- The day was Saturday. It was mellow, the mood was light and peaceful, when "books" popped into my mind! It was then I realized that a trip to The Olde Book Shoppe was needed. The excitement on the ducklings' faces could hardly be contained and that excitement grew and grew as we got closer to the Shoppe. The owner Ms. Omela Sookdeo and her trusted employee, Saleena work passionately to ensure that the warmth of the Shoppe is perpetuated and felt by all who visit. The books fed our soul and we left there feeling very content, but, I made a promise to the sweetest snow cone lady ever. She is a mother of all. Promises must be kept and that I did. J-Lee's Brain Freeze snow cone and ice-cream stall will be seeing us again. Enjoy!

Melissa, it's nice to see you passing on your love for reading to the ducklings. I remember you as a voracious reader visiting the Siparia Library ( where I worked) more than twice a week when you were in High School - Miss Sharla
Miss Sharla, you brought tears to my eyes 🥲. After more than 20 years, hearing from you is like the biggest breath of fresh air. 😭 ❤. Those days were some of the happiest days of my life, and YOU were an essential part of that time 🫂. You always had the best suggestions and made those library days magical ✨️ 💖 ❤️ 🫂🙏🏻🕊🌻🪻🌹🌺🥰🔑📘📕💯💫😘🫶🌼💕🎵🎶🌟🏆
You’re doing a great job raising those ducklings of yours.
🥲 thank you from the bottom of my heart 💯🫂🙏🏻🌻🪻🌺
Hi Ellis, I loved this video, it reminds me of my mom and I when we were younger. You remind me of my mother. She was then and still is an intellect, mindful, strong, give it your all attitude and don't give in...spiritual and loving. Don't stop what you're doing. We love all your videos. ❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤ please give my love to your amazing mom. 😊 and keep being an inspiration ✨️ ❤ 🫂. There is so much to be enjoyed in life, but others focus on the wrong things. Children need to be taught where to place their focus and I will continue to try to the best of my ability. God willing. 🙏🏻 ❤💫🌟✨️🕊💎 💃 🎉 🌹 💐 🏵
@@ellisfoodandmore6008 tthank you so much, she sends love to you and your beautiful girls as well. God's love and blessings always. ❤️
Ms Ellis that is a bush bug ,I love how you are encouraging,introducing,allowing your beautiful daughters to the world of good reading ,it is so nice to see they were interested in all that they saw in the book store and choose the books that they wanted to read .Be safe take care God bless you and the girls ,always.
Reading is the key 🔑 to everything. 😊. They are already asking when we can visit the shop again. 🤭🥰
@ellisfoodandmore6008 Very good ,you are their inspiration and I am sure that those three girls will go further and further with your guidance and learned knowledge 🙏 God bless you and them .
@user-ir5we9wu1g your words are genuinely heartfelt and appreciated. You have no idea how much. Thank you. 🙏🏻 ❤️ 🫂
Happy New Week to you and your lovely daughters . I love the way you always do something educational and informative with the girls.
Enjoy and relax with your newly acquired books. Have a blessed and beautiful week🎉❤
Hello Jacqueline 😊❤. Thank you so very much...today is rainy, so... on with the reading jersey and find a corner 😉 🏆 📖 📕 📘 😊❤
It’s great to see the girls are soo excited about reading, they’re brilliant ❤️ Keep up the great work in raising them.
Thank you, Uncle Haydn 🫂 🤗 ❤
Beautiful selection of books. Look at books. Reading gets you hook. Now took your time you go home and cook. As they sit in their nook and read their book. 😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖
Well well well, we have a poet in our midst 💯 😊. I enjoyed reading this 😀 🎉❤.
❤❤❤❤ you guys are too cute!! So happy to see you and the ducklings all enjoying your day! Snow cones 🍧 looked yummy. You def have to share your bodi and chicken recipe please!! I give you mad props for being so strong, dealing with a person who is bipolar is no easy task. But keep on doing what you’re doing and God will lead the way. It’s the hardest thing for some to get the help they need, and even harder when those around them blindly support them in not seeking proper treatment, but all anyone can do is pray that God helps them find their way and pray that he continues to bless you with the best of health, peace, and strength to endure and survive this trial. ❤❤
Lily, you are very wise with your words. 🙏🏻 🕊. God gives us the strength if we genuinely seek His guidance, a bitter pill to swallow for many. But we march on with faith 🕊🙏🏻🫂🌹🌼💯🏆🌺💫🫶🙌🏻
Wow. You so right . Now I see the other person stating to read too. Lol. You lead the way Ellis let the others merely follow
Ellis a nice little outing with your girls. Keep making the best memories!
Thank you dear ❤😊. The simplest days are some of the most remembered ❤️ 🎉🕊🌺🌹🤗💯🙏🏻😍
I also like to read so enjoy❤
I know right! 🫂. Blessings and love forever to you dear Janet ❤️ 🌹🌺💫🫶🌺🌻🌼🌷🪻
Those dolls gonna be great readers like their momma! Ellis I saw a video of you reading to students from your old school, I believe.... just awesome! Reading was one of my favorite past times when i was around Sydney' s age. Always wanted to come 1st, 2nd or 3rd in test in 'primary'/elementary school, just to get a book or pen. Those were the days. Had to study Jane Eyre in Literature, now Im hooked on Bridgerton 🧐 😂 Once again, you have rekindled my memory. Thank you🤗
Bridgerton ❤. As a gardener I’m hooked on it for the flower esthetics. Their floral arrangements and cakes alone have me giddy, who cares about the romance and hot and sweaty heated scenes😂😂😂😂😂
@Lizze28 Hi Lizard 🦎... I just love that era. Have you watched season 3 as yet? If not, you'll be so happy for Penelope! I skipped season 2. Daphne, Simon, Penn & Collin kept me engaged in watching. 🤣 Happy Gardening ~I'm sure your garden is as beautiful as you are !🤗
Reading can never lead you down a bad path. ❤😊. That reading was fir San francique Presbyterian primary and it was such a joy to be part of that program. 🙏🏻. Read, read, read. Knowledge is power 💪 📖 📕
Hi Ellis I love your videos
Great job keep safe an blessed ❤🙏😊
Thank you very kuch Suresh. It means a lot to me 😊. Hope you and the family are doing well. 🙏🏻 🕊🏆👏💫🌼💯🥳🌞
Snow cone with condensed milk is, hmmmm, the best. It’s an instant take ya back to childhood days. What a fun and educational day 🌺🐥📙🌺🐥📙🌺🐥📙
Betty you hit the nail on the head. Back to little girl days... barefoot and that never bothered me 😊. Sending love to you dear Betty 🇹🇹 🎉 😘🙏🏻🙌🏻💯🌹🌺🕊🫂❤

Hi, very interesting book store, juicy looking snowcone and some mouth watering lunch.... can't go wrong at all...not forgetting some lucky ducklings ❤❤
Charisma, everything about this day was perfect 👌 🙏🏻 ❤. Hope you're doing well 💗 💕
Come and read in my jardin! My robins will serenade you all and the finches will say hello. Hydrangeas are in full BLOOM and so is my Roses.
My favorite space to read is in my garden, just finished Liz Cheney’s “ Oath of Honor.”
That snow cone….what I would do for one, Mexicans make it here in NY too, but I prefer homes. It’s ridiculously sweet here and condensed milk makes it a diabetic coma waiting to happen.🥴 that coffee one has my name on it👈🏽
God willing, maybe one day wile will be able to hibiscus 🌺 rose 🌹 🫂 ❤😊
My dearest ellis and ducklings, it was a beautiful day with you all. I enjoyed the book store as well as the snowcones. Enjoy your coffee flavor snowcone. ❤❤❤❤❤

Enjoy family ❤😊
Hello my family 😊🌼🫶🧡🤗
Those bookstores are gold; also thrift-stores as well. Once i found an Agresti luxury pen display in a thrift store for $2 !
YES TWO DOLLARS !
I had a good feeling about it, so I bought it. Got home, did my research and voila: that size was reselling for $250!
Say J-A-C-K-P-O-T 5 times fast haha !!!
Wonderful day out, I never understand why some folks think we NEED a lot of money to have fun - simplicity is the ultimate sophistication!
Get dressed, jump in the car, stop for a sno-cone, buy some preloved books, share love and smiles!
Ahhh laboring in love !
It costs little & we gain PRICELESS memories :) See ya on the next one. Shalom Shalom : peace within, peace without.
My mothers go to phrase “simplicity is the ultimate sophistication “ as well as “mediocrity always attacks excellence “
@@Lizze28 ohh I love that one on mediocrity ... I hope you are well Lizze . We are truly blessed to live by this wisdom.
You're correct. Sometimes you get thr best deals in the least likely places. It's true! 🙏🏻🌺🕊🌼💯🤗🏆
Love the food especially the fresh salad 🥗❤
The plate always feels incomplete without SALAD 😋 😊🎉
Love the outing..love the snowcone and flavors...everybody had fun❤

I read Thomss Hardy's " The Woodlanders " and Ernest Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea". Nice video.
Those are great reads. I must revisit the woodlanders 🙏🏻. Many parallels between the environment and humans were exquisitely captured by Hardy. The old man and the sea will forever take my breath away. 💯💪🙌🏻👏🌟😃 📖 📕
