Delaware Chews on Foodie Friday at 1906 in Longwood Gardens

Had a fabulous day at Longwood Gardens with a good friend.  In an effort to be frugal and also save some time, I brought a nice light lunch of fruit and salads which we ate in a designated picnic area,  We were not hungry when we decided we just had to try the fancy restaurant, 1906, on the property.  And you must know after walking around for a few hours we were thirsty and wanted cocktails.  Look how they served the bread in the cutest little white ceramic planter...and it was delicious.  Soft and warm and really tasty. 

 

We ordered some special cocktails and admittedly they were a little weird.  We picked a charcuterie to share and everything on it was delicious.  Might have been a special because I just checked the menu and it is no longer on it.

 

Then I had to play around some.  I don't know why  people think you should never remove color from beautiful flowers.  I like to.

 

Thanks for joining me Jess.

 

London Day 2 Keep Calm Carry On and DRINK

Day two and we were still wandering fairly aimlessly.  Walked over the Lamberth Bridge passing Westminster Abby and the Houses of Parliament.  After tiring of aimless wandering we got ourselves completely lost before finally finding the Churchill War Rooms and Museum.  I would recommend this highly to anyone visiting the area.

 

 

There are so many lovely gardens in the city we were pleased to find one to explore after contemplating war.  The St. James Park was a joy to walk.  The squirrels were approaching folks for nibbles and the park was filled with birds and ducks and swans and even pelicans.

 

We ended the day with snacks and drinks and met some fun people at the Locale Cucina Italiana.
