A Headache, Stonewall Kitchen, Duke and a Give Away

 

 I'm sure your wondering how all these tie together.  Let me explain. 

Headache


As we were driving down the Maine turnpike today I mentioned that I was getting a headache, my husband thought it was because I hadn't had lunch so he suggested that we stop for lunch at Stonewall Kitchen (twist my arm).

Hubby stayed outside with Duke and sat under the awning at one of the lovely picnic tables.  When I asked him what he wanted he said "surprise me" . . . OK . . .  I went inside and ordered lunch for us.  I ordered a pulled pork sandwich for my husband with a side of bow-tie pasta salad, for myself I ordered, are you sitting down . . . a melt in your mouth lobster ruben, with a side of potato salad!  OMG, talk about to die for, actually both sandwiches were amazing and delicious.

Smile everyone!

Duke

While my husband was waiting outside, this really nice man came over and said hello and asked if our dog Duke would like any water.   I mean, the people in Maine don't get any nicer.  So, out I come and my husband is chatting with a guy that I assumed he knew from college or work, then he introduces me to Jim Stott - now the wheels in my brain are turning, because while I know that name, the face and the name weren't connecting for me . . . 

My husband has a grin from ear to ear waiting for me to put the name and face together.  Finally it clicked as my husband said, Jim is one of the founders and co-owners of Stonewall Kitchen! Then Jim went and got Duke a bowl of water!  When he returned we chatted a bit.  The ladies who were lunching next to us were very impressed that one of the founders of Stonewall Kitchen got our dog a bowl of water.  I was too!

Ocean Breezes & Country Sneezes Give Away!

As some of you may know, it's my one year Blogversary, and in honor of my Blogversary I'm having a Give Away!  I've met so many wonderful people from around the globe who have become friends it boggles the mind!

I've decided to give away a Stonewall Kitchen Grilling cookbook, mainly because Jim Stott was so nice to my dog Duke.  I also have a few other goodies that will be a surprise!  All I'll tell you is that you can use it in the kitchen and it came from a farmers market and it's not food!  

(I purchased and paid for this cookbook myself, there are no endorsements from Stonewall Kitchen for this give away).
