Shrimp Burgers, Fancy Roosters & Dairy Queen Here I Come

I'm on my way to the Outer Banks in NC, in 12 hours! For those of you who aren't from the South, I thought I'd give you a sneak peak of what's in store for me:

  • Shrimp Burgers – Not so sure about this? Stay tuned on twitter & I'll post some picks of this deep fried delicacy!
  • Fancy Roosters – My mom's neighbor raises fancy roosters. What's so "fancy" about roosters? Find out HERE.

  • Bojangles – For those of you unfamiliar with this mecca of fried chicken, biscuits & sweet tea, let's just say I love it so much that my mom smuggled some onto the airplane on her last visit.

Proof:

  • Big Oak BBQ – The Big Oak is a place like no other & a place where you can get the previously mentioned shrimp burgers!

  • Dairy Queen – How I love you… let me count the ways. I will be hitting DQ nightly — not negotiable.

  • Taking pictures with Vania & Mom in Beaufort, NC, a town that reminds Margie & I of Gatlin from BEAUTIFUL CREATURES.
