Two Kitties on my street are my favorites! First is Mouse. 
He is a sweet small boy who was in love with my dog Navin. Navin is no longer with us but Mouse visits every once in a while.
If I see paw prints on my car, I know Mouse has been there.
One reason he visits less is my next door neighbor’s cat Punkin, has adopted me.
She is a Manx and a sassy little kitty! 
Sometimes I will come out to my Screened Porch to see this…
She is beautiful!
I googled “best veggie burger in Atlanta”, Grindhouse Killer Burgers came up a lot. I thought I should try them out for veggie burgers. (I have have had the meat variety and it is very good, french fries are okay)
It is a great looking burger of the black bean Quinoa version of a veggie burger. It was good, but not the best, in my mind. I have a problem, I have the memory of the best veggie burger ever. It was many years in college, a SunBuger. Would it be as good today?
I am on another quest, I will find the best veggie burger in Atlanta, while trying to create one in my kitchen. I will keep you posted.
Why can’t a butterfly be a dad?
Coop loves this stuffed duck.
He loves carrying it around with him outside!
Earlier this week, I decided to try to grill salmon on cedar planks. It wasn’t as smokey as I hoped but it was extremely moist and yummy. I had some leftover salmon and leftover cheese grits (made with parmesan cheese and red and yellow peppers onions and jalepenos).
So, I thought, put them together and make a salmon grit cake. I used some bread crumbs and put a tiny amount of oil in the pan. 
I served it with a tomato…
It was delicious.
Really, it’s Gus’s World Famous Hot and Spicy Fried Chicken. So, I was driving by and whoa, how could I not stop?
(The parking lot was packed when I first drove by.) My waitress was super nice. Here it is the truth, this chicken is REALLY GREAT!
It carries the perfect amount of heat. It comes with cole slaw and baked beans but you can substitute a bunch of other sides, mac and cheese, fries, collard greens, fried okra etc…
Apparently there are 3 locations in Atlanta, downtown, Chamblee, and Sandy Springs. This is going to be craveable. It is so, unbelievably good!
I love great trees, but I really love great trees with Spanish Moss on them.
I was going to blog about Bradley Cooper being my copilot. I took these photos and threw some of them out… here are a couple.
Not too cute huh? Too much air in his eye.
Just a little too close and he looks a little crazy. (usually so photogenic)
You gotta love him though! Thanks for riding with me! (We are working on a new project!)
