Five Friday Happy Bringers 3/15/24

Posted on by Neal Saye

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Savannah Wisteria in March.

The aroma!

2. A yummy breakfast of candied sweet potatoes, fresh cut pineapple and market style bacon.

In our Love dishes!

3. More Savannah beauties.

4. My Sweet and Spicy Shrimp Pineapple Boats with Thai Chili Sauce from the other night.

They were a hit!

5. The belief that our bodies know how to be well and are always trying to move toward wellness.

May you have a Healthy Weekend ahead!

Five Friday Happy Bringers 3/1/24

Posted on by Neal Saye

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. HR cavorting around in local bamboo.

2. This incredible salad from the other day. Do you know the joy of salad?!

3. Grandson Gabriel being a standout in the regional basketball championship for eighth graders here in Savannah.

And here he is continuing to hog the trophy.

(FYI: I yelled and clapped far too inappropriately loud at times.)

4. Having at least a dozen reasons to smile everyday! (What have you smiled about today?)

5. Savannah’s Perfectly Pretty in Pink February!

Okay, maybe I have more than five Happy Bringers this Friday …

6. Beautiful morning coffee and breakfast burrito at nearby cool and hip Origin Coffee Bar. (Because of course I know what is cool and hip.)

7. This animal-looking stump thingy Robert and I saw on our Fort Pulaski/Cockspur Island hike the other day.

I sorta wanted to hug him.

Weekend hugs to you!

Sunday Night Culinary Joy

Posted on by Neal Saye

HR (Husband Robert—you know that) and I are together probably 95% of the time.

So this evening, after we did a little shopping, Robert suggested that I shashay down BY MYSELF to my favorite oyster bar here in Savannah, Sorry Charlie’s.

So I did.

Chef’s Sampler, dozen. With lots of fancy names and points of origin, which I promptly forgot.

I have this quirky habit where I turn over the oyster shell once I eat the oyster.

Four left.

Just DELICIOUS.

But I wonder who the first person was, who decided to eat … an oyster!

Last one.

I hope you ate something delicious on this Sunday.

I HAVE To Show You These!

I know I have been posting pictures of Savannah‘s camellias pretty often lately (emphasis on “pretty”), but I just HAVE to share a few photos from Robert’s and my trip to the Savannah Botanical Gardens this morning.

Here’s one named for former First Lady Rosalynn Carter.

But my favorite was this stunning White Princess from the massive camellia bush above.

The Beauty of Mother Nature!
