First, we stopped at Wynnewood for Oklahoma Round-up Vintage Market. I had seen it advertised so we checked it out. $5 admission was for a child that was being treated at the Shriner's Hospital and redeemable at the food booth there.
Our next stop was at Crest' Grocery in Norman. The previous week when checking out with groceries, I saw a flier advertising roasted Hatch peppers from New Mexico.
When we were making trips to Santa Fe, I would always purchase some. Yes, I bought some to have fresh and in the freezer to use in cooking.
The OKC Patriots Game
Mathew's middle school varsity team was scouting for their game the next Tuesday.
It was fun being together to cheer for Jacob and the Patriots team!!
Emma and McKaylea were "water girls" for the game.
The final score - Yay!! The Patriots won!!!
A funny story - during the game while visiting with each other, Amberlea asked where we had eaten since we were in OKC. We told her Golden Corral and how we enjoyed it. The food was fresh and the price very reasonable. She had to tease us that the week before we had eaten at Braum's (Jett's choice) and this week a buffet. She couldn't believe that we drove all the way to OKC just to eat there.
Mel shared how that we were asking questions when we first went in (about 3:00 p.m.) - about the price, what we needed to do, etc. After the cashier explained, Mel said, "Well, we qualify for the senior citizen's discount". She replied, "Yes, I know, they are the only ones who come in to eat this time of day!!" Mel thought maybe we were beginning to look our age and more!!
Amberlea asked what we had. She seem intrigued when I told her I had cheese enchilada with black-eye peas, mac & cheese, beans, meatloaf, salad and a garlic cheese biscuit. What a combination !! to top it off was peach cobbler and ice cream. Mel said he ate the seafood.
What a laugh we enjoyed over this and Amberlea's teasing!! She told us she would look for some coupons so we could be more adventuresome on a budget!! We have so much fun together with various funny stories.
A great time and a win to boot!! What more could anyone ask??
