Dishing with Mark n Carrie… Interesting – Flying Palace
Flying Palace
A year ago, we were at a cocktail party. Here we met a very interesting contractor from Ocala, FL. He was telling us about the “Flying Palaces” that land at the private airport he was working at. These private planes come from around the world, with many for the Middle East. They pass customs very fast. Have very large armed security. It was interesting that they mostly only spoke 2 languages, Arabic and Spanish. After trumps flying palace gift, we did some more research on this. The private landing strip is called “Jumbolair Aviation & Equestrian Estates” It is also the largest, licensed, private runway in North America, at 7,550 ft x 200 ft. John Travolta lives and lands his Boeing 707 here. Maybe the larger Flying Palaces also land here?

Nonnas, Grandma, Mica, Yaya, GG
No mater what you call her… we all loved her cooking! There is a fun film on Netflix called “Nonnas” This week I was cooking my Grandma’s stuffed cabbage rolls for Carrie. No matter how hard I try they are never just like hers. Maybe it’s because I use premade sauce. LMAO More likely it’s because of the love she put into her cooking. Treat yourself to this film which is based on a true story.
