Thank You!

Those of you who helped us move, you know who you are but there will be Thank You notes in the mail in a day or two. We definitely couldn’t have done it without you no matter what you did. These are the postcards I designed and put together. Ronna and I are planning on writing the notes and addressing the envelopes tonight so hopefully we can get the cards in the mail tomorrow.

1804 Erwin Part Two

Well it seems I’m in the full swing of home ownership. Last night I mowed the lawn for the second time and I’ve even cleaned the gutters out already. We got some mulch for the flower beds the other day but we need more. In time we’ll get all those little things taken care of. I can already tell that we’re gonna need some fertilizer and/or weed killer. Dandelions are everywhere. Plans for a deck are in the making. Once I get my tax incentive I’ll include that in the things I want to do to the house. We’re still finding places for everything and we still have a garage full of junk but once all that is taken care of I’ll take some good interior pics for everyone to see.

Sonny Bryan’s

(I didn’t have my camera so the crappy iPhone pics will have to suffice)

It’s been a while since I’ve posted because I’ve been pretty busy. I’m getting ready to close on a house and all my time has been going towards getting ready for that. We had an uneventful garage sale last weekend and have been packing too.

That being said, the real reason for this post is: Sonny Bryan’s Smokehouse. The original one. If you know me you know I’m a little bit of a BBQ snob. I make my own sauce, I have a good grill, and I usually can’t stand other people’s BBQ. So if I say a BBQ place is good, you can believe it. As soon as you walk in you know this place is not your average restaurant. No waitresses, no indoor restrooms, this place specializes in food. The atmosphere was “quaint” or “cozy” or any other word you want to use for tiny. It was a kitchen and some schoolhouse style seats inside and picnic tables outside. Ribs are not supposed to “fall off the bone” which seems to be a qualifier for most people when they’re eating BBQ. I want my ribs to taste smoked and have some flavor and texture and that’s exactly how they were at Sonny Bryan’s. All I had was ribs but next time I’ll try Brisket or sausage and see how it is. So there you have it, my official review of Sonny Bryan’s Smokehouse.
