Shopping sisters search for the perfect gift for mom's approaching birthday but delay making a purchase.
Needing fuel for more shopping, we stop at the A & W, a longtime favorite, but only Pawpaw has root beer. Kid lunch still includes a ticket for a cone of soft ice cream, perfect way to end this meal.
With parents returning this evening, we decide on a cool weather dinner of roast with potatoes, carrots, and gravy plus a side dish of squash. The local grocery store provides all the necessities, and soon the oven releases a meaty aroma of our feast.
Parents arrive just when appetites are at a peak and we doubt we can wait much longer. After eating to hearty satisfaction, we top the deliciousness with blueberry peach pie bought at the farmers market, ice cream optional. All is complete and good at the lake cabin.
