'Il Vicino'

We just returned from an evening meal at MYKONOS Greek Cafe on 5900 Eubank blvd NE in ABQ NM. Greeks seem to know how to cook don't they. We enjoy the Pita with 'Kabobed' chicken and their sauce. I'll try the word, Souvlaki? It is great with a beer or wine.

We took my wifes Mom with us. She is 94 years old and still drives well during daylight hours. Her sister is almost 103 and lives in West Texas. She no longer drives the tractor. Now maybe a mule or two at plowin' but no tractors for her...Ha! That country livin' and food must bring longevity.

The day was a regular with two or three mile walks. It's less boring when I bounce a tennis ball down the street At 5:30 AM. I like the sound of it..Neighbors sleeping ,..Whadda Ya Thank?

Another little Cafe we like is IL VICINO at 11225 Montgomery NE ABQ NM. The name gives it away as Italian. Bubba still throws and spins the pizza high in the air during his 'Bubba Show'. The 'Big Lion' Oven has a large open mouth with the wood fire inside. Nice place in the winter months for comfort food. Summer time the patio is great. Wine and Brews are special as well. I missed seeing any actors there this week.

Food takes up this blog tonight. tomorrow brings another story from the 'Mile High' plus city of ABQ NM. Ya'al Come Back Now, Ya Heaa!
