Niece Patty and I left Minneapolis at 7:45 on Friday morning for the 600
mile drive to Rapid City to attend my niece's funeral on Sunday
afternoon. We arrived in Rapid City on Friday afternoon and had
take-out Chinese with my nephew's family -- moo-shu pork, egg rolls,
potstickers, hot & sour soup, curry chicken, fried rice, white rice,
kung pao chicken and something else. Plenty of leftovers.
We had lunch today at Tally's in downtown Rapid, a half block away from
my brother's jewelry store. Steak sandwich and hash browns. Not bad,
though the steak wasn't especially tender. The banana cream pie was
good - it had a meringue topping. Nephew picked up the check without
our knowledge. I told him later that if I'd known he was buying I'd
have ordered something else. He said that's why he didn't tell me his
plan. I come from a long line of wiseasses.
We were going to go to Mount Rushmore to see the guys but spent too much
time in the jewelry store. We went to Prairie Edge store instead.
Google it if you want to know what it's about. Beautiful things made by
Native artists and craftspeople.
We collected my grandniece and brought her to my nephew's, where we're
staying, for a wonderful spaghetti supper. I should be in bed now
instead of posting. They think I'm weird because of my food pictures.
We had rollicking conversation about tomorrow's Dead Spread -- I
mentioned my concern about pressed turkey sandwiches and potato chips to
my grand-nephews and they said there'll be a jazz band and great food.
Connie's going out in style. Stay tuned. "-)
