OUR YOUNGEST HEATHER MOORE FAN....or was it just the crackers??

Well, we successfully had our second Heather Moore trunk show this past Friday and, as usual, it was a huge hit.  To be honest though, I think some of our attendees were really there more for the Tea Forte tea and the cheese and crackers table.  I was lucky enough to catch one such client in the act.

This is Julia, probably one of the cutest little kids ever!  She pretended at first to be interested in the jewelry and was a really patient on-looker as her mom put together her Heather Moore necklace "wish list" for Mother's Day.  But then as her mom got more involved in all of the incredible charms and options of Heather Moore, Julia, in a stroke of genius spied the cheese table and slowly made her way over there, found a little 100 year old children's chair and plopped down for a hearty snack of Gouda, Swiss, and some Pepper Jack cheese.  I mean just look at her, who could tell her no.  I'm sure you're all assuming that those cheeks are full of cheese, but guess what, that's just Julia, she has those amazing cheeks that you just want to squeeze or pay tons of money for when you hit your early 50's.

BEST MOJITOS EVER!!

 All I can say is if it's after 5pm and you can't find me inside Marmalade, there is a very good chance you can find me at the bar at Don Emilio's sipping one of their incredibly delicious mojito's.

 The other night my kids and I tried Don Emilio's for the first time and were blown away by how fresh and delicious the food was.  I have the kind of kids that always find something on their plate to complain about, whether it be a texture, a color, or the ever famous "wasn't how I was expecting it to look" complaint,  but this night there were no complaints.  They gobbled down their scrumptious cheese and chicken quesado's like they hadn't eaten all day (which come to think of it, maybe they hadn't......oops!)  

A few nights later I met a friend there for drinks and that was when I discovered the mojito's.  Oh, don't get me wrong,  I'm no stranger to a good mojito, but they usually come in those little skinny tall glasses and after a few sips they usually lose that great minty flavor and there really isn't much more than a few sips of liquid in the glass, you're always wishing for more.  But that was not the case at Don Emilio's, it was served in a beautiful curved glass that held more that enough ounces to make one forget the week's worries, and the delicious mint lasted all the way until my last slurp.  I would give it a full 10 out of 10.

So, take my advice, give Don Emilio's a try, you'll be very glad you did!
