This morning I had a surprise waiting on me:
Four cards + Cadbury eggs! How lucky am I? I got 2 cards from Brent, one from Milly and one from Oscar!
My card to Brent:
We debated about where to go to lunch and finally decided on Wintzell’s Oyster House. Brent had been before and didn’t really care for it, but he decided to try something different today since I have been wanting to try it. I discovered my love for oysters (cooked only, but not fried!) during our trip to Orange Beach last summer.
Its not really that pretty of a day, but we did get to sit by the window, which was nice as it overlooks the river.
Bread first:
Tea (not great):
OYSTERS!!!!
They were really, really good! I ordered them grilled and they came in a butter sauce + parmesan cheese. They were actually very large. Delicious! A baked potato came on the side. Brent had shrimp and grits and could not finish all of his food. He said it was good. I didn’t taste it, but it looked really good.
After that we went to Sam’s, Sears, and Academy Sports. We saw a really good deal on an elliptical trainer at Sam’s last week and had talked about getting it for V-Day. Unfortunately it was gone, and we really didn’t find another one for a comparable price.
We buried our sorrows (ha!) in dessert:
These cookie ice cream sandwiches came from Cold Stone Creamery and were very good, but too much! They would have been perfect half this size.
Very good! Now we are back at home contemplating the rest of the afternoon: movie?? gym?? exercise at the VA?? grocery shopping?? I think a nap might be in my near future…….
