What a fun list, Lorie! Thanks for collecting and posting it.

Oh, boy, what I wouldn't give to step back about three years to the last time I enjoyed tea at Hanford's Irwin St. Inn.

You are very welcome-glad you enjoyed it. I still live around here and have never gone there-I will have to try it.

Great list! I'd sent you mine ages ago, but I guess I fell off the deep end... Still, as the season for iced rolls 'round, you can find me slurping up my large iced/skim at the 1369. And just for fun:
