Wanna know what works for me? 

My Vespa!

Two years ago, Tim bought me one of the best ever gifts for Valentine’s Day…A Vespa scooter!  To say I love it would be an understatement!  We live in a small town and this is the perfect way to get around!  It gets me wherever I want to go and into the closest parking spots imaginable!  Not to mention that I look really cute driving it!  That’s a plus for sure!

Easy to Park! 

The first photo is my scooter hanging out with the rest of the bikes!  I know, it doesn’t sound like they do, but I still get to park in front…thank you very much!!!  

Last weekend there was a wonderful craft show in town and the streets were crowded with no parking in sight.  Well, that doesn’t include scooters!  We pulled right up behind one of the tents in a safe little spot just right for us!  We did a little shopping, a little eating, found some cute little palm tree earrings, and off we went! 

Great on Gas!

We noticed the tank was almost empty so we stopped to fill it up!  This is where the budget minded person in me is thrilled beyond belief!  Guess how much it took to fill it up?  Go on, guess! 

  Oh, you can’t see it…here you go…

    

That’s right!  How’s that for being green and using less fossil fuels??? 

I can go about 100 miles with this tank of gas!  

Then we took our savings on over to get a little something to eat!

There’s a great little pub where we can park on the sidewalk next to the swinging tables!  I love that!  

 

 This is The Celtic Ray.  They have wonderful Bangers & Mash, Fish & Chips, Bread Pudding, and other tasty dishes!

I have a great recipe for Bangers & Mash on our Tasty Tuesday Blog Party post.  Check it out and maybe you can join us for a little fun next week.  It doesn’t have to be a recipe, just something to do with food!  That’s easy enough, right?

Hop on over to Rocks In My Dryer for more Works-For-Me-Wednesday!

Comes in Great Colors!!!

Oh, here’s the Vespa website just in case you want to drop a little hint for your husband this Valentine’s Day!  I think you should go with the whole “It will save us money!” argument!
