Our new family hangout


The Conestoga Wagon
We have lived on Lancaster County for a little over four years now. We have lived near this restaurant for a little over four years now and never tried it. I took Middle and Youngest on Saturday night to give it a whirl. J was busy at his school chaperoning the Homecoming Dance. (There is a story there, but I will save it for another post. It's a good one too!) Oldest went to her Homecoming Dance at her high school.

What made me finally try out this new hangout? About two weeks ago J went with some of the other administrators from his school and gave me his review. He decided that it was a good family place, decent food, good prices, the oh, so important kid friendly, and about 7 minutes from our house.

The Conestoga Wagon is a place that I passed many times when I took Oldest for her riding lessons down in Conestoga, but I never gave it much thought. That's too bad; we could have been eating there for the last four years. So now we know. So now we will be there often cause their corn fritters are a dish I could eat all by themselves. I am sure the calorie and fat count aren't on the healthy side, but this Southern girl gobbled them up in no time flat. Yummy!!

Construction Trucks @ 6:30 AM????







6:30 freakin' AM the stupid trucks are out there moving dirt. Um, HELLO?! Do you know how to tell time - nothing is suppose to move until 7 AM. Gawd! Now I lost 35 minutes of precious sleep 'cause you are ignorant.

ETA: The construction trucks will be outside of my house for the next four months since a new house is being constructed. Lovely, just lovely.

Ugh...no, they are not! Darn it all, they are!

Just fantastic - I look up from the computer and there are surveyors on the lot next door marking lines. I so do NOT want a house put on the lot next to us. I love having that open space. I dread the noise, the debris, the traffic... I am not going to be a happy girl the next four months as the new house goes up.
