Project Artisan

restaurants 2 Minutes

Today was an excellent day for Tia and I. She is actually out of gas. Have to fix that tomorrow. We adventured to a new part of Phuket further North to meet up at Project Artisan for a lunch date with my new friend Barbara. (yes I hope to have finally met one!)

Barbara is amazing and so positive. She answered all my questions as I fired them at her to gain from her experience of living here 3 years already. She’s a breast cancer survivor, true warrior, who has zero fear and no time for anything not fun. Her eyes are Paul Newman blue!
We are going to try to have a lunch date once a week. She’s going to start a Wonder Woman group in Phuket. I can’t wait!
This restaurant was so good and artsy as you can see. A definite hub for expats. A destination of sorts. They are currently building on a spa and resort also. Believe me when I say this place is in the middle of nowhere.
They featured beautiful murals on their walls. Great ammunition for my tonyatakesthailand instagram where I am trying to show off Phuket’s street art.
This wasn’t a painting but still a very cool wall photo.
Looks like they may even transport groups to their restaurant. They also had a food truck.
So cute and clever. I will definitely go back there again. I was telling Barbara that I needed a mattress pad and a few household items and she recommended I go to “baan and beyond”. Hilarious right? Layout and everything is very similar to BBB. I purchased a few rugs there to replace the awful hunter green bath mats my place came with. But wasn’t that impressed with any other household items.
Once I returned to my condo I was sweating, because that’s what I do best here. So I changed into my suit and did a few laps. Still trying to get those goggles adjusted right so they don’t leak. Maybe I am too optimistic since they were cheap but I’m still hopeful.
Yesterday I literally had no food and ate only peanut butter on bread. Today since I was on a roll with Tia, I headed to the grocery store and purchased this electric cooker. (and a bottle of white wine :))
Hoping I can start scrambling some eggs and actually eating more of a meal in the future. ****SHOUT OUT to Kassie. I could NOT have carried on my scooter the rugs/or this range with a jug of water and groceries if it wasn’t for that thoughtful fold-able back pack she got me for my birthday! Coming in quite handy these days. Not so much for hiking or paddle boarding but getting used for sure!

I'm just your average gal figuring out her way through the second half of life that decided to follow a calling to Thailand. Now back in the USA due to covid, seeking nature for further direction.
