O/T: This heat and humidity has me craving....

A tomato sandwich on lightly toasted bread with heirloom tomatoes, red onion, spring mix greens, mayo and salt and pepper.

A Bloody Mary too (thanks Aniki 8). I always order mine with extra vodka. If I'm at a place that serves it with the works (bacon, pickled carrots, peppers, etc...), that's a plus! This is basically "my drink". At Thanksgiving and Christmas I like to make them with homaemade veggie juice. Bobby Flay's recipe.

What's your favorite sandwich?

A G&T made with the gin from our local distillery and a good, upper grade tonic (Fever Tree tonic!) - or a V&T from same distillery. With lemon, not lime.

Mmmmm. Crab.I have yet to find a local place for a quality crab sandwich. It was one of the perks when we lived between Santa Barbara and Santa Monica.

We are blessed where we live

We are blessed where we live on the east coast. My husband's family lives on the Chesapeake Bay and it's less than a 2 hour drive to get there.. plus we have our own house to stay in there. My DH was a commercial waterman for many years so a lot of his friends are still in the business. In fact, we have a small mom and pop seafood guy right across the street and they steam the crabs for you.. so it's pretty convenient!
