Split Peas Please

I have a terrible memory and barely remember stopping at the Black Bear Diner in Shasta Lake, Ca. But I do have photos for proof. Here is Helena and Sarah with a bear.



Andy ordered some chunky chili with red onions and cheese. His chili was insanely thick. TWSS!



I ordered a BLAST. Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado, Swiss and Tomatoes. It was delicious. I am a sucker for BLTs and Club sandwiches at diners. They are usually safe. I got a side of chicken and rice soup with my sandwich.



About 18 hours later, we stopped in Santa Nella, Ca for Split Pea soup at Andersen's. Yes, my mom is wearing a snowflake sweatshirt...



I ordered a big bowl of split pea conjuring up countless jokes about The Exorcist.



And a side salad.



Andy went one step ahead of me and ordered his split pea in a bread bowl. Smart man.



Do you like split pea soup? I love it. It's pretty much my favorite soup ever actually!

P.S. I have had a ton of good luck lately. Some of which I will announce later, some of which I will announce now!

1. Rose made us a photo album! I cannot wait to get it in person! Isn't it gorgeous? And I feel a connection to Rose because I collect crab and lobster things.

2. I won some Chobani love from Janetha at Meals and Moves YAY!

More to come soon!
