Liliana and I got to sleep in before getting ready. We stopped and had breakfast at Tim Horton’s. They give out such good coupon deals so the meal was fairly cheap.

We stopped by Daniel’s hospital to drop off his food and coffee before heading out for our day.

As promised we started at Chateau Christine’s to check out her 80% deals. We got such great goodies!

This Vera Bradley backpack was 50% off! Liliana saw it and had to get it and I fell in love with it as well especially since my work backpack I brought with me was falling apart at the seams. I went online to see if they had more since they were out of stock at the store.

As we left the place and was driving to our next destination, Lily surprised me with the backpack. My heart … I feel so loved. Thank you, Lily!! I love it a million and cannot wait to use it for the first time in Ohio! This backpack is huge and cute and waterproof!! I also love that it isn’t a crazy pattern like usual Vera Bradley things.

We stopped by Conneaut Cellars Winery. Doesn’t Lily look adorable with her new umbrella? They’ve won so many medals throughout the years. It was pretty overwhelming.

They give out six complementary samples per person and you get to pick any six on their list. If you wanted the fancier ones you had to pay $2 for the first and $1 for every one after that. It was worth it to get the whole experience. If you buy one of those special bottles they waive the fee which was pretty cool. We just ended up buying the Merlot instead and called it a day.

A late lunch at Pineapple Eddie’s Southern Bistro was a big hit! We loved everything we tried. I’m not a fan of cornbread and I was in love mostly because it wasn’t dry. This place is a must try. Don’t miss out! P.S. It seems to be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

We walked for hours at The Shops at the Colony. They had many little shops with cute things. I will say that I’m surprised I haven’t bought as much as I thought I would this trip but it’s probably to early to tell.

One of my favourite purchase is from The Original Popcorn House. Lily bought three bags and I bought two and I’m excited to take it with us on the ride to Ohio. Good road trip snack.

We went back to the house to drop our stuff off before heading to Wal-Mart for groceries. Liliana made a go at the crane game and actually won something for Daniel!

I volunteered to make dinner and we were having a guest over, Stephen, one of Daniel’s coworkers. I’m already a nervous wreck when I cook for others because I’m afraid they’ll hate it so having a whole new stranger try my cooking was nerve-wracking.

I was surprised but everyone loved it! And even said that they can’t ever go back to Taco Bell anymore. I’m sure they were joking but it made me feel better. Daniel was nice enough to assist with the dessert since I’m not good at using their stove. I was the head chef giving orders as he executed them. I’m happy with how everything came out.

Once I’m back home, I’ll give the recipe for the crunchwrap. Oh, and did I mention Jack Daniel’s has their own Jack and Coke bottled? How crazy … Crazy cool!

We headed to Voodoo Brewery since it’s been on my list. Stephen had already dranked part of his drink so he wasn’t allowed to put it into the picture. They had mostly IPAs but it wasn’t too bad.

They decided they wanted a bucket drink so we went through then Biker Festival crowd. There was a live band playing a lot of 90s music. I had fun twirling on the street in the nice weather.

The three got their bucket drinks from Chestnut Street Pub and Grill. I was done with sugar so I didn’t want my own. I did take a sip of Lily’s and it reminded me of a Skittle. Very delicious but I was also very full to put anything else in my belly.

This morning when we took food to Daniel at the hospital he took our pictures. Then he took another one later at night. Can you spot the similarities and difference between us?

We both have matching bow hair clips that we got from the railroad visit yesterday. It’s made out of wood and we just HAD to have them. We also didn’t know we’d both be wearing blue and white dresses and loved that we somewhat matched. Lily is also wearing her new pineapple shoes in the picture on the right so she fully matched to my blue shoes and our outfits were complete.

We hung out on the street while they chugged their drinks. Then we walked to Tops, a grocery store, so that I could buy lotto tickets. Stephen got Grumpy Cat ones and ended up winning $15 on the $4 he spent on the cards. Daniel and Lily spent money on the crane but didn’t end up winning. I’m saving my tickets for the ride tomorrow.

I had to call it a day since I was getting tired and we have a busy day tomorrow. Eeek! I cannot wait!!
