Yes I call it a “Saturdate” (Saturday date). My husband works in retail and rarely gets a Saturday off. It makes me sad sometimes but then sometimes I enjoy the day to myself to do whatever I want to do to keep busy. Most of the time I will just go to the nail salon and grocery store. Sometimes I will hit the thrift or craft stores.
Well, He was off on Saturday a few weeks ago. I told him we can do whatever he wanted to do this day. If he wanted to lay on the couch and watch tv, we would do it. If he wanted to go climb a mountain, we’d do it.
We woke up early and he said “Would you like to go out to breakfast?” Heck yea. I love going out to breakfast. We decided to eat at Eggs Up Grill. It was delicious. He got grits, bacon and a gravy biscuit. I got the red, white and blue Waffle.
After breakfast we headed down to South Carolina to check out Windy Hill Orchard and Cidery. We heard it was a cute little place to visit in the Fall while you sip some fresh cider. It was after the Fall when we visited so it was cold.
We didn’t stay long, but we stayed long enough to watch them make fresh doughnuts and sampled some of their ciders while we stood around the campfire they had burning.
I enjoyed the ride through the country as much as liked the destination. We plan to revisit when it gets warmer. We left with some doughnuts and a bottle of cider
I’m not a big fan of cider but I will sip it warm sometimes. Great for colds and sore throats too.
Afterwards we still had time to lay around the house and watch some TV before dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant. Needless to say, we never climbed a mountain.
