Datz Deli and Lemon Scented Pancakes

Ok, so Tony has been telling me for a couple of months to try Datz Deli in S. Tampa (MacDill Ave to be exact). I am not eating breads right now because I'm allergic to yeast so I haven't been all that eager to go to a sandwich shop. Well, it is so much more than a sandwich shop! They serve brunch too. I had the "lettuce entertain you" salad with smoked turkey, gouda, strawberries, blueberries and sugared walnuts with a berry vinagrette. Wow! This salad could have fed 4 people! It was yummy and pretty too. Tony got Lemon Scented pancakes and they were totally yummy too.
I highly recommend this place! They had a very large selection of beers (banana bread beer, blueberry beer and some other very interesting brews). The bakery looked awesome too. They had cakes the size of a sink! Something called "Lady Baltimore" looked like a fantasy cake with layers of white cake and a torched meringue frosting.

Here is a link to a recipe I found that might be something like those pancakes (I haven't tried it yet and will report...I doubt if it can be as good as Datz!)

Just went on a lovely vacation to the Beach. We really enjoyed the down time with the kids and got some sun. Clearwater beach is so neat at sunset. They do a craft fair on the pier every night at sunset and there are entertainers there as well. Sophia and Michael loved the bucket drummer.
I hope to add some pictures in the next couple of days.

Here is are some oldies but goodies! M2M Gap Treehouse and Chasing Rainbows.

Sophia's Birthday Cake!

Well, I'm a tad sad that my "baby" turned two! It's been over a month and I have really been avoiding the facts....its done....she's two...she's officially a toddler and not a baby and I'm not ready to realize that!

Anyways, she looked adorable in her Foofa custom dress that Gwen made ( http://www.withcherriesontop.etsy.com/) and her Foofa bows. Her party was Yo Gabba Gabba and it was a nice party for a two year old.

I'm so proud of the lovely little girl my Sophia is becoming! She is the sweetest most loving baby girl (there I go again with the baby...). Her favorite thing now is singing "twinkle twinkle little star" all day long.

Custom orders!
