From my recent trip: Food Porn!

Now and then, I would remember to record what we ate, whether AndyS cooked it, or when we were eating out. Following are some of those photos.

Enjoy!

And...

Bon Appetit!

A shrimp recipe (don't recall the name) plus salad and French Bread, at Andy's home:




A shrimp salad from a restaurant in Galveston:




More shrimp! Near the Rookery/High Island




Lunch at a local Dallas restaurant:




Dinner at Andy's: Shrimp stew with corn muffins and honey:




Healthy Dinner at Andy's: Chicken breast, asparagus and fresh cut corn:





Dessert at Andy's: Ice cream from the Blue Bell Creameries (so good!) with mint from his garden:





And just for fun: Local Sanitation Group at Work: Hey, they have to eat too!

I was rummaging around in old flower photos from 2015...

And I came across these flowers that I took at the Wayfarer's Chapel up in Palos Verdes where it overlooks the Pacific Ocean.

I was happy to see these again, and I wanted to share them with all of you.

I was using my Nikon D3200. Everything was on auto! Hope you enjoy my little wandering down memory lane...
