I’m going to come clean right at the beginning of this post. I really enjoyed Smoqued BBQ, the newest in Old Towne Orange tastiness. I went last night with the family to give it a try and we were impressed. We had been to Beach Pit several times and while we weren’t huge fans, we still enjoyed it when we were in the mood. Well, last night we were in the mood for BBQ and Smoqued delivered.
It’s no secret that one of my favorite things to do is to spend a relaxing afternoon strolling through the Orange historic district. As I make my way around the circle, a “must stop” always includes Country Roads, where the merchandise selection never fails to inspire. Today was no different. My intent was not to find the next treasure to feature in the latest Antique Addict blog. But that’s exactly what happened!
I was hanging out at my house on Saturday, when my neighbor gave me a call to tell me that she was eating the most delicious shaved ice and was sending the truck on down to my house. Luckily we were just finishing up dinner, so the kids and I headed out front to wait. Before we saw the truck turn the corner, we could hear it playing some Hawaiian tunes, nice and loud. As it made its way to our house, it was of course mobbed, so we waited a little longer, but it was fun to watch and listen…it was like a party going on in our neighborhood!
