Day 2 of our Spring Break Stay-cation went much better. (Day 1 had a blizzard & 10 hour blackout!) We popped on by Joslyn to see the full display collection. We came when the museum reopened with the new addition this last Autumn, but had only toured the new wing & updated sculpture garden

Billy's Café You know I love a Brunch. But as my commitment to spending less & supporting local has required a change in where we go. I drive by this place all the time & it is packed on the weekends. And after eating here, I can understand why. This is a "greasy spoon" typ

Last Saturday we had dinner at Mexitli. It's always so good. Agua Fresca, Enchiladas, & Floutas this time. And they have those good good potato floutas! If you haven't eaten here yet - then you are not taking your Latin food consumption seriously. #omahanebraska #mexicanfood
