After another lazy morning, we ventured onto Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. My good friend Taunja walked over on her lunch break and joined us at the Mediterranean Deli.
Then we went shopping for sandals in Carrboro (success!), and stopped at another store long enough for Jess to buy Ally a fairy book and for Cora to have a major rolling-on-the-floor-tantrum.
In the evening Jess shopped at Old Navy while the girls and I made some new friends. Ally bonded with the mannequins so much that she started calling them her "new family" and demanded a photo shoot. Cora ignored the people and focused on riding the dog.
Our last stop for the day was at Maple View Farms. I ordered an orange chocolate milkshake, Jess ordered a chocolate something-or-other milkshake, and Ally had a cookie dough ice cream scoop; Cora helped herself to whichever was closest to her mouth at any given moment. While we were rocking back and forth on the front porch and savoring our treats, Brittany (T's sister) magically appeared. It was fun to see her, catch up just a little, and to inform her that she was indeed on a double date. Ally and Cora had their picture taken next to the little cow again, and then they giggled and chased after bubbles on the front lawn as the sun went down.
