Good Food, Good Fundraising and Good Fishing

That's what my weekend was all about. Friday night was the Relay for Life here in Selma where they ended up raising close to $70,000 (not too shabby). I went to support the Vaughn Regional Radiology Team and of course to eat some good cookin'. I am not normally a spicy foods eater but I love crawfish. They still can't be really hot, but that good Cajun spice flavor...oh man! I ate until my lips felt like they were on fire. Even my chin was burning. And yes, I had heart burn all night long but it well worth it.

Saturday morning Brad and I headed to the river for some fishing. He caught 2 nice ones. The one fish I caught all day was just a tab bit shorter than the worm I was fishing with. We are "practicing" for a Department of Public Safety Tournament in a few weeks. It sure would be nice to win braggin rights there. And it's for a good cause too. Remember the shooting in southeast Alabama back in March? Geneva County Deputy Josh Myers lost his wife and child in that killing spree. The tournament will raise money for him and his family.
Lunch Saturday was THE BEST! I would have to recommend that if you are ever passing through Autaugaville, AL, stop and eat at Chef Lee's. It doesn't look like much and if you blink you'll miss the building, but the food is wonderful. I had a bacon cheese burger...and the heavens parted and I could hear angel's trumpets. Meat, cheese, tomato, lettuce, bacon, onion, ketchup and mustard all squished between two soft warm buns...man, my mouth's watering again. And just a little tip - don't try to eat it at 70mph riding down the river either; you'll get ketchup and mustard smeared from your lips all the way up to your ears. I know this for a fact!
Hope y'all had a good weekend too.
