Ida Claire. Say it. Now say it with a southern accent. Listen. Bingo! I missed it the first few times, too. 🙂
This is Brad. He’s a Tivo peep I’ve known forever and met once almost 10 years ago. He’s lost 90# on Naturally Slim.
This is a delicious Bloody Mary. I learned I liked pickled okra. 🙂
This is Brad, me, and Smeek (Jeff). I’ve met him a few times before over the years but it’s always good to see him. He’s one of our resident foodies so he picked the place. I also got to try two of his fancy drinks. 🙂
And here’s a pic of me and Smeek from 2007 (that last guy is not Brad, unfortunately—it’s Peter):

And my super delicious lunch. [Thinking about it now, days later, still makes my mouth water.]

Shrimp & Grits–now, that’s what I’m talkin’ about! Love them. Looks fantastic!
