 Pumpkin Spice Donuts 

Mexican Chocolate Donuts

Krispy Kreme, It feels like I am cheating on you. Is it possible to love another Southern donughnut shop? Twice this week I've indulged in Glazed Gourmet's fancy doughnuts. Bites of pumpkin spice, sour dough, Mexican chocolate and regular glazed. Yum! I was lucky enough to be able to try one Wednesday morning when they first opened their doors. These tasty treats are addicting... I headed back for more on Friday to get some for a friend's birthday. 

Pumpkin was the group favorite. It doesn't taste too pumpkiny (or manufactured). Mixed reviews with Mexican chocolate. Some people don't love the spicy but I enjoyed it. Between my popsicles last weekend and these doughtnuts I am sensing a trend with the Mexican chocolate. M loved the regular glazed because they are super soft. 

I can't wait to try the raspberry, pistachio and maple bacon. Fancy!

Buffalos at Palmetto Bluff

May River Bloody Mary

If you know me, you know I am love with anything that mentions the May River. 

Besides the fantastic name, this drink features Firefly vodka and pickled okra. Yum!

White Peach Sangria

Dry Reisling, Couintreau, and White Peaches. Mom loved it.

Sweet Potato Fries with Maple Aioli.

By the time our lunch came I was done taking photos. I had the Turkey and Brie Panini and she had the Brisket Club. With a view of the water we were in heaven. They overheard our conversation and sent us off with a birthday treat. 

We spent the rest of the afternoon walking around Palmetto Bluff. At 85 degrees it was decidedly cool for August. 

The scenery is gorgeous. Next time I'll bring back more photos.

Sweet Birthdays

My mom and my nephew have the same birthday! Today the little guy turns 4. It has been so fun shopping for both of them this year. I am headed to my hometown for a little celebration. I couldn't help but snap a photo of one of the presents on the way out. I hope your Saturday is off to a good start! What do you have planned this weekend?

Birthday fun!

                                      

        Taking photos of pretty wrapping paper is underrated. Sweet, sweet friends.

Mmmm.... Lemon ice box pie. More on that later.
