Thinking back...

So, it's obviously been awhile since I posted my last entry. Sorry about that. I moved to Richmond for school, and all the time between the last entry and this entry were devoted to getting ready for that.

So, let me try to think of what I ate in Bethany. On the way there we stopped at this restaurant on the water. It looked nice, it probably would have been nicer if it were daytime. We meet in the parking lot and walk in, only to find that it's karaoke night in the bar. Oh what fun. My favorite song of the night - three drunk girls singing Like a Virgin. So, anyways, back to the food. I had fried shrimp. Not at all what I was expecting though. It was good, but a little over cooked. The sauce was incredibly spicy too. But, they drunk people singing karaoke made up for it.

In Bethany we didn't eat out for dinner like we usually do. Which kind of disappointed me because I do love going out to eat. We stayed in and had hamburgers and chicken, just the norm. Although for lunch we did eat out some. We ate at a place called The Frog House near the boardwalk. It wasn't bad. I had a BLT, one of my all time favorite foods. Still, anywhere I order it it can't ever win over my moms BLTs. But, I do have to admit, I make some pretty good ones too.

Breakfast was primarily eaten at the condo. We got pastries the first day from a bakery across from The Frog House. They were yummy. I'm not much of a scone person, but they do make one good cinnamon scone. We travelled to Rehoboth Beach one morning for a day of shopping. We left early, so we stopped there for breakfast. This was my favorite place we ate. It was called the Purple Parrot Grill. Breakfast there was average but still good. They made homefries the exact way my dad makes them, which leads me to believe thats the reason I love this place. They also had awesome coffee mugs. Something you probably don't know about me is how much I love coffee mugs. I use the same exact one every morning, but it doesn't stop me from buying more (example: my awesome asparagus stock one :)). Plus, their decor is pretty cool. It's tropical, as the name implies. They allow you to write on their tables/ chairs/ walls, which was cool even if I didn't do it. Overall it's a great atmosphere, good food and has pretty decent prices. And it's a favorite of the locals, which just furthers the reason to visit there when you go to Rehoboth Beach.
