Art Museum, Sushi, and Mandola’s
Meg and I headed out to St. Pete to check out the art museum, and then we got sushi at a restaurant called Lemongrass, and then we went shopping and had dinner at Mandola’s. It was a very cold day so we huddled in our Comfy wearable blankets after!

Meghan’s birthday present
I was gonna wait and surprise her on her birthday but as soon as she said her feet were cold and she wished she’d brought her slippers, I knew I had to give her her birthday gift early. Warm Meg!
