Florida's Kitchen

Today we became residence of Texas.  We had to get the car inspected at Kwik Kar, then get it registered.  Last we had to get our new driver's license.  That took about 2 hours in all, which wasn't as long as we feared.

Then we went out to Rainbow's End.  Rainbow's End is the Escapee's Headquarters.  This is the organization that is forwarding our mail.  It has a nice campgroup outside of Livingston and it has a care center, for RV'ers who need to be off the road for awhile, or who have retired for health reasons.

We were excited to get some mail, that will enable us to purchase our motorhome.  We thought it wouldn't come for another week or so, so getting it today was a real blessing.  It has changed our plans a little, as we were going to waste some time in southern Texas, in San Antonio until it arrived, but now....we are revamping plans.

Yesterday, I told you about Florida's Kitchen.  Well, we found it tonight.  It was worth the hunt.  Bob and I had ribs, which were wonderful.  The sauce was too good for a noncook like me to describe.  With our ribs we had potato salad and baked beans.  (They also came with white bread, onions, and pickles.)  We didn't know why, but the waitress said some people like to make sandwiches.  For dessert I had German Chocolate Cake and Bob had coconut cream pie with meringue.  We  had a choice of pecan pie, buttermilk pie, sweet potato pie, carrot cake, Italian cream cake, and more that I can't remember.  Florida's is not a place that looks inviting from the outside.

The parking lot was full and the people just kept coming through the door.  If you are ever in Livingston, Texas, this is the place to eat.  They also have catfish, but Bob nor I was brave enough to try catfish.  Maybe Sunday, when we hit Shrimp Boat Manny's for Father's Day.
