Happy Birthday to Me!!

Paula Deen's restaurant on the corner...three stories high. We sat on the third floor.
Thursday was my 40th birthday and we celebrated in style...lunch at the Lady and Sons restaurant in downtown Savannah!! We had originally planned on having dinner there, but a severe thunderstorm warning for the late afternoon modified our plans slightly, so we went to lunch instead :-). The food was every bit as good as we had hoped for...fried chicken, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, collard greens, black-eyed peas (only Grammy ate those, but she said they were the best she had ever eaten), macaroni and cheese, crab cakes and my personal favorite of the day, hoecakes!! Everything was southern-style scrumptious!! I couldn't have asked for a better birthday! It really was a dream come true for me :-). Now we make preparations to celebrate the real reason for the season...Jesus's birthday!!

 

Paige's piled-high plate of Paula Deen's famous fried chicken...all of the rumors are true....it IS the best fried chicken EVER!!
 

My complementary gooey cake complete with candle and singing!
 

My double chocolate birthday cake that we all very much enjoyed in the comfort and safety of camper. We actually were still so full from lunch, that all we had was cake and a glass of milk for dinner...absolutely perfect if you ask me!!
