Since I usually post a recipe on Sundays and love to read menus for ideas, I decided to post about the fabulous meal we shared the night before Angela left for her last (I hope) year in college. My sister treated us to dinner at Angela's choice of restaurants, which was Restaurant Paradis in Rosemary Beach, on scenic 30-A. Our meals were divine. Thank you, Carol! Please forgive the phone photographs.
We are expecting Tropical Storm Issac/Hurricane Issac here, so I will be back when I can. ENJOY!
Update: We are under mandatory evacuation. Packed and ready, but waiting.
Update: For the time being I am moving up the street to my sisters for higher ground. We are expecting to lose power, so I will look forward to being back soon.
Update: We are out of the danger zone. Rain and wind, but our neighbors to the west are getting the worst.
