Carol Logan Newbill, the best webmaster in the world and I went to Wintzells Restaurant today at Guntersville, AL.  Carol wanted to order the sampler plate of oysters. I said ok I would share. We also got a salad each. Well when they brought the huge tray of oysters out to put on the table I could not believe them. The oysters were huge and the shells looked like saucers. No way could I get a whole one in my mouth. Most we had to cut in half.

Here is what they were.

Oyster Bienville, made with shrimp, crabmeat and parmesan sauce.

Monterey, made with jalapeno, bacon and monterey cheese.

Grilled, chargrilled over open flame with peppery butter , parmesan and romano cheese.

Oysters Rockefeller , it came with spinach and a butter sauce.

These must have come from oysters on steroids! AWESOME AND HUGE!

Well I bit on something and thought “Oh gosh I broke a tooth.”  I got it out and dropped it accidentally on my plate and it bounced. I thought that sure was funny until I saw it was a pearl. YEP I GOT PEARLS AT LUNCH and was not even dating the person I was with! How funny.  I put it my wallet and brought it home. I must go back over and over again to find enough to make a necklace!
