Yum! The beach means egg salad for us! And M&M cookies! Have fun! We go to Galveston on a regular basis since we live so close. My DH is a photographer, so he provides me with many pictures to tide me over when we can't make it there.
Picnicking on the way! Folks don't do that so much anymore with all the fast food joints.
When my family would go on a vacation when I was a child, my mother would load up a cooler with assorted sandwiches (pimiento cheese and ham would be good) and sodas too, and we'd stop at a nice roadside park or rest stop to eat our lunch. I remember wishing my parents would stop at McDonald's sometimes, but deepdown I knew the expense of 6 children didn't allow for always eating out lunch. Ironically, I now long for the luxury of an on-the-way picnic of homemade goodies and a cold Pepsi from the glass bottle instead of the fast food joint.
Bottled drinks always seem more refreshing to me.
(It reminds me of the scene in "Driving Miss Daisy".)
Yummy - egg salad sandwiches! I'm thinking about you heading to the Gulf and Dolly heading that way too. I'm praying you will have had a wonderful time and arrived safely home before the storm blew in.
oh yum. I thought of that for my lunch here today too.

Hello, Dolly!
ReplyDeleteBe careful on the gulf. Hurricane Dolly is getting bigger.
Praying you have a good holiday.
