Arizona – Tuesday, November 15

Tuesday morning Joe’s parents took us out to breakfast at one of the places they like to frequent that they call “the hole”. I enjoyed a breakfast burrito with bacon while Joe had eggs with biscuits and gravy.

Breakfast Burrito

After dropping his parents off at home we ran some errands (I think to get a towel and some toothpaste) and then decided to try a place called Joyride Taco House for Taco Tuesday. We arrived at 1:30 pm and it wasn’t until we were ordering that we learned their special $2 Taco Tuesday event doesn’t start until 2 pm. It would have been nice if they had mentioned that on the phone when I called to ask which tacos were included in the special. Grrr!

While it was nice to enjoy their outdoor seating (I really love that part about Arizona), the taco themselves were not worth almost $4 each. I think the meal was the second most disappointing one we had during our trip.

Later that afternoon Joe’s niece, M, came over with her daughter, O, who is just the cutest little thing. She’s sixteen months old and very smart – M taught her sign language. They aren’t deaf – it’s just easier than trying to understand baby babble. We had ran to Target before heading “home” to grab a gift card and a few little things for the baby. I got her a small purple Care Bear and a sippy cup with Minnie Mouse on it. I wanted to buy her so many things but tried to control myself. M’s husband, J, came by in the evening and grilled steaks for dinner. We left it to him since he’s an executive chef at TopGolf so he knows his stuff. Needless to say, dinner was delicious! J is a really nice guy too. I’m happy for M.
