Arnold's Diner

At least once a year, we make sure to drive about 30 minutes south to eat at Arnold's Fabulous Fifties Drive-in. We love the great atmosphere (decorations floor to ceiling, waitress in roller skates and poodle skirts) and the abundance of food they put in our stomachs makes us grin with closed eyes. They also have the World's Smallest Ice Cream Cone and Flavor-Twist ice cream that everyone should give a try. My favorite flavor was always cotton candy.

We gathered our friends and make the short commute one day this summer. The service was terrible for the first time in years that we'd visited, but we got some good pictures out of it. Oh, and the food--it was good.







At one point during our dining experience, someone (I think it was Adam) bet Truc $5 that he couldn't finish his 12-ounce burger. Truc won, and he also had a sundae for dessert. What an eating machine!


If you get a chance to go to Arnold's, bring cash or a checkbook--they don't accept credit cards. If it wasn't for my preparedness, we would've been washing dishes.

Mmm...Baan Thai!

It's been a while, I know, and I'm sorry. Here are some photos from my birthday last month at Baan Thai:

Thai iced tea. Wonderful, and it cost the same amount as a soft drink! We took moderate sips so that our teas would last through the meal.

Thai iced coffee--equally wonderful.

My favorite, "Spicy Fried Rice": Chicken, green peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions in a special Thai sauce.
