Daisy's Savannah Adventure

No it's not an Episode of I Love Lucy.....just Floozie and me saying goodbye after a fun filled week of adventure in Savannah. The week flew by all too quickly and as usual we tried to cram in a year's worth of laughing, talking, and favorite things into the brief time we had.


Our adventures included a trip to Daisy, GA (about 2 miles from Claxton). Mr. Wonderful had done some research and promised me a trip to Daisy. It is a very small community built on the railroad line. They exported cotton and turpentine. They have preserved several building and a red caboose that was used as a doctor's office. It was a fun trip !


We had lunch at Hirono's where Mr. Wonderful tried to share his cold squid appetizer with us. Floozie was braver than I was and tried some. I declined as I hated to eat something that I knew Mr. Wonderful would like lots more than I would.


We went to the Byrd Cookie Company where I stocked up on Key Lime Coolers (cookies that taste like key lime pie) and Shrimp and Grits. We were forced to taste all the varieties of cookies they make including the newest flavor "Chocolate Key Lime cooler". Floozie bought their orginial Oatmeal Scotch Cookie and kept looking for a glass of milk to top it off.



Savannah has a Flea Market called Kellers, Flea Market and has a huge cow that stands in the entry way. I've always wanted to take a picture of the the cow so Mr. Wonderful went out of his way to make it happen. I love her straw hat and we also discovered that she has a watch and charm bracelet on on her two front legs as well as a engagement ring on her tail.


I got to go shopping with Floozie and my favorite friend Audrey at the World Market. As you can see they quickly found a comfortable place to rest up from our shopping spree. We found all kinds of wonderful and fun items to fill our shopping bags.



We ate lunch at one of my favorite places...."Sweet Potatoes". Talk about your Southern Cookin! I had the vegetable plate that consisted of Sweet Potatoes with apples, corn pudding, collars with lemon, and cold asparagus with tomatoe dressing. It was delicious!


Floozie and I also got to go out to lunch with my good friend and mentor Anna. I want to be Anna when I grow up. I always call Anna and schedule a lunch date first thing before our schedule gets too crazy and too crowded. We always meet at the Olive Garden for endless soup and salad.

No trip to Savannah is complete without lunch at the Tea Room. Floozie arranged for us to meet Baba ,
Betty, and Audrey. I had ham and chive quiche with Peach Tea.

Both Baba, and Floozie won their 300 workouts shirt last week. Both have been very successful and faithful at working out at Curves. I must have been sleep deprived as I saw the 300 and immediately thought they had lost 300 pounds! Floozie and I worked out Monday through Friday last week in addition to running all over town. It was a wonderful wacky, whirlwind week that I look forward to every year. Thanks for the warm hospitality and wonderful memories Floozie!
