Where to eat while in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores, AL
Comments (4)So far, found Cosmos where they make a Chicken Roulade, described as "twin bacon wrapped chicken breasts stuffed with asparagus & gruyere cheese, lightly sauteed and finished in the oven. Served with our house risotto and a sage & leak cream sauce" in case mom doesn't want seafood. Yea right. And Cobalt where they have a seafood pizza topped with "layers of bay shrimp, scallops, sweet blue crab, bells peppers, onions & asparagus on a saffron crust with three chesse alfredo sauce and fresh grated Parmesan." Yum. Can't wait. As you can see, I'm only through the Cs! And if I wasn't in the mood to eat, I could head a few miles down the road and toss a mullet. "And Perdido Key is the last island in the long chain.. the best beach bar in the Gulf with its myriad activities both inside and out. Jimmy Buffet has been here as have many other big names. The seafood is good and cheap, and the booze couldn't flow faster from a fire hose. While I was sitting on the deck, three people skydived down beside me, and the bartender had their favorite beer waiting for them. Now that's service! Another interesting and rather unusual activity is the annual mullet tossing competition; locals talk about how much fun it is to see how far you can throw a dead fish." Here is a link that might be useful: Mullet tossing...See MoreDo You Live to Eat or Eat to Live???????
Comments (70)Cupcake Shows. . . I LOVE that term, and had never heard it before, but it fits so perfectly, although I had heard about a show called something like: "Cupcake Wars", or something like that. Contestants try to outdo each other, making the best cupcakes. I don't care much for Barefoot Contessa, or Pioneer Woman, but Paula just sends shivers up my spine. I don't know what it is about her. I love her hair and her eyes. She is just so 'secksy', (to 'this old man'). But she makes me want to puke with her CONSTANT "ya'lls". I mean 'every other word'!!!! Does anyone think that maybe she is told to do that? Anywhooo, if I had a portrait of Paula Dean, it would be up on my bedroom wall, (pant, pant). Forgive me for getting off topic. And now . . . back to our regularly scheduled programming....See MoreHow To Achieve That Being Watched While You Eat Feeling
Comments (7)I don't see how more than three people could eat at that round table, not counting the chair, which would make four. The person at the back would have to be waited on/served, as there would be difficult access to exit. I like artwork with eyes in it, although that one would not be one of my choices. My brother hung a life-size self-portrait in the dining room in such a position that I see it immediately when I walk in our front door (there is an opening like a window between the living room and dining room), and it used to be disconcerting, but I'm used to it now. Also, I hung a large portrait of myself in the hall so that he has to look at it while he is eating, but he never seemed to have a problem with that. We have lots of masks in our house, and while they might be disconcerting to some of our guests (at least one in particular who said she was afraid of voodoo), they do not affect us. I think I might have trouble getting used to a life-size statue, however. I had a mannequin in one place where I lived in San Francisco, and I used to put different dresses and wigs on her. It was not my mannequin, BTW, but I was the only one who dressed her. One thing I do NOT like is a wall with lots of family portraits, especially English style portraits. Those seem creepy to me, much like the eyes above. As a child, I was afraid of stuffed fish on walls....See MoreDo you eat breakfast foods for breakfast or can you eat anything?
Comments (56)I eat a breakfast-type breakfast every morning, and have all my life. Other than cold leftover pizza in college, that is. For the majority of my life though, there is no way I could or would eat leftovers from the night before, etc. My DH is a family practice doc and he’s very into healthful eating. I agree, having been in the healthcare field myself for many years, but I absolutely refuse to eat food that’s “good for me” but tastes boring or ugh! Thank goodness we both love to cook and experiment with recipes, as I can honestly say that we eat delicious breakfasts every day of the week....See Moreplllog
