Snow fun and breaking the fast
Well, it snowed in Sanford! I’m glad I got to experience it. My dog loved it and went crazy running around in it and it’s been neat to see the houses and trees around here covered in it. And in covering snow-palooza for the Herald, I had fun talking to people who called the snowstorm a “once-in-a-lifetime event.” It’s been an interesting look into how another part of the country deals with winter weather.
But while I waited in anticipation Friday afternoon and it was exciting to see, I was ready for the snow to clear out by Saturday. This kind of weather is exactly what I got sick of in Illinois. And hearing we might see more of it this weekend is depressing. I’m hoping 60 degrees make its return and fast. My boyfriend John is visiting for several days and I’d love for him to experience sunny and warm days in February… hoping Sanford has seen its last snowstorm of the season.

A few friends and I have been meeting Tuesday mornings for breakfast. It’s something I really look forward to each week because I love the company and I’m a fan of any and all breakfast food. We ate at the Dairybar for a couple weeks and Mrs. Wenger’s last week. Today we had breakfast at the Landmark in Jonesboro.
I think my favorite place so far has been the Dairybar, because I really like the pecan waffle and hash browns I’ve gotten there. Mrs. Wenger’s had good sausage and the Landmark had sugary, thick french toast. But something about the Dairybar sticks with me, and I really enjoyed the food. Simple but delicious.
Know of any other breakfast places I should check out?
Not much tops The Dairy Bar for breakfast! But – Angie’s Breakfast Barn on North Horner is a very close second and you can get breakfast in the morning or for lunch, too! They aren’t open on Sunday’s, though. To get there, take Horner going north headed out of town – go under the US 1 overpass – Angie’s is in a small strip of shops right after Burger King on the left.
But, my favorite for a really special breakfast is Cafe 121 on Sat and Sun — Chef Hamm has a great brunch from 11:00-2:00! His banana walnut pancakes and stuffed french toast are amazing!!! And that’s not all…..
Have fun exploring all the great places Sanford has to offer!
