The One and Only...
Friday morning, I paid a visit to my friend Sandy.  She is a crazy quilter just like me.  We talked quillts for an hour or so and then we went to Ivanhoes for lunch.  I had never been and it was quite an experience!  They are famous for their icecream and their fruit.  Funny, huh?  So I had their "chicken salad."  Two BIG ice cream scoops of really great chicken salad- Sarah, I don't think you'd go for it- it had lots of yummy stuff in it- like pecans and pineapple and celery.  It was excellent.  But the funny thing is how they serve it. On top of a boatload of fresh fruit!  Enough fruit for 6 people- at least 4 cups, maybe more.  Incredible. I ate the chicken, but I barely made a dent in all that fruit!  I didn't get to try the famous icecream- I was just too stuffed- but they have 100 different sundaes to choose from.  When I saw the waitress' T, I just had to have one!  Isn't the color edible?  So if you are ever in Upland, you should try Ivanhoes. You can't miss it- it will be the place with a packed parking lot and even a line out the door if you come on the weekend!

I love chicken salad!! Sounds yummy with the pineapple and pecans. That shirt will look great with your red hair!!
I LOVE chicken salad with pineapple in it! That's how they fix it at Jason's Deli here in B'ham. And I always get a side of fruit with mine so I'd be a happy camper at Ivanhoes. can we go there next time I'm up??
Hey - I like pecans and I love pineapple. Celery I can take or leave. How big were the chunks of celery? If they are small enough I will eat them. My main problem is raw onions or pickles. Yuck!
Love you!
Mmmm...that sounds delightful! What a great treat to share with a good friend!
Love you heaps!
