And tonight, we are going to a fish fry! Bring.it.ON. πŸ™‚
I was soooooooo thankful to be able to sleep in till 10:30 this morning (of course it felt like 7:30!) and then ate some quick yogurt and granola before showering and heading out with my parents. Above you saw a photo of the most amazing corn chowder with crab that I had for lunch and ricotta fig gelato….perfect on this hot sunny afternoon.
I’m off to catch up on some emails and then get ready for this evening. See you later!

    I was just in Savannah!!!

    My girlfriend owns a Consignment shop there on Broughton – its at the end next to Marc Jacobs & the Pawn shop.

    loved Lady & Sons – sunday buffet was soooooooooo goooooooood.

    sweet melissa pizza is amazing – at least I think thats the name, it has “sweet” in it – they put herbs on the bottom of their crust – genius!

    wet willies is worth a trip too!!!
