Pie Fixes Everthing

After the snow storm the pie pals were ready to get out of town.  We had a field trip planned for Friday, and surely by then we would be able to leave town.  By Thursday I do not think another 15 inches of snow could have stopped us.  We were busting out. 
It was Jodi's turn and she says she doesn't bake pie so she would drive. 
We got to a Starbucks in Skagit and she brings out the cutest, tastiest pies ever.  Little heart shaped pies in wax paper bags with Valentine embellishments. She does bake!
Jodi and Shelly ran into Starbucks to get coffee, Becky decided to dash in and use the facilities, Holly and I are in the car and we see Becky come running out of Starbucks and jump into the wrong car. There was a woman in the passenger seat who looked quite frightened.  I could not stop laughing at her reaction, and at Becky's reaction. I am laughing with tears running down my cheeks as I write this story.  It all happened so fast.

I guess you had to be there.

Anywhoo, those pies were delicious!
We had a great time shopping in Arlington.  They have a hardware store in Arlington that is fantastic. And other antique and gift shops in their downtown.

We found our motto.


 We did a little junkin' and I love the television in the window of this shop for the '47 Curtis Wright.
We had planned to go to the Stilly Diner but they were closed so we tried a new place in town, Kafe Neo Woodstone Taverna.  Everyone raved about their food and drinks. We want to go back so we can have lunch at the Stilly and at the bowling alley.  More trips to Arlington, yes please!
Jodi found her recipe for the pies on Pinterest.  They make a sweet Valentine treat.

There was a lot of post storm therapy, shopping for diamonds and guns and some junkin'.

Pie fixes everything but the pie pals sure help too.  Oh, and diamonds.  Diamonds help everything.

Those pies are adorable! That is very funny about your friend jumping into the wrong car. We have had vehicles that are popular with many people at certain times and have walked up to the wrong one in a parking lot. Thankfully, we never scared anyone into thinking it was a carjacking! -Jenn
