Along the Way to St. Peters, Missouri

Hey Everyone, I have a quick post today. I’ve been traveling from Ohio to St. Peters, Missouri. This was one of my shorter journeys so I took my time getting here. I love to visit St. Louis, Missouri and guess what, I had to drive right through it. Since I had some time I decided to stop at 2 of my all time favorite places in St. Louis. First stop, the River City Casino. I love the casino, the sights and sounds just excite me. But I left there shirt less, if you know what I mean, lol. Not really, let’s just say I didn’t win. 🙂

The next stop was a must, Pappy’s Smoke House Restaurant. If you are ever in or near St. Louis you have to try out Pappy’s. Their BBQ is out of this world great! Never, ever had anything as wonderful.

Make sure you get there early for dinner. Once they run out of something it is gone for the day since they smoke it all night.

I got my ribs to go. Enjoyed them here in my hotel room. Hmmmm, ribs, pj’s, 2 different sauces……………dangerous for the diet, lol. Good thing there is a refrigorator and microwave in this hotel room for left overs.

This is a teeshirt that you can pick up at Pappy’s. Russ has one and I made him swear he would never have it on and walk beside me, NEVER!

May your weekend be one great adventure!

Until my next post. . . . . . .

Huge Hugs,

Michelle

A Letter from My Sis. . . . .

Hey Sista,

Just a quick note to say Thank You for sharing Project Give Thanks with your “peeps.” The card-artist community has started the project by sending me about 200 cards! Isn’t that great! The first, Project Give Thanks, box of cards was delivered to the Rocky Mountain Cancer Center’s chemo therapy room last week. During the hour and a half that I was there 4 Cancer Fighters selected three cards each. They really enjoyed looking at every unique & beautiful card while trying to choose and were happily distracted from the infusion process. Also, they were genuinely grateful that someone made those cards for them! I know from experience that sending those cards to family, friends, doctors… will remind the Cancer Survivor that they are cared for and supported!

The Project Give Thanks box will be refilled on Monday and I will look for my mailbox to be filled with more cards from your creative and generous friends too. We’ll keep the cycle of thankfulness going that way.

Thank you again Michelle and everyone else who is making Project Give Thanks a success. Please subscribe to the blog for a daily reminder of something to give thanks for.

My mouth is watering!! My husband and I are both BBQ lovers. Finding really good BBQ is not easy but the best we’ve ever found is in Memphis… Corky’s restaurant!!!!. We’ve traveled through St. Louis a few times but didn’t know about Pappy’s. Nest time we’re through that area of the country we’ll add Pappy’s to our list of BBQ to try!! TFS!!

On the road again. Poor Russ must be getting pretty good at fending for himself 🙂
Oh oh Sonja’s letter reminded my I wanted to send some cards. Life got busy and I forgot! So I will try to get myself together and make some for the cause.
Have a fun and safe trip. Hugs….

Michelle – I want to thank you again for the awesome classes today! I have never done anything even close to that before, and I learned so much. I hope you get some time to enjoy the St. Charles area a bit before you leave us.

Oh Michelle! Is it time for the St Peter’s, MO class already? I would have loved to sign up for that class since it’s close enough to drive there and back in one day but sadly it’s on our 30th wedding anniversary and I seriously doubt that my DH would have understood if I picked stamping over him! lol! Maybe I can make it to the Lincoln class….never hurts to refresh those brayering skills and your classes are always a guaranteed great time! I’m trying to recruit a couple of friends for Lincoln in November….it would be so much fun!

Michelle,
A friend and I spent this past weekend in St Charles and St. Louis also! We hit 3 casinos, tons of shops in St. Charles, and great restaurants. Lumiere Casino in St. Charles was one of the best I have been to outside of Vegas (and believe me, we have been to MANY)!

Had the best meal at Sweetie Pies in St. Louis! Saw it on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives: http://www.flavortownusa.com/sweetie-pies.aspx

It’s great that you take the time to check out the sights along the way to your brayer classes!
Lynn
