BBQ, Brunch & Blogger Meet Up

Hello! How has your weekend been? Mine has been busy,  but mostly good! Josh’s Parents and  Brother have been in town and we’ve been spending a lot of time with them. They took Josh back to the doctors on Saturday and he has some more issues going on with his ankle, so we’ve been laying a bit low to give him time to rest.

Saturday morning, I taught Body Step and Pump and both Lindsay and Shannon came to class. So fun to have them both there! A little while ago I won a Jay Robb giveaway on Lindsay’s blog and should brought me the goods. Look at all that protein (wahoo!). The prize pack also came with bars, a shaker and mixer ball and a hot Jay Robb tank. Lindsay and I have plans to rock our tanks together sometime soon. Thank you Lindsay and Jay Robb!!

Saturday also involved a trip to Charleston’s Cafe and Home Team BBQ on Sullivan’s Island. Since Josh’s Brother and Dad had to hit the road pretty early (Josh’s Mom is hanging around for a bit to help take care of Josh), the two meals took place a little close together for me…so I ended up mostly just being a spectator.

  The inside of the restaurant has very cool decor. It looks like a great combination of an Island-y Grill and an old school BBQ joint. Josh ordered the pulled pork platter with macaroni and cheese, cucumber and tomato salad (for me) and a corn muffin:

The restaurant also provides multiple sauces to choose from:

Everyone really enjoyed their meals.

This morning, I met the other Charleston Bloggers for a meet up at Fat Hen on Johns Island.

The restaurant serves water in jars, which I absolutely love:

And they have great old school diner coffee mugs:

Weeeekend 016 I was really in the mood for scrambled eggs, so I got some (and they were creamy and fantastic) with a side of fruit and a million cups of coffee :)

Amelia’s husband was nice enough to serve as our professional photographer outside the restaurant. The ladies: Blair, Lindsay, Amelia, Christina & Myself:
