My husband had never been to the Maritimes, so we decided to spend a little time there this summer. We all loved PEI. The highlights were the red sand beaches, Green Gables, and a B and B run by a chef in Kensington with great food and personal service. It's called The Home Place and the owner's name is Glenda, and we tried to get back every day for supper, but wished we could be there for lunch too! Not that there was any disappointment elsewhere, but nothing quite compared. Cow's creamery ice cream is as delicious as they say, and reading Anne of Green Gables (abridged version) to my daughter was a real treat. Here's my delightful and filling vegetarian supper and me and my daughter crossing over the walk from Lucy Maude Montgomery's original homestead (I can't remember, but I'm sure the bridge and the river it crossed had a name like Bubbling Brooke or something similar!)

I love when a vegetarian meal actual gives me the protein I need! Yummy! Indoors (it feels like you are at sea) at The Home Place |
