Rain-bo Island

New restaurant number 19 for 2018. I found this place through a post in Facebook on the 321 Flavor group. This group is run by the food critics at Florida Today, the local newspaper. Discussion on places to dine. Someone asked about poke bowls and this was recommended. It is located on Airport Blvd just off 192. Here are the menus from the FaceBook page they have.

Drinks, including my favorite, boba...


Bowl menu...



It is an order at the counter type place, and they do have a few tables but very small. I got mine to go to enjoy at home. Here is a photo of my salad and drink...



I got the regular bowl which comes with two scoops. My base was brown rice. My protein was one scoop of spicy tuna and one scoop of spicy salmon. My sauce was yum-yum sauce. My four toppings were ginger, cucumber, pineapple, and seaweed salad. She made to-order the spicy tuna and salmon together by adding the hot sauce to the raw fish. I had her add some chives and sesame seed as she mixed it,



My drink was the passion fruit green tea with boba added. I should have got it with no ice since they got in the way while sucking up the boba through the straw.

Everything was good and the people were very nice. They have been open since April. I give the place a 2.0 (Good) and I know I will go back for the teas with boba. The bowl was okay  but I may get it with salad instead of the rice. I will admit, sometimes good is good enough! Happy eating.

Photo Memory - BJ with others

Image
As I continue to scan in all the photos I have collected over the years, I have continually modified the way I am trying to organize the photos. I have created groups by individuals, and of course central to that are photos of me. I have shared some of the single photos of me on Facebook, and I would like to share here a few of photos of me with others. The first photo is me, not even four months old, being held by my Grandmother, Helen Rheaume Shackett. I know the photo was taking at our Weybridge Street house in Middlebury by the banister behind us. The stairs are steep in the Provoncha house, and many a drunk fell down those stairs into the cactus my mom kept at the bottom. Tom moved the bathroom from the second floor to the first when he purchased the house, so now only those spending the night get to go up those stairs. BJ with Grandma Shackett The next photo is when I turned one in the summer of 1958. I lived at the Weybridge St house all my life through high school. I am

"All You Need Is Love"

Weddings! All you need is Love !  The other night I had a weird dream about attending a wedding. When I woke, I started thinking about the weddings I have attended in my life. I was not sure if I could remember them all. I know the list is long and I decided to al least get a record of the ones I have pictures from. Sometimes I was just an onlooker, and there were times I was lucky to be part of the wedding party. In actuality, I always participate in the wedding party! Here are some wedding photos from my archive. Family I did not attend this wedding. It was November 24 in 1946, my mom Stella united with my dad Harold at Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Middlebury Vermont. Although I was not there in body, you could say my whole future depended upon this moment. My oldest sister Patsy got married out West and none of the family attended. Pat and Brent ended up moving to Hawaii where my niece Lori was born. Tom married Robin, but it was a very small gathering. Just after I graduated

"I Am the Walrus"

 I use to be a Tiger and now I am the Walrus . Just recently I found out that my friend Randy Quesnel had passed away. Although it happened back in March, I just found out on Facebook. I had not kept in touch with Randy but I did have some fond memories of him. One connection we had was playing football together at MUHS. My Senior year, Randy was a Junior. I knew I had a photo of him but all I could find was this scan from the Addison Independent. Tigers of the Week ! This was 1974, 50 years ago. That is Randy on the left, and my classmate Bob Shaw on the right. Randy played fullback but he also spent time as defensive end. I was the defensive halfback on the same side of the field and Coach Wagner had a verbal call for me to let the DE know I was rushing and the DE had to contain. Whenever I made the call, Randy would give me a look, he liked to rush the backfield and I was messing him up. Of course, he knows the call was from either Hubie or Coach Chuck Martin or Coach K. But he was
