Receipt from an Olive Garden

Olive Garden in Lufkin Texas

Remember that time we went to dinner?
We sat in a booth on a bright hot day,
The summer sun boiling the pavement in the lot,
My receipt arrived in my email.

Those sparse details do not tell the story,
How we laughed about the sea of onions,
Packed into our salad.
We ate our breadsticks with relish,
Enjoying the pleasure of an easy dinner.

Minestrone

My mom loves Minestrone soup.
Personally, I’m not a fan,
But she always supports my love for dessert,
So I cheer her on in her soup delight.

Black Tie Mousse Cake - 9.49

We both loved the thick chocolate frosting,
That just upped the ante,
On an already delicious cake.

Tip 12.11

We both loved Blair.
Such a great attitude and humor.
When the manager did his obligatory check-in,
he made sure to point out that Blair was very cute.
As a former waitress, my praise was more specific,
The easy manner made the meal better.

Amount Paid 53.00

A bargain for an easy bite to eat.
A delight of the light camaraderie,
That I always love from time with my mother.
