I did get caught up on my collage-a-day this past thursday but have been unable to post til’ now. This trip is all about the food. We’re trying to avoid chains if we can help it and seek out as much local flavor as possible. Wednesday’s colors of the day were “Egg-Yolk Yellow” and “Biscuit Beige” and I made this collage of our yummy farm-fresh breakfast at the Meaders. Besides the eggs made-to-order we ate biscuits made from scratch with honey and fresh blackberry jam, two kinds of sausage, garden tomatoes, orange juice and coffee. I highly enourage the Meaders to open their Bed and Breakfast soon!

Thursday’s color of the day was BBQ Brown. We ate Southern food for lunch and dinner. I had a hankering for North Carolina Pulled Pork since we Woo’s have a preference for vinegar. Dj already wrote about our lunch at Hillbilly’s which fulfilled all my desires for pulled pork and more! For dinner our gracious hosts took us to Watershed in downtown Decatur where I had the plate of hot veggies: buttery lima beans, black-eyed peas, fried okra, collard greens, and a couple of cooked tomatoes. For dessert we walked in the balmy summer air to the Little Shop of Stories and ordered the most amazing ice cream I’ve had on this trip. Dj had tiramisu and I had Key Lime Piescream.
