Saturday (day 3!)

We got up late on Saturday; the reason for this being, Col had worked through the night up until 4.30am.  While waiting for everyone to get ready, I iced my cupcakes and we (having slept through the time people normally eat breakfast), headed to Chilis for some grub.

After lunch, we bundled back in the car and headed on our merry way to Galveston beach – traffic was mustard, so it took forever.  But once there, we sat in our deck chairs, soaking up the sun, reading and we even swam in the Gulf for a few hours.

I’d impulse-bought some water-bomb-ball things the last time I was in Walmart, I brought them along and the 4 of us battled the waves to play catch – it was great fun! (and even more exercise!)

We decided to eat in Galveston, if we’d waited to go home, it would have been around 9 or so, and no one would have wanted to cook that late at night.  So, we decided to eat in Joe’s Crab Shack.

I’ve only ever been to Joe’s once, I ordered fish and chips and I didn’t like it – so I was a bit reserved about going there.  However, the food was DELICIOUS! I had some salmon with pineapple salsa (which I had to send back cause it was only luke warm) which was delicious and we shared a door-wedge of chocolate cake for dessert.

The best bit about the meal, however, was my drink.  It’s called a Shark Bite and it comes in a bowl as big as my head.  I saw it in the menu and I fell in love!

You pour the shot of ‘blood’ in yourself, and demolish!

It was absolutely delicious – and I even had to wait for the food to arrive to drink most of it cause I was feeling the effects not long after I’d started to drink it! LOL!

That night at home, brought more Britain’s got Talent, and yes, more baking…I’ve turned in to a serious baker at the minute – I even own a piping bag! Who’da thunk?!  I’m still practicing for the perfect recipes for Magz’s upcoming baby shower!
