Hifalutin

Hifalutin is where we ate after an uneventful day doing chemo in Tucson. All of last week was fairly good except for the fatigue. My white cell count was down, which was expected, but that is what chemo is all about~killing cells and hoping that more cancer cells are killed than good ones!

Since I had an early afternoon appointment at the Arizona Cancer Center, we arrived at the Hifalutin about 3pm. Never been there before, but wouldn't you be curious of a restaurant with a name like that? The country music was playing as we entered. Our table was beside an old saddle as part of the decor~a real western eater., Our server even wore a cowboy hat! The sandwiches were monster sized, and we were certain we'd be sick if we ate the whole thing. But they were so good we left hardly a thing. We'll definitely chalk up Hifalutin for a return visit.

While continuing our drive back to Mesa, we looked for the "desert" cows that greeted us last week. However, the only wildlife we saw were several birds and one lone chipmunk running for the other side of the road before it became roadkill. He made it, and I'm sure he had an exciting story to share with his family that night.

Have a good week, and we'll try and do the same.

  1. Ahah. . . those 'desert cows' really were a mirage after all!!! LOL Thanks for sharing the updates and the adventures that go with! Harry and I are painting the house this week and we think we have been seeing some 'desert cows' after we inhale enough of the paint fumes. . . !!
