I went to visit my friend Karen Schneider today. She moved out to south Gilbert, and had a beautiful view of the San Tan Mountain.
She moved from a beautiful T.W. Lewis home here in Chandler to another T.W. Lewis home in Gilbert. This one is smaller, but Karen wanted to downsize.
Honestly, I felt like I was in a model home, except for this little bit of family history.

mother and grandmother and their china.
The kitchen is huge and I am afraid the pictures I have
don't let you see how beautiful it is.
A huge island in the middle of the kitchen.
Family room which a huge window looking
outside onto the backyard.

From the gazebo they have a nice view of the
Santan Mountain.
Firepit
A beautifully landscaped backyard that pretty
much takes care of itself.
For lunch we went to this local favorite of Karen and Lance's:
We both had the chicken apple
walnut salad. For my side I had the soup of the day, which was
white chicken chili. The real hit of the day for us was Karen's side:
The three cheese veggie flatbread with basil pesto, and mozzarella cheese topped with sautéed asparagus, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, spinach, roasted tomatoes and Havarti dill cheese, finished with Parmesan cheese. Karen shared some with me and it was so delicious!
After lunch Karen showed me around one of the local home accessory boutiques before I took her back home. I had such a great time!
This afternoon and evening it was back to paying bills and helping James with taxes.
