Montana's Knows Pulled Pork!

My husband and I are big fans of Montana's. We love their pulled pork sandwich. It's just the perfect amount of sweet, salty, porky, goodness.

We decided we would take the kids and go out for lunch this past weekend. It had been a while since we have been to Montana's, so we decided we were due. As I was reading the menu I noticed they had a new pulled pork option on their menu, called the "Pulled Pork Quesadilla".

Yup,you read that right. How exciting! Geniuses I tell you! It is all the goodness of the sandwich packed between two tortilla's stuffed with two types of cheese and then baked to perfection. So yummy.  Seriously, if you are any kind of a pulled pork fan you must try this. I am sure you won't regret it. I am warning you though, you might find yourself wanting and needing this again and again and again!

All in all it was a delicious meal with great service.

It's kind of funny but between dinners out my husband and I somehow seem to forget how challenging it can be with kids. Small children + take out = less  stress.

 What's your favorite restaurant?

A Trip to the Little Red Island aka PEI

My family and I decided to embark on a much needed mini vacation last weekend. Close friends of ours live in Prince Edward Island and with the projection of sunny skies we thought it would be the perfect weekend to visit. The weather was sunny and warm and the beach was stunning.  I don't think we could have picked a more perfect weekend if we tried!

Here are some pictures from our PEI adventure. It truly is a magical place set among red fields, rolling hills, wild flowers and some of the best red sandy beaches encompassed by the beautiful Atlantic ocean.

Going across confederation bridge to the Island.

Love these red dirt roads lined with wild flowers.

My handsome husband/chauffeur! (ha)

Our home away from home (wink)

This is the walkway to the Beach (Lakeside). The kids had a ball building sandcastles and playing in the waves.  At one point we looked out into the distance and saw two porpoises (aka dolphins) swimming. Super cool!

 One evening we drove out to Brackley beach to indulge in some gourmet seafood take-out. The take- out is called Richards and people line for 30-40 minutes (at times) to indulge in the Atlantic Ocean's finest catch of the day. My husband got the Lobster roll and I got the Fish.  Both were very good and served with a side of fancy coleslaw, gourmet dill tarter sauce and fresh cut fries. YUM! 

Another fantastic place to eat is the "Water's Edge" in Charlottetown. It has a newly designed patio by the harbor front with fantastic food, staff and management.

Our days were spent on the red sandy banks of Lakeside beach and our nights roasting marshmallows with the picturesque view of the water in the background. 
One word "breathtaking"!
I don't think I could ever tire of these gorgeous sunsets. A huge special thanks to our dear friends for being so hospitable and for welcoming us all into your home.

We miss you and that stunning view already!

P.S.  We will be back for sure!

My New Addiction.

It began as a small need and quickly grew into a full fledged, "have to have". I felt I could not go on without them......  FISH TACO'S.

Ok so slight exaggeration but..... I really do love these taco's. They are house made and very delicious. I am certainly no stranger to the fish taco, but never had the opportunity to try them. But man am I ever hooked now! I am slightly embarrassed to admit this but, I have had these the last three weekends in a row!



You can find these at the Delta's [Catch] Urban Grill or DJ Purdy's  for just around $13.((DJ's is a bit more casual, we prefer this side with the kiddo's). Kids under 6 eat for free, so this is the perfect place for families who don't want to spend a fortune, but want a great meal.

Adios Amigos!
