YUMMMM

A great perk of travel teaching is the opportunity to experience delicious dinners with new friends.  The Sandhills Quilters outdid themselves with their choices of restaurants.  The last evening was extra special....unfortunately I don't recall the name of the place we went to near Pinehurst, NC.  But...I knew you all would love seeing the tasty treats....each one was presented in grand style.

 I ordered the Shepard's Pie.....it was outstanding...the lamb was tender and very flavorful.


 Shrimp and Grits

 This was a spicy lamb dish with roasted potatoes and yogart sauce.  It was delivered on a hickory board in a hot iron skillet and warm bread.  To die for!


 The restaurant is known for their elegant burgers.....great combos such as lamb, onions, and yogart sauce, angus beef with stilton cheese.....




 And look at this......the dessert menu featured ice-cream.....with 'embellishments!"  What a great description for ice cream toppings!


 Both June and Nanette gave it a thumbs up.....
And....I'm happy that my two newest pieces below found homes in Pinehurst!





Visit my gallery shop to become a keeper of some of my other pieces.
