Last Friday, Mary and I went to the recently reopened Sam's in Sunset Beach. It was closed about a year ago and was going to be torn down and replaced with a strip mall, but a local guy bought it and renovated it.
It's not the same old Sam's that we know and love - it has an entirely new menu, linen tablecloths, upscale silverware and plates, top cabin service... and the prices reflect the changes. No longer can you get the Fisherman's Platter for $10 or the lobster for $15. But I must say... I have never had such good food at Sam's before! I always liked the place for the kitsch atmosphere, and didn't mind that the food was so-so, but now the ambiance is totally cool and the food is insanely good.
I give it a solid 8 out of 10 stars. Check it out here:

This weekend one of my projects was cleaning out the linen closet and going through the cedar chest. In the linen closet I found two gift boxes with Scott's name on them. They contained some of his precious baby clothes which were carefully wrapped in tissue. I have seen baby pictures of Scott wearing these! His beautiful white linen suit complete with tie and belt; his soft blue and white knit jumper, sweater and cap with felt
moccasins; a white seersucker hat with blue and white striped seersucker shoes; red and white Christmas shoes - they are all so adorable, just like him!! I have carefully re-wrapped them in tissue and placed them in the cedar chest, awaiting the arrival of our Grandsons...I sure am looking forward to being a Grandma! Elliot, Abbie & Alysson, Claire, Ian...not to rush you into anything, but when the time is right...babies please!!!
