Hey guys! It's been a while, but I just wanted to stop in and try to get back in the habit of posting. I think a good start is to add some pictures of one of my favorite vacation spots: Seaside, Florida. Seaside is a place that I had never been until I went with my husband (then boyfriend) about four years ago. He and his family have visited every year since he was a little boy, and I am delighted to have been introduced. My husband and I now try to do the same and visit as often as we can for a nice, relaxing few days at the beach.
Here's a picture of us at breakfast a couple of years ago.
This is one of our favorite restaurants when we're on vacation in Seaside. It's called Great Southern, and they have delicious by-the-beach southern cuisine. This particular visit was made interesting by a couple of birds fighting underneath the table next to us. I promise that's not a regular thing, but it made for a good memory.
Here's what I got that morning. This is Great Southern's fried green eggs benedict. It. Is. To. Die. For. And so are the grits because they're not just regular grits, they're cheddar grits.
When you're out and about in Seaside, here are a couple more places to hit up when you've already been to Great Southern.
Modica Market is a must. This little shop is a small-town specialty grocery store that has the most delicious strawberry cake you'll ever taste. You can't forget that The Truman Show was filmed inside of this little gem (and all of Seaside too).
After Modica Market, head on over to Sundog Books for a book. We will always stop in and grab our beach-reads for the week on our first day on vacation. My favorite spot in the bookstore to visit is the staff-picks section. Josh and I have found some great books over there.
A good spot for dinner after a day at the beach is Bud & Alley's pizza bar. Their pizza is great, but their brussels sprouts are even better.
If you're not feeling pizza, head up to Bud & Alley's. This restaurant has outdoor-only seating right on the beach. It's our favorite spot to watch the sun set over the ocean.
I'm breaking the theme of pictures from two years ago. Here's one from this year at Bud & Alley's.
If you're not at the beach or visiting one of these delicious places to eat, I recommend bike riding. It's a great way to see the gorgeous houses of Seaside and Watercolor. You can also explore lots of little trails and bridges that you can't get to in a car.
And last but certainly not least is Black Bear Bread Co. This little cafe is a quick drive down 30A to Santa Rosa Beach. They've got great savory dishes, but their cinnamon rolls are a must-try.
