MUSHY'S MOOCHINGS: DINNING OUT WITH GOOD FRIENDS IS PRICELESS

DINNING OUT WITH GOOD FRIENDS IS PRICELESS

Saturday was family day with dinner out in Knoxville. This week the Dragons chose Bonefish Grill. It’s a wonderful place on Parkside Drive, in the Turkey Creek shopping area. They seem to have a handle on fresh fish and always have at least 7 selections.

For drinks the ladies chose Beringer White Zinfandel, while the men settled for Miller Lite (btl), Sierra Nevada (btl), and New Castle draft.

Bonefish has a beautiful little bar, but sadly their draft choices are limited to New Castle, Miller Lite, and Samuel Adams Summer. The Knights demand at least Sierra Nevada, Killian, Bass, or some other good pale ale along with the usual domestics. We struggled through 3 or 4 of what they had, so it was not a total loss!

For more on the food choices we made flip over to Mushy’s Cookings!

And yes, even after all those appetizers and entrees, Gary and I ventured next door to MaggieMoo’s for a freshly mixed double dip of Better Batter Cake Carnival! Needless to say, the diet isn’t going too well.

Total tab for the Mushy’s was around $100! But, good food, good beer, and great friends are priceless!

I think I've tried them...I must have not liked them.

Give me a Bass, Old Scartch, or Sierra Nevada and good to go! Even Killian will do.

Looks like a wonderful time. We have a few chilled marble slab ice cream places too. My thing is cheese cake ice cream with heath bar bits worked into it. Woof! Can't do that too often though.

Oh, sounds yummy. I'm way overdue for a night out on the town, a good meal at a good restaurant.

I'm glad you feel like getting out.

HEY!!! Is that ice-cream there? It had better be "Splenda-sweetened"---too much cheatin' can cost ya'!

And I ain't referring to WOMEN, either.....!

(I'll lay down my fully-loaded Hershey-bar, while I work the keys, here!)
