Monday Murals - Raleigh
click on photos to enlarge
Corner of W. Martin & McDowell . Raleigh . NC
In my extensive Googling quest this morning I have concluded that this is the work of one Taylor White. That's about all I can come up with. I found her website HERE ...she's done quite a bit of stuff in Australia I see...but this cool mural is all stealth like, nothing comes up. I did Google Earth it and you can see the building it is on HERE and that was taken in 2012, no mural...Google Earth is pretty fun to play with. I was able to back track because right up the street on W. Martin is Berkeley Cafe which is a pretty cool little joint we hung out at for a while. Great food too! We had a turkey sandwich with applebutter...I didn't even know those 2 things went together but it was so dang good!

Willy Nilly Friday 5 No. 49
click on photo to enlarge
Greenfield in Botetourt...Just up the trail a bit from the bee sanctuary I posted yesterday. Up on the hill across the way sits a few old slave cabins. I've shown you them before. This is such a pretty area!
Willy Nilly time:
1) Made this yummy Fried Ice Cream for Father's Day. It was so good! We didn't top it with chocolate syrup, honey or whipped cream, just ate it plain and I don't think it could have been any better!
2) Also tried this Cilantro Lime Chicken Fajita Salad for dinner one night last week...also totes delish! A definite keeper and great summer dinner!
3) Photographer Mashes Photos Together For Hilarious Results
4) 10 Dogs Who Think They're People
5)
An amazing old tree in Raleigh, NC

Rubbish Tuesday - Raleigh Furniture Company
click on photo to enlarge
Raleigh Furniture Co circa 1914
We were racing by trying to get to the parking meter before our time was up but I had to stop and catch a quick snap of this cool old door mat. I found THIS interesting info on the building.
Linking with Roan's Rubbish Tuesday ...a meme for cool old things!

Monday Murals - Moore Square - Raleigh, NC

Located on Blount Street . Moore Square . Raleigh . NC
And that's all I know about that.....but it makes me think of "butterflies are free to fly...fly away....."
I remember walking to the 7/11 around the corner from my grandparent's house and buying the 45 of this as a kid...yes, they sold 45's at 7/11 back then!

Have a great Monday!

A lesson in Mexican food kind of Willy Nilly
1) This is why we went to Raleigh. Nick had to go to Greensboro recently. Whenever we know we are heading somewhere different, I Google "San Diego Taco Shop" in whatever area we are heading....most don't pan out...most "think" they serve "San Diego Taco Shop" food....but honestly....NO....until this one....gave Nick the location and told him to try it out while down there....he made his way over, not with a lot of hope, UNTIL....he walked in and the AROMAS gave him hope....the menu...full of stuff we love....he ordered...he tasted...he texted me...."Oh my God, this is it!"....
2) If you happen to know anyone who is a SoCal native, then you know we love our Mexican Food....taco shop Mex food...we are quite obnoxious about it and will tell you all other Mexican food sucks...sorry, but it is true...
3) The people who own this place are actually from San Diego, Chula Vista to be exact so you know they know what they are doing.
4) This is what you must order when you go...Carne Asada Burrito, try the rolled tacos but ask for the white cheese instead of cheddar...next time I want to stay the night in Raleigh and go there for breakfast and try their Machaca burritos...Nick tried their beef burrito and I am positive their Machaco would be perfect!
5) One complaint....I don't know why they don't know how to make hot sauce...they have 4 salsas but SoCal taco shops are known for their hot sauce...luckily I found THIS RECIPE a couple of years back and keep some made up in the fridge...goes great with the food we bring home from there!
Now it is your turn...post 5 randoms...link up and visit others! Have fun and Happy Friday!!
