A Laid-Back Breakfast at the Abaco Inn on Elbow Cay in the out islands of the Bahamas and visiting with friends at our old home on Lubbers Quarters
 There?s no better way to start a lazy Sunday morning that to have breakfast at the laid-back Abaco Inn on Elbow Cay in the Bahamas with old friends. Judy, the manager of the inn and also a friend, greeted our group with steaming pots of coffee and seated us at a large table by the window overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.  Anyone for a Bloody Mary or a Mimosa? Or how about Abaco Inn?s house drink, a tropical rum punch called the Bahama Breeze.  Viola was custom making omelets on the breakfast buffet line and the special of the morning was Bahamian Chicken Souse. Souse is a favorite of locals made with chicken, potatoes or noodles, and celery in a spicy, soupy broth seasoned with fiery bird peppers, allspice, and native lime wedges. Here?s an authentic recipe for Chicken Souse.   Wednesday night we visited our old home on Lubbers Quarters where they had a big dinner in our honor. They say you can never go home, but thanks to our friends, we did. The owners of our old house Lazy Days had a big party for us and as you can see, everyone was having fun.  I want to tell you a story of going to dinner at our old house several years ago right after we sold it. When houses are sold in the islands, they are sold completely furnished and all the new owners have to do is bring their toothbrush and that?s how we sold our home Lazy Days. The new owners invited us over for dinner. As we entered the house, nothing had changed except it was no longer our house. I asked Meakin later if he had a nice time. ?No,? he said. Shocked at his answer, I said, ?Well, why not? They are lovely people and Patti cooked a fabulous meal.? ?He was sitting in my chair.? ?I can understand how you feel honey, it?s his chair now and David paid you plenty for it.? Somehow the story of the chair got out and on this visit (remember, nothing is secret in the islands), David announced that tonight it was once again Meakin?s chair in honor of our visit. The whole evening no one dared to sit in the chair. Here?s Meakin enjoying ?visiting? his chair.   related searches : Laid
