Do you see that, Sisters of Mine and Precious Niece? You and your eating together at the KC Andre's yesterday...well, I get to go to the Denver Andre's Saturday. Chocolate almonds, here I come. I know, I know. It's not the original, and not the same, and you all won't be there, and it's a far cry from the Kansas City Plaza, but still! Chocolate Almonds!
I am going to meet College Friend for lunch, then a 50th birthday party for a cousin of the X's (who still consider me family, and since they are wonderful people, it makes me feel just grand!). Rites of passage themselves have become rites of passage. Engagements, marriages, births of children...weddings of said children, births of grandchildren, and 50th birthday parties...what are next? Don't answer that! It was strictly rhetorical.
Soooooo.....that means I will be in Denver from lunch at Cherry Creek to party time (6:30 in Broomfield) by myself, with time on my hands. Whatever shall I do? I heartell there are few things to do in that there rustic ville...
I think I may hit the Tattered Cover first. Then I am thinking some yarn shops. (Any ideas, suggestions, and general hints from those of you who may reside in the area?) Armed with my TomTom, my Outback, and a full tank of gas, I will be on the prowl and no area nor corner of town will be safe!
Yeah...a Swiss confiserie, a book store, and yarn shops.
I am Attila, the Hun.
Hey, definitely let me know the best Denver yarn stores... I'm headed that way in December.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!!!
I don't you can be Attila the Hun. Maybe Yarnilla the Hunny!
ReplyDeleteHope it was as tasty as ours. We had pumpkin glacier!
I have given you an award, but the catch is that you have to come to my blog to collect it!
ReplyDeleteThe Tattered Cover is a book store that I only managed to visit once. I loved it, but never made it back again. Maybe next time I'm in Denver...
Remember that the Tattered Cover is no longer in Cherry Creek. Closest would be on Colfax. Check their website for the exact address. I mostly shop in the south suburbs for yarn, so can't give you too much advice for that, but again, check with knitmap.com for up to date info. I love Cherry Creek and just wandering into the independent stores.
ReplyDeleteI could maybe meet you in person (!) for a little KIP at the Starbucks after your lunch, if you would like.... Just let me know..
ReplyDeleteHope you will have a great time, both shopping and at the party!
ReplyDeleteBecky, I think the shop Lamb Shoppe is in Cherry Creek... google it and see!
