Bread Puddin' Boyz deliver the goods

So, we (Bread Puddin' Boyz' (aka Bob Ferari and I) were tasked by Kathy Schuh and her employer Pat from Barrett Financial in Anacortes with delivering about 70 bread puddings to deserving and cherished clients that reside in various locales in and around Skagit, Island and Snohomish counties.

We prepared our trusty sleigh, but alas' one of the reindeer (horses) from the Mustang Motor had gone "south." Santa immediately popped the "sleigh's" hood, determined and fixed the problem and we were off on a multi-county adventure in our trusty sleigh with 290 horses. Thanks to GPS technology we were able with the great help from "Jean" and "Elvira" from Wave and Garmin to set about to track down each address and deliver the Bread Puddings!

We initially thought "Piece of cake, er' Bread Pudding," we can knock this out in a day. Au contraire: 2 1/2 days later we completed the arduous and often comical journey dropping (not literally) the last of the Bread Puddings to a happy resident on Camano Island.

Our task completed we celebrated and toasted at Pacioni's Italian restaurant in Mount Vernon. With a name like Ferari, we're not going to O'Donnell's, right?

Anyway, a fun experience for both of us leaving us both with a satisfaction that we helped bring joy, well puddin' anyway, to deserving folks across three counties. Our trusty steed has been put away for another season to come.

And as the real Santa would say, "Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night" or as Bob Ferari would say, "Mardonna Mi."
