Dilly Bean Review


So do ya'll remember when I did this post about canning green beans? We opened a can a couple of weeks ago to give them a try. These are by far the most amazing green beans I have ever had. I'm not a canned green bean fan usually but I love these. The dill and garlic is what makes them so amazing. They're the bean version of a dill pickle.

Weekend In Savannah

Two weekends ago Nathan and I headed down to Savannah after we had finished working at the bakery in the morning. We checked into the Marriot and then headed downtown for some window shopping and eating.





Saturday night we ate dinner at Vinnie Van Go Go's in the market district. I think they have the best pizza in Savannah and the best outdoor seating.





Artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes and Italian sausage...yummy!






After walking a few blocks to burn off a little pizza went stopped by The Distillery for a couple craft beers. They have 25 taps and rotate the beer they serve. The atmosphere is very nice and the menu looked really good. We'll have to go back sometime when we haven't already eaten.










Sunday morning we got up and walked down Bay street to B. Matthews Eatery for brunch. I had called ahead because someone told me that we should make resurvations. We showed up right at 9 when they opened and there was already a small line. After we ate we knew why.








Nathan ordered a opened-faced salmon BLT that was topped with a poached egg. It tasted just as amazing as it looked.


I had a crab, atichoke and goat cheese omlette served with fruit and yummy stone ground grits. It was by far the best omlette I've ever had.







I have more pictures but for some reason my computer won't upload them right now. We went to church after eating at B. Matthews and then ate lunch at Blowin Smoke BBQ. Their beer selection was pretty good and they had fried pickles! We've been looking for fried pickles since we left Charlotte so we were pretty excited. After doing some antiqueing we headed back to Statesboro. It was a nice time to get away and just spend time together. Hopefully we can take a trip to Charlotte soon to visit friends and all of our favorite spots.
