The drive from Cville to Hillsborough is so much nicer than the drive to Baltimore! All through the beautiful countryside without a lick of traffic. The ride went by so fast!
Lillis Billis greeted us on the porch!
We sat down to lunch with mom and dad.
We brought the bread + dessert and they had sandwich materials and fruit salad plus a platter of radishes, black olives and pickles
I made an open-faced sandwich with tomato, avocado and jack cheese
Dad knew we were coming so he stocked up on pumpkin beers!!!!
Remember when I said we brought dessert? PUMPKIN OH!!
Oh-so-good!
Molly @ RDexposed says
I’m not sure which looks scarier-the first picture of the cat of the skull on the beer bottle.
Molly @ RDexposed says
oops…or the skull**
Khushboo says
Oh my daze- avocado + cheese = heavenly combo…even more heavenly is that dessert!
Mom says
Lillian says she’s really not that scary, but she agrees the skull on the bottle is!
Alexia (Dimple Snatcher) says
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
The Healthy Hipster says
Oh my, that pumpkin oh looks delicious! Pumpkin & Cream > Jelly any day.
Amanda- The Nutritionist Reviews says
Love the cat’s face haha. That fruit salad looks great too!
Amy says
I mean this nicely, but is there something wrong with that cat?
Lynn @ the actor's diet says
That cat and dessert are bad ass.
Mom says
Lilly is so pleased to be called “bad ass.” She’s walking around with extra attitude today!
Hillary says
Looks like the cat isn’t such a huge fan of the camera ; )
Michelle (Peachy Palate) says
I keep hearing so much about pumpkin beer and have never tried it. Sounds so good. I hope I manage to track some down over here!
Mom says
The kitty is very old (17), but she perked up when Kath and Matt got here! (She might not look perked up in the picture, but she did perk up a bit!)
Julie H. of Spinach and Sprinkles says
Aw! That cat steals my heart! I want to pet it!!! ….Pumpkin beer AND a pumpkin roll- now that’s what I’m talking about! 🙂
Ali @ Peaches and Football says
Mmmmm pumpkin roll! One of my favorite desserts growing up was plain old pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting. Mom would make them each Fall and it’s probably one of the reasons that Fall is my favorite season. Anything pumpkin is good!
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
I LOVE meals like this! We do this type of meal every Friday with the boys as a little tradition now. Nothing better than family style build your owns! The pumpkin oh looks amazing! No wonder people are going nuts over it at the bakery!

B n B says
Is the dessert from the bakery? Looks great.
That cat looks so adorable.
Brittany @ Pretty Fit, Pretty Healthy, Pretty Happy says
I’m going to turn orange by the end of fall from all the pumpkin I’ve been eating. And I’ve seen that pumpkin roll-up cake everywhere! I need to try to make some ASAP. While drinking pumpkin beer… of course. 🙂

You just reminded me how much I love radishes!!! I haven’t bought then in ages…. why do we sometimes forget about foods we really like? hahha They are so spicy and crisp! yumyum
And holy moly that pumpkin roll looks AWESOME. Good dessert pick! 😉
Katelyn@ Foodie Goes to School says
Does GH make the pumpkin oh?! Or did you make it?! AM I MISSING SOMEHTHING?! I WANT ONE!
J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) says
Aah, that sandwich looks so good, but as always, needs a top! 🙂
Love Lillis Billis. She is SO cute.
Diana @ frontyardfoodie says
I am not ashamed to say I could literally eat that entire fruit salad bowl. Not joking. And I want to.
Racheld says
What did you and Matt think of the Harvest Time? I liked it when I had it on tap but not at all when I got the bottles.
Kath says
Thought it was good!! Nice spice 🙂
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
That pumpkin roll looks so good! Kudos to whoever rolled it – I made jelly rolls in my Food Science lab last year and they were tough to roll!
JenATX says
i’m curious, do you just pick up the radishes and eat them? i’ve never tried that.. looks interesting!
KathEats says
with a little sea salt, yes. They aren’t really very good!
Amanda@RunningOnCoffee says
i’ve bought radishes before… my husband really likes them, they are a little too bitter/spicy for me. Maybe I haven’t bought them at the right ripe-ness or something?
Anna says
Awww the kitty is so cute with her tucked-in paws!! 🙂
Mmm bread with seeds- those pumpkin seeds look so crunchy and delicious.
Meghan @ Day-to-Day Crazy says
Avocado on sandwiches, so yummy! Wait, who am I kidding… avocado on almost anything is delicious. 🙂
Danielle says
I Love that you got a hold of my local brew from Blue Point, Long Island! 🙂 And a pumpkin one at that!! If you wanna try another really great pumpkin beer, Shipyard’s Pumpkinhead is a personal favorite of mine this season. I think you’ll really enjoy it!
Koko @ KokoLikes.com says
That cat is AMAZING I am dying, it’s like he has little lipstick on!!
Heather says
Ugh! I get irrationally annoyed when people make mean comments about Lillian!
