Rainy Day Monday, too…
Rain and more rain. But supposedly much better tomorrow.
We’ll see.
Jan and I didn’t do much of anything today. Just sat around the coach, watch the rain, read, watched the rain, watched satellite TV, watched the rain screw up the satellite TV, and so on, and so on…
We decided to go back to Lulu’s for supper again, since we may have to move on tomorrow if there are no vacancies here.
Tomorrow night we may be somewhere around Port St. Joe, FL. We’ll see.
Anyway, back to Lulu’s. Jan had the Shrimp & Oyster Basket that I had last time. I just had a sandwich because I was trying to save room for a piece of their Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding with Vanilla Pecan Sauce.
I wish I had just had the Bread Pudding because I was already pretty full when it came. This meant I was too full to eat it all by myself, so I had to ‘force’ Jan to eat more than the one spoonful she had asked for.
Maybe ‘forced’ isn’t quite the right word. It was more like ‘dueling spoons’ there for a while.
I ask Jan if she thought anyone would mind if I licked the plate? She just gave me “The Look”. All you married guys know what “The Look” is, right?
BTW, I have a bone to pick… or rather a nut to pick with Paula Deen. About nuts. Pecans actually.
On her show today, she and some other lady were making cinnamon rolls with pecans. She was saying “P-Cans”.
She asked the other lady how she said it, and that lady also said it ‘P-Cans”.
Then Paula uttered blasphemy.
She said “If you say ‘P-cahns’ instead of “P-Cans”, you’re just not from the South.
Well excuuuussssseee meee!
I was born and raised in Alabama and we said “P-cahns”. ‘P-Cans’ was what those damned yankees, damned carpetbaggers, damned people from up north said.
So here’s a poll. How do you pronounce it?
More tomorrow, depending on where we are…
and who votes my way in the poll…
Rainy Day Sunday…
We’re in our 2nd day of rain. And still more until Tuesday at least.
We don’t yet know when we’re leaving here. Our 2nd week is up this Tuesday, but what they didn’t tell us is that since we are parked in what is considered a premium site, we can only stay here for two weeks and then we have to be out for at least one day. Then we can come back for another two weeks, if we want.
But this means we’ll be looking to move in the middle of Spring Break. And the park, which has 497 spaces, has been full on and off for the last week or so. So we’ll see how it goes.
Saw something interesting at the restaurant we ate at last night.
You know those arcade games you find in places where the kids can use a claw to try and grab a toy and drop it in the slot?
Well now they have one for adults. It’s called “The Lobster Zone“.
It’s the same idea, except here your claw dips into a tank of salt water populated with live lobsters. It costs $2.00 for 30 seconds and there’s a $20 bill taped to the lobster to pay for his cooking.
