Internet Connection Crap.

Check out the post I made earlier about my lack of internet service. Notice there's a comment from Jenny of Embarq (My ISP) who is actually addressing my problem. Apparently, Jenny reads my blog and is trying to help. Or at least let me know what's going on. And after I asked, she assured me she will pro-rate my service this month. Thank you so much Jenny. In the meantime, I've been shagging off F-t-F's service next door. Apparently, the bastard is good for something. Anyways, his "unsecured" connection sucks too, since I keep being kicked out and have to connect over and over again. I'm really suffering from Internet Withdrawal Symptoms. I can't get my email, or at least the way I want to. I'm having trouble blogging. I want my Embarq back. Sad. So sad that this has become my life now. Yesterday, Mr. Hawthorne had a hankerin' for some Major Nachos. So we headed to Lucky 12 Tavern, which, as you can see, offers some kick ass nachos.
By the way, I've never had a bad meal here. And also, I had the most fun at this establishment during the Taste of the Beach Week, when Mr. H. and I went and had all those delicious OYSTERS. The owner, Mark, always goes out of his way to acknowledge me. When we went there yesterday, he was driving out, saw us, and stopped to chat. I appreciate that. He remembers me. And trust me, I'm a totally forgettable person.
Here's my entree. One of the specials today was a salad with grilled scallops and shrimp. The seafood was quite spicy. The coolness of the pineapple was a very welcome touch. Very nice flavors.
Both good meals.
On to Ace Hardware.
And here's little Edith Ann in her chair at Ace Hardware. Oh wait. No. I believe a village somewhere is missing its idiot.
I told Mr. Hawthorne I wanted this chair. "What the hell for?" "So's I can be lifeguard at the pool." Sadly, I don't think I'm getting it. Tonight's dinner:
It's tile fish fillets. Mr. H. pulled out the pin bones with a small pair of pliers. I placed the fillets on foil, seasoned with s&p, lemon juice and slices, parsley, basil, and white wine.
I made little ramekins of blue cheese souffles.
WHOOT! Lookie at my souffles.
Here's the fish, cooked for about 25 minutes.
This was a delicious meal. I poured the orange/soy glaze into a little pool on the plate, then added some edamame, then topped that with baked tile fish and the crunchy, light, flavorful radish/carrot salad. Added a blue cheese souffle with powdered sugar sprinkled atop and sourwood honey drizzled o'er. then accessorized with a prosciutto wrapped date with blue cheese.
