This post is dedicated to Miss Jessica Williams, who specifically asked me to "update yo blog, jolene"...so here's to you Jess!!
When I was traveling the East Coast last fall, there was a joke amongst my fellow travelers that one of our members was going to be going on a "taste tour," to broaden his taste buds' horizons, as we tried lots of new foods. It seems that when I made the move from the landlocked state of open plains to the shoreline of western florida, that my taste buds would soon be on tour of their own. I have always been a fan of fish, but have never really ventured out into the world of seafood because my first brush with shrimp ended horribly. But, I'm up for trying anything at least once, so Jess and Amber introduced me to the wonderful world of seafood.
After our softball game one night, we headed to the Captain's Table for dinner. Can I just say, delish?! I tried baked oysters, two different kinds even! Regular (i guess that's what you'd call them) and Cajun. I also tickled my taste buds with grilled scallops. And for my meal, I had a Grouper sandwich. tasty! I also had the opportunity to eat at Bonefish Grill, and tried bang bang shrimp (still dislike shrimp heavily, it's texture is like eating very fine bubble wrap and i do not enjoy it) and Mahi Mahi. Man, that fish is so good!
Since I am taking on the vegetarian lifestyle, I'm sure there will be more food-related posts...maybe i could do a "julie and julia" segment...haha
Here's to trying new things! Here's to you, Jess!
