Rainy Day Sailing
Charleston often has afternoon showers in the summer. The beauty is, these showers only last an hour or so and then the sun comes right back out to say hello.
The dinghy ride out to the sailboat at the mooring...
You too can get out on the water while you are visiting Charleston. Take a boat ride out to Fort Sumter Island and tour a piece of American History. The tour will pick you up 3x a day from downtown Charleston or 2x a day from Patriot's Point. Tours are $18 for adults and $11 for children. Click here to visit Fort Sumter Tour website or give them a call to make reservations 1-800-789-3678.
Dog Still Loves Boat...
We've arrived home and to a one-legged bird...
Signed,
A Very Happy Charleston-er!

Panini Grill Vegetable Love
This recipe literally only takes 15 minutes from prep. to plate. I love my Breville panini grill from William Sonoma. Only $119.95 now, on sale from $170. Faster than an outdoor grill or the old oven. I love to make quick grilled asparagus in the morning with some eggs or as a side to dinner.
This recipe is an eggplant and roasted red pepper layered dish with dabs of ricotta cheese between.
Voila!
Throw some red or yellow peppers on the panini grill with a little oil (I use safflower oil). Peel your eggplant and slice into thin pieces.
Salt the eggplant to let it sweat a little before grilling.
Throw the eggplant on the panini grill and coat both sides with oil.
Remove the skin of the roasted red pepper ( you may be able to peel it right off or have to place the red pepper in a dish covered with some plastic wrap and let sit 5 minutes in order to peel)
On a serving dish, layer roasted red pepper, ricotta cheese and your favorite tomato sauce, then eggplant and repeat. Garnish with more ricotta cheese, scallions and sun dried tomatoes.

Picnic in the Park
There are great parks in Charleston with lots of shade to gather some friends for a picnic. White Point Garden (otherwise known as the battery), Waterfront Park, and Marion Square to name a few. I love going to Marion Square for their Saturday farmer's market. (April through December)
This picnic backpack has everything you need, you won't be unprepared. These come fully stocked with a cutting board, cork screw, plastic wine glasses, silverware, and the back is a cooler. You can purchase these at redenvelope.com.
Of course our names are on our backpack too! Wouldn't want to lose this!
