Sights & Sounds of Tour de Charleston

What a wonderful weekend!  Mr. R and I had such a fun time with the McPhersons and showing them around Charleston.  Here's a run down of the weekend.

FRIDAY NIGHT
Dr. AMM and I (and Mr. R, begrudgingly) shed a couple tears while drinking some red wine, eating bad food and watching "Something Borrowed."  I have read the books so was not surprised by the ending, but doesn't John Krasinski just steal the friggin show?  Rumor has it that Emily Giffin's next book, Something Blue, is in works for the big screen too!  Can't wait.

SATURDAY
First we went to the Marion Square Farmers Market and had an amazing time.  I forget how wonderful it is.
I had yummy cheese grits and the McPherson's sampled the world famous crepes.
We bought fresh flowers, handmade soaps for Dr. AMM's "Greek" bathroom, and saw interesting things like this...and they call ME the crazy cat lady...

Then we took a stroll over to East of the Cooper to the old Pitt Street Bridge for a beautiful view of the city!  I forget how gorgeous it is sometimes...




THEN we went to Trader Joes.  I can't beleive how fabulously cheap it is!  We stocked up, obviously Mr. M was very happy about the $$.

Saturday night we hit up The Fat Hen with a group of 9.  It was a great time and great food!  Mr. R got a burger with pimento cheese and carmelized onions, Dr. AMM got the salmon bernaise and both Mr. M and I got the crab cakes.  And we polished off two bottles of red wine...DELISH!!!!

SUNDAY
Unfortuneatly the weather did now allow for paddle boarding or "SUP"ing as we are now calling it (Stand Up Paddleboarding).  Apparently thats the cool way to say it.  The wind was too strong so we ended up just going to Station 30 a Sullivans.  We were enjoying ourselves having a nice little time with the McPhersons and all of a sudden EVERY SINGLE CHI-O from CofC was at our beach.  Guess that was their bid day party and we felt like we were in the middle of Spring Break Cancun 2k11.  Needless to say both Mr. R and Mr. M were not complaining...
 HOPE YOU HAD A GRAND WEEKEND TOO, WE CERTAINLY NEED TO KEEP AN EYE THE ONE COMING UP!
