You Just Can Not Make This Up
Carrie and I have been together since 1978. I know that’s 40+ years. I have never liked to do laundry. In those very 1st years I was so happy to see that Carrie liked to do laundry. He would also get so excited when he would find money in the dryer!!! Charging into the room and announcing “What I find in the dryer I’m KEEPING!!!” So…. SHUUUU Don’t tell Carrie. For the past 40+ years I have been making sure he will find money in the dryer at least once a month. After all these years he still tells me… “What I find in the dryer I’m KEEPING!!!” Hum… and he is still doing the laundry. I think that’s a win win situation!!!

New Farmers Market
From Facebook…. Years ago our patriarch and matriarch, Judge and Mildred Williams, built an auto mechanic’s shop in East Ybor – “The Bottom”. This thriving business was one of this community’s meeting centers supporting youth and giving back to the community every way possible. Today, 4 generations later, their great-grandson, Walter L. Smith, III, is continuing the business and civic tradition with The Historic East Ybor Farmer’s Market on July 24th. If you want fresh fruits and vegetables, come on out and buy from our vendors! If you want to sell your fruits and vegetables, reserve a station for $50 call 813.531.1845.

Boil Spot & BBQ
Our friends were telling us about Boil & BBQ Korean restaurant on Fowler Ave, near USF. If you were ever “That Kid” who would eat everything out of your soup but not the broth this is the place to you. There are built-in hot plates on the tables here. They bring you your choice of hot soup broth. Then you pick out what you would like in your soup. There is a buffet table with cold items on it. Around the restaurant is a moving conveyor belt with more options. We will be back here and soon. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Boil%20Spot%20&%20BBQ/109456457171350/
