Saying Goodbye to My Best Friend, Christie

On Friday the 13th, I enjoyed a relaxing and fun day with my Best Friend Christie. This was my last chance to see her before we head out to Ecuador. We had a wonderful lunch at the Front Porch and Pie Shop, in Dunnellon, FL. We each enjoyed a Bacon & Cheddar Cheese Burger (cooked medium), we both had Fries, and as a side I picked a Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing and Christie selected Cole Slaw. To drink we both enjoyed a refreshing and taste Coca-Cola. You can't eat here without ordering the pie. Christie tried the Pecan Pie and I tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie. OMGosh do they make the most amazing and out of this world yummy food.

Many months ago, I read the Fifty Shades of Grey book series. I have been wanting to see the movie since it was released back on Valentines Day. Now with all the crazy planning for the move I haven't had a chance to fit it into my day or night.

However, today was the perfect day to see the movie. Christie had seen the movie the day it was release and was good with seeing it again.

We caught the 4:15pm showing in Crystal River, FL. This was my first time visiting this theater and my first time inside our local mall. I have to say that the roof of the mall looks just like the old Florida Festival near Sea World in Orlando, FL.

We enjoyed a little popcorn and soda during the movie. We both enjoyed the movie and hope they continue making the remaining books into movies. After the movie, we headed back to the house so Dan and I could load Christie up with all kinds of stuff that we are not taking with us on the move. It was unbelievable hard to say goodbye to my Best Friend. I know it's not a forever goodbye. However, it is still difficult. Christie, Dan and I Love You and Are Going to Really Miss You. You will always be My Best Friend and Sister. <3

Whenever Heather and I get together, it is as if time has not passed. This is much like how our friendship started. We hit it off within minutes of my arrival into our shared work environment. Even knowing that she is moving to Cuenca, I have no doubt that the next time I see her (hopefully very soon) that it will be like she is living across town. Heather, you have always made me feel like family. Candy and Dan have also. I am really looking forward to visiting you guys. I will miss you terribly but am really enjoying seeing life through your eyes on this blog. Keep it up! Love you!

The Bowen Knot - Shamrock Rating System

One Shamrock: This indicates the worst service possible. If awarded, it means we would never EVER use the service again. If it was a food establishment the food was barely editable. This means a complete fail with little to no redeeming features. We will never go there ever again.

Two Shamrocks: This is a service that we might consider using again to give it a second chance. But, the experience that we had would normally cause us to award one shamrock if not for some key redeeming features. If it was a food establishment the food was okay, but still sub-par. We didn't like the food. Serious room for improvement exists.

Three Shamrocks: Normal middle of the road service. We might have had some bad or some good but they were offset somewhat. This is service we would use again but we will look for a better provider. If it was a food establishment the food was good. We like it and will return. There might be room for things to get better but it is still a decent meal.

Four Shamrocks: Great service. This is a definitive repeat for us. We like a lot about the service and recommend it. If it was a food establishment the food was excellent. We liked it a lot. We like the place enough to return frequently. There are very few detractors.

Five Shamrocks: Outstanding service. This is service that treats us above and beyond what we think we deserve. We consider this what we would want to find all the time and what we hope all service providers would want to obtain. If it was a food establishment the food was perfect. No issues whatsoever. We loved it and would eat there everyday.
