He Who Likes Virginia Better Than The Virgin Islands is returning to the Old Dominion tomorrow to rake leaves, clean gutters and turn on the heat. Since we wont be seeing each other for a while, we took a vacation day yesterday and hopped a car ferry to St. John...
Breakfast was at Sam & Jack's. I was starving and hastily ordered the 'Skinny Leg' $10 House-Made Roasted Garlic Hummus, Arugula, Roasted Beets and Alfalfa Sprouts in a Wrap. I added Artichokes, but the thing didn't strike my fancy. Wont be getting it again...
we then drove east towards Coral Bay and met a very friendly Goat who agreed to eat the rest of my Wrap...
what a sweetie. Wish I could have taken her home, but she wouldn't be able to roam freely on our property without potentially falling into a rocky ravine...
lots of beauty and tranquility...
more Goats manicuring the baseball field...
lunch was back at De Coal Pot. My Painkiller $8 was not as great, or strong, as the Rum Punch I had there two weeks earlier...
but the 'Veggie Delight' $14.95 was even more fantastic. We spoke to the chef who is from the Dominican Republic and she said the Patties are made of Beans and Flour and topped with Creole Sauce. There has to be more involved because they are so tasty...
a better photographer would do justice to these...
picked up dinner at The Little Olive which is located near the car ferry dock...
they supposedly have a vegan daily special, but just didnt have it yesterday...
so I went with the 'Little Olive Plate' $8 Hummus, Olives, Locally Sourced Greens, Homemade Pickled Veggies and Pita. Very nice. This place is cash only, but they dont use styrofoam so yay!
almost home, a block from our house we saw a Red Footed Tortoise crunching on some leaves. He/she stopped eating to wait for me to go away...
