good. We got there 1/2 hour before opening. There was a basket shop across the way that was open early, so we went in there and looked around waiting for the opening bell at 10 am.

Mom, Cheryl & I made baskets. Mom had a lady help her, Cheryl and I had Wilbur as our basket maker teacher. He was crazy funny. He was a talker.

Here I am making my basket:


Here is Cheryl, Wilbur & me with our finished baskets:



After shopping the outlet store, it was nearly the end of the day. Everyone was asking me what we would be doing next, so I made an executive decision & said we would go to the old downtown Dresden and eat at Popeye's. Everyone seemed to be happy with that decision. This is what I had:


Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla
A sun-dried tomato tortilla grilled to a golden brown stuffed
with chicken, cheddar and Monterey jack cheese and hot
sauce. Served with lettuce, tomato, sour cream and salsa

It was yummy. Cheryl got a side of sweet potato fries and shared them with me.


Oh - Heidi drove over from Columbus and hung out with us today too. That was fun to see her & her two cute little kids.




Here's my last picture of the day - the big basket in the old downtown shopping center of Dresden:
