(Grits – The Roots)
Our first Alabama restaurant breakfast and, of course, we had to try some traditional dishes. This was at The Sunliner Diner in Gulf Shores, Al.
First Richard’s:
CORNED BEEF HASH – house-made corned beef hash, green and red peppers, sweet Vidalia onion hash browns topped with two poached eggs, horseradish cream and served with a classic biscuit. 
Then mine:
WESTERN SCRAMBLE – Ham, peppers, onions, scallions, cheddar and jack cheese with cheesy grits, fried green tomatoes, and a classic biscuit.
Our meals were delicious. We’ll certainly be returning here another day. Neither of us had ever had grits or fried green tomatoes and we enjoyed both.
I will definitely be including grits and fried green tomatoes in my southern recipes. Fingers crossed 🤞
After breakfast we went shopping at The Tanger Outlets. Heaven! Oh happy day. I was in my glory.

We decided to shop on our own for awhile and, thank goodness, Richard had his phone with him so we could call each other when we wanted to meet up.
I spent the majority of my time at T.J.Maxx, Kate Spade, Michael Kors, and Coach. Great prices and variety. And yes, I bought a few things. But I didn’t buy everything that I wanted. I can show restraint sometimes. 😉 Richard enjoyed finding several gym shorts and t shirts plus a biographical book on Nina Simone. He was a happy man.
A little stop at Starbucks and then home.
I will definitely be going there back.
Nite y’all 😴
Sounds like a couple of great.days! I LOVE avocados but not grits so much!

I was all prepared not to like them. Thought they’d be tough. Tasted to me like cream of wheat.
