Paula Deens Rustic Orange Egg Benedict and Mimosa Rooftop

So my first mission which was set out by my dear friend Suzie: to drink mimosa rooftop with eggs benedict. When I read that I thought "What are eggs benedict?" So I did what anyone would do, I googled it. Turns out it did not sound so good. What the hell is hollandaise sauce? Raw egg yolks, butter, salt, pepper, and water. Hell no I was not going to eat that!

So I got to thinking maybe because I am in the south there would be a recipe that did not include raw eggs. I was wrong but Paula Deen did have something that sounded at least a little better. Rustic Orange Eggs Benedict. Now this is more along my taste. So off to the store I went in my PJ's at 11pm last night in search of ingredients.

As my alarm was going off at 8 I was thinking about the raw egg which I was going to be consuming. Into the kitchen I went and started cooking I did. The orange hollandaise sauce didn't turn out quite like I think it was supposed to but damn, raw egg yolk has never tasted to good. THANK YOU PAULA DEEN!!! After breakfast was cook I did what I hate doing, opening a bottle of sparkling wine. Every time I do open one, a swear always comes out, just like when I round the corner and see Mr. 5ft Lego man in the hallway.

All in all it was a wonderful mission to be on. Paula Deen saved me today and the mimosa got me ready for church, or ready for a nap. You all have a wonderful day. Pressing on!

If you would like to give Paula a try (I would greatly recommend) here is the recipe.

So it is the end of the day and I finished what I set out to do! 22 squares, 1 former square, and a BBQ lunch later I am now posting to the world! It was rather cold walking through town with the wind but I kept pressing on.

Lunch today was served at Barnes BBQ (www.BarnesBBQExpress.com) and was rather interesting. The BBQ sauce was tangy but the mac-n-cheese was yummy! I also gave Brunswick Stew a try for the first time in my life and was pleasantly surprised, that it was not bad! Well the food here was good, I am not sure it is the best Savannah has to offer!

Here are photographs of the day out. The construction picture was where Ellis Square was located but it is no longer there as you can tell. I think it is turning into a visitor center but do not quote me on that please!

Don't forget people if you do not give me challenges then I will have nothing to blog about. Just remember whatever you tell me to do has to done on the north side of Forsyth park, it has to be safe, and legal! Besides that it can be whatever you think up of!

22 Squares In This Town

So this morning started at 5:23 when I woke up after only four hours of sleep. UGHHH!!! And after two eggs over medium, two pieces of wheat toast, and a handful of grapes, I thought it would be a great idea to go for a walk.

One amazing white chocolate cappuccino with soy milk ($5.08) from Gallery Espresso (www.galleryespresso.com) sent me off for a walk. Next thing I knew I was in Forsyth park thinking about the coffee shop on the south end and wondering if their coffee was just as good. So off I went and I did find yet more amazing coffee. This time a 16oz. mocha cafe and a blueberry raspberry scone ($5.20) from The Sentient Bean (www.sentientbean.com). On my way back through Forsyth I stopped and gave my scone to one of the homeless men in the park. Better he have the calories then me!

Somewhere along the way I got to thinking about all the squares. So today I shall walk to all 22 of them. Start thinking ideas of what to do tomorrow. Where should I go next in Historic Savannah? I will post pictures of parks by morning tomorrow.

Pressing on!!!
