Lunch with a friend is the best!

Yesterday I met a friend for lunch.  We email, text or talk everyday, but our schedules have been of late that we hadn't had a face to face in awhile.
Therefore our lunch ran into some peoples dinner time. ( well, if those people are over 65)  One of the boys that works at the restaurant actually got out the mop and starting mopping around us.  We asked if it was okay to stay and they said yes, so we did!
Don't you just love friends like that, where you could go on talking forever...

My friend took the picture today, so I didn't have to fight with my tripod.  I know that the tripod and I will have to become friends at some point, but not today!

I didn't choose to wear a lot of accessories today because of the built in "necklace" already on the shirt.  I also didn't want to compete with the plaid boot and stripped shirt.  I know you might be thinking,plaid and stripe together? What was she thinking!!  I think this works because  they are not really anywhere close to each other.  Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
