Good company, good eats


Sue, Randy, Sarah, and Margaret are here tonight. Sue said she wanted to eat at Blue Orleans. Since that's one of our favorites, we were heartily in favor.

We had an interesting variety of dinners: Crab cakes and artichoke/lobster dip for appetizers; entrees were crawfish pasta (2), crawfish etouffe (2), shrimp and grits, and pork loin in Southern Comfort sauce. All were very good.

Only problem was that as we were coming home, Sarah realized that she was having an allergic reaction to the shellfish. Once we got home, Sue turned right around and took her to the doc-in-the-box. They gave her the appropriate benadryl, prednisone, and epinephrine - so she's okay now. But the doc did tell her that the "next time" her reaction would be happen much quicker. And we're going to the beach in 2 weeks. She's going to have to be really careful (and she does really love shrimp). She usually carries an epi-pen, but didn't have it with her for some reason.

We've had fun looking at the wedding pictures. At one time, four of the six of us were sitting here with our laptops going. Plus Sarah was "multi-tasking" with her phone.

We're getting into beach mode - today's photo is from Folly Beach, SC.
