Pew

AH!

A fine salute from the Captain. Good to hear from thee!!

Your place is always set here at the Kate.

Glad to be of service. Mister Lasseter's, by the way, is looking a bit ragged as of late.

The chandelry should set it to rights. Any word from the Lucy's Captain lately?

Sirs hammock is ready.

Aye, and a curly straw to boot.

New Orleans Planter's Punch, served.

Supper anyone?

The place seems a bit empty, mayhaps the smells will tempt others . . .

Beef Ribs with an Espresso/Chile Rub

Fire Roasted Potatoes & Chilies

Rotisserie Grilled Onions

Brazilian Cheese Bread

A departure from the usual morning biscuit.

Fontina stuffed bacon wrapped dates,

paired with a cup of the blue mountains.

Morning all.

Breakfast is available outdoors this morning.

Yes, it was a long night.

Even so, coffee and bacon is ready this morning.

Ah. Sir's "desserts" are ready.

Sir's room is ready.

The previous occupants have . . .errr . . . moved on.

Bacon wrapped turkey is served.

Ah yes, the grills are fired early today. The lunch special:

Lamb Kabobs with mint pesto

Early brekkie here at the Kate:

Coconut French toast w/grilled pineapple salsa Citrus blush

In this deep sea genre, (of which I feel a story is brewing or stewing as the case may be), Takoyaki is served with a delicious Asahi

Dinner?

Grilled Mahi Mahi with Ginger and Wine served over Asparagus spears

The conversation alone could make lesser men (and women) faint upon entry.

A long day for myself today. I think a fine 23 yo Ron Zacapa paired with a Paul Garmirian Gourmet Series cigar will set the evening to rights.

A late sup mayhaps.

Thankee William kindly . . . The time afforded brings a mere smile . . .

Dinner special:

Key West Paella

A Sierra Nevada paired with the offerings . .

Excellent.

I shall move in my things this afternoon.

In the meantime, lunch is served.

Panko-crusted Crab Cake Bites with Roasted Pepper-Chive Aioli

And a Heavy Seas triple hop infused IPA to wash it down.

:dusts Christine's picture off:

Welcome back.

Welcome lad.

Wallowin' 's not wot we do round 'ere. We call it . . . . mutiny. There's a cutlass under th' bar and brace o' pistols by the door . . .

Good morning all. Breakfast is served.

Gallo Pinto and plantains.

What kinda pirate are you?

One that has remained alive for 38 years.

William tends to have bottles of non-descript libations about. Privy to these, I'd like to offer thee a sample.

Ah, the plot thinnens.

In the meantime, the help was able to scavenge up some brekkie.

William, any need for a barkeep at present?

I think beating around the bush and a traipse straight through it is necessary to clear the air for those of us unfamiliar to the story.

Please.

I'll buy this round.

Cap'n Brand:

Any coffee brewing about? I can see that our proprietor is clearly entwined with bales, monkeys, a priest, and a Frog, which may or may not be a Frenchman.

I'll grill up a few bacon and egg biscuits in the kitchen.

Coffee?

:shakes head:

Another pint while the conversation lulls please.
