More snow pics

Looks like twinkling stars!

Light dusting on the azalea


Joe's truck the next morning

Max was not too interested in the little snowball that Ashley made for him.

Ashley got home from work and was just as excited as I was!

She wrote a message on Joe's truck (of course it got covered up by morning)

I took more pictures of our snow after posting the blog that night and never got around to posting again. Even if it was a light dusting, I still thought it looked pretty. Enjoy!

Been Awhile

Cheesestraws to die for!

Don't we look good!

This was a chicken dish with scrumptious mushroom sauce.

A beautiful fruit salad

If you're ever in Vicksburg, this restaurant will not disappoint you.

Susan talks with LD of LD's Kitchen.

Beautiful architecture of the B&B Literary Club.

I've missed some blog opportunities in the last few weeks. Lots of really fun things have kept me busy!

My friend, Susan, enlisted me to help her with some Delta "dining research" for her "Guide to Dining in the MS Delta" publication. She began her research on "Catfish Row" in Vicksburg and planned to do the complete Delta tour all the way to Memphis. What fun we had! And how I wished I could've traveled with her for the duration!

Trish & I met Susan in Vicksburg at the B&B Literary Club, a beautiful, historical facility where events, such as wedding receptions are held. Susan absorbed a ton of information from Story (yes - that was her name), who runs the B&B and Story's mom.

We ate our "first" lunch at LD's Kitchen. Too bad we missed out on his famous mac'n'cheese; it is only served on Wednesdays, and we were there on a Thursday. Meeting LD was a treat, and next time, I'll be sure to plan lunch there on a Wednesday!

Our second lunch was at Main Street Market. The food was delicious, and again, meeting Sally, the owner, and hearing her story was fascinating. A really special treat was getting to meet her mom, Miss Betty (can't remember her last name!), who has a bed and breakfast (George Washington Ball House) across the street from the Main Street Market.

We had a little time to browse downtown Vicksburg and was thrilled to see Susan again after so many years. The truth - she still looks EXACTLY the same after 30 years! No wrinkles, no gray hair, very slim and trim!!

Lots of photos shot that day; a few posted here, and maybe I'll get more posted another day.

Susan's deadline for publication is July 1st. Don't know when it will hit the shelves, but I'm sure I'll be one of the first in line to get a copy.
