The Iron And The Candy


First things first...


Now onto the anniversary-ing. Six years here. Candy is a theme. Iron is a them. Double theme. Not sure why but we ain't arguing. So we went to Callie's Candy Kitchen and everyone filled their pockets with delicious treats. 



Yuula got some gummi bears and a Hello Kitty lolli, Laura got chocolate covered peanut butter filled pretzels and I, coconut clusters. Then we got this emblematic #6 made of milk chocolate, and some chocolate covered sunflower seeds which are magically delicious.

After some antiquing in the drizzle we hit up Van Gilder's Jubilee for some lunch.


Laura of course got a steak sandwich


I, a nice chipolte baja grinder


and this was all that was left of Yuula's quesadilla.


As a bonus we got to play some photo hunt, which we are now terrible at, and I saw some of the Mets game at the bar. 

Check out our iron finds from the day (note, all items are not in fact iron)...


 a little wrought iron for garden decorating


a bootscrape to maximize futile efforts


The thing on the left was listed as a kitchen utensil, but we're not really sure what all those nuggets do. I think there's a bottle opener in there and maybe a grip to tenderize your meats, but I dunno. And a frog.


Not thematic. I just wanted one to hang fruits from.


And some cast iron skillets so we can eat fajitas like a boss.


Okay. Six years. This is the itchy one coming up. We'll see how it goes. But the theme for seven is wool and copper, so that sounds worth it.
