April 18th - 22ndh Lunch at Congaree and Penn

Monday: Chicken casserole (asparagus, onions, mushrooms); went to the River House to drop off boiled peanuts for Paul. C. He loves them! We enjoyed some wine, then drove to the FIGC to pick up AA from her practice and playing nine holes with Coach Bryan.

Yesterday, Sunday, Leaa gave me a birthday gift of gardening tools, nice and compact, will work perfect for my "deck" garden.

Planted a few herbs:

Tuesday: We made chili in the crock pot in the morning, AA did homework after school and we met up with Hugh and Maureen and Kathy at the River House. This was the first time Hugh was back since his hip/fall on March 12th/13th. I took deviled eggs and cheesecake phyllo bites. We had the chili for dinner and watched a favorite show, "Finding Your Roots".

Wednesday: Continued our morning routine, working, a little cleaning, etc. AA golfed and did her PGA Jr. all-girls team practice. Larry Bradley joined us on the FIGC Pub patio.

We watched the leaderboard all day for Stephanie's results in the 2022 PGA Professional Championship - she's the only woman who made it to Round 4!

Thursday: Regular Thursday morning, PD exercises. Hair cuts/color with Steve, then chili again for dinner. AA studied for an algebra quiz with tutor Laurie (she made a 90 on it).
Friday: I took Carolyn out for lunch as a "birthday" celebration at Congaree and Penn, a farm restaurant. The food was delicious, very eclectic, brunch menu had very unique appetizers (gator fitters to fried green tomatoes to smoked fish dip), hot dishes and cold salads. We enjoyed a kale salad with pepper vinaigrette with grapefruit sections, pomegranate seeds and candied cashews. For lunch we shared shrimp and grits (made from the farm's rice grits) and Steak "hash" with mushrooms, onions, red potatoes, gravy and fried egg on top. We ate half our lunch so we had room for a dessert, called Coconut bread pudding - looked nothing like bread pudding, but so delicious!

Walked the farm after our lunch:

We shopped at BJ's afterwards, then home!

Continuing about Friday: AA went to the PGA Jr. Fitness Friday at FIGC, she is "Coach Alyzabeth" on these days. We brought food home for dinner from the Pub, was going to make a pizza but time got away from us.
