Wendell's working place held a retirement luncheon for him a few days ago at the Five Star International Buffet. It was nice getting together with some of Wendell's coworkers. Thanks for inviting me and Landon, Ross!!
The food was yummy, but I hardly took any pictures of um. You can check out food photos here from the last time me and Wendell went there.

Congratulations on wendall so retirement...can't wait to see what he cooks up !

Thanks Akemi. I think you would like the restaurant. Lots of variety.
Thanks Kat!
N, he worked for the City for 24 years. Thanks for the info on Wally's Farm. I wanna try and go this Saturday, but I no more egg carton containers.
Anon, he made salmon patties for dinner tonight! Sooo ono!
Congrats to the hubby! Now you have a full time chef. My coworker's hubby retired recently and he fixes my friends lunch every day. I am so jealous! Me too, can't wait to see what he cooks as a retiree...lol
J: great info on the buffet, I now know where to take mom for dinner cuz it's Japanese style food she likes but unlike most Japanese restaurants whose portions are too small for me, this one I can get full!
As for da eggs, just wrap up in paper towels you can re-use latahz or old towels or t-shirts. Best Wishes -N
So nice your coworker's husband, Susan!
Hmmm, N . . . maybe I'll use your towel suggestion.
Congrats to your husband on his retirement, I can't wait to see what delicious dishes he creates next.
Since some of your readers expressed interest in going to Five Star Buffett, I regret to tell everyone that Five Star closed very abruptly. Last day of business was April 30 so that was a close call for your husband's luncheon.
OMG, Anon, I just told Wendell. He's so disappointed. But good thing he at least got to eat there one last time.
I missed this somehow. Happy retirement Wendell!!! I Jellos.
Did Wendell work at the City? I recognize a lady in the picture (Karen) that works for the city. Happy retirement to Wendell. Now he can wake up late. My dad has been retired for years now, but still wake up 2-3 in the morning just to buy coffee and newspaper.
He did work for the City, Mmiissee! And he worked closely with Karen! Your dad wakes up so early! Wendell goes to bed late and wakes up late now.
