A place to sit, Aruba

This may be a place to sit and think, or… just a place to sit. Take a look:

A place to sit, Aruba.

There are several spots like this in Aruba, places where you find the unexpected juxtaposed for your amusement or practical use. It all depends on what you’re looking for. Sometimes you find it, sometimes you don’t, and sometimes you find what you didn’t know you were looking for. So, keep your eyes open.

Beam on the Beach, Aruba

Certainly Jim Beam is a fine bourbon whiskey and Palm Beach, Aruba, is a great stretch of sand. Why not enjoy them both at the same time?

That’s a fine combination when done in moderation or just a little bit more. Do you have a favorite drink for the beach? Bon dia.

On the Griddle, Aruba

Just got back from an early morning visit to the gym and it was time to refuel. Loaded up the griddle with some of my breakfast favorites, a couple of fried eggs, pepper jack cheese on top, grilled tomato, and some sautéed asparagus for contrast and wacky taste. Here’s the photo:

Add some turkey bacon, glass of juice, half a gallon of water… you’re all set. That little griddle has served me well, cooking breakfast and other meals for more than four years now. I did away with the full-size stove. It threw too much heat into the shack. Better to have a grill outside and this little Presto number on the inside. Efficient, inexpensive, perfect. Eat well. You’re worth it!

Scott’s Brats, Aruba, redux

Sometimes you just want simple food. Stuff that makes you full, scratches and itch, brings back the old days and makes you happy to be with your friends today. Yeah, comfort food. That’s what Scott’s Brats is to me and that’s why I linger there like a stray cat that’s been fed on the back porch. So, let’s look at one of those brats with onions, eh?

Now here is a brat with just about everything.

Yeah, one of those two will fix you up where you’re broken down. Here’s a look at the menu. Very affordable prices for Palm Beach, Aruba.

And finally, check out the view from Scott’s looking to the palapa huts, Palm Beach, and the Caribbean beyond. Yeah, there are worse places to chow down. Bon dia and enjoy your meals!
