Colm and I had to run some stuff down to my dad’s office today. So we did that and we stayed for a while and chatted with my step-mom. It was a little past lunchtime at that point and both Colm and I were getting pretty hungry. There is a restaurant down near the office that I have not been to since I was probably in high school or college during my vegetarian days. Back then it was a tiny hole in the wall where you just might bump elbows with the person sitting at the next table it was so cramped. I wasn’t sure what Colm would eat, but we were in the neighborhood and I was hungry, so we went. You can tell that they don’t have a lot of children pass through their doors. The hostess looked at me as if I might be lost when we walked in and the waitress wasn’t quite sure what to do with us. You could tell Colm’s presence was throwing them off a bit. I asked to see a menu before we sat down to make sure there was something Colm would eat and to my delight there were a couple of things he could choose from. I am so glad we went. I had the tastiest lunch and now I know we can go back with the kids….whether they want us to or not.
