A Night on the Waterfront

After a week and a half vacation, I’m trying to ease back into the whole “No-longer-on-vacation-don’t-even-think-of-hitting-the-snooze-button” thing. It’s gonna be a slow ease.

Sundays are usually my Errand Day filled with schlepping groceries back from Trader Joe’s, laundry + prepping meals for the week. I always feel better starting Mondays off knowing, for a shining moment, I have things together.

My travel plans threw a wrench into my Sunday routine this weekend when my Saturday flight back to DC was cancelled and the earliest flight I could get was Monday morning.

And for that I am very grateful. Because while I didn’t do laundry (stopped writing mid-sentence to throw my clothes into the dryer) and my fridge is pretty much empty except for a bottle of rosé and some jalapeños, I was able to spend an extra day with my parents, Tommy and soak up an extra 24 hours in the 716.

The best place to go? Lake Erie Waterfront. And to a Buffalo institution: Dug’s Dive.

BECAUSE JUST LOOK AT THIS LOBSTER ROLL!!!

Oh yeah, you better believe there’s crispy bacon bits crumbled on top of this bad boy.

Please note the extreme level of willpower I had to dig down deep + exert to snap a pic because I dug (get it?!) in. Because it was rough.

I’ve had my fair share of lobster rolls but Dug’s Dive is far and above, my #1 choice. You get a lot o’ lobster and a hallelujah chorus starts the moment you take the first bite. Not a dramatization, you WILL hear a heavenly choir.

Between the sailboats, the sunset, the lobster rolls + hydrangea action, I can’t pick a favorite part of my Sunday evening at Dug’s Dive.

But I’ll tell ya, it sure beats laundry ; )
