Shopping was fun! Gram took us to Loehmann’s, which has killer discounts and sales. I got a dress for the summit! And a cute clutch to match.
But boy did we come home worn out! We ate lunch at 2PM and were all so hungry that we couldn’t stop saying how delicious the food tasted.
We put out a spread of leftovers from the cocktail party last night.
Shrimp
Crab dip
Smoked salmon, which we are all WILD about!
Brie
Grapes, carrots + crackers
I assembled some salmon + cream cheese rye breads, a cheese + half cracker, a crab dip rye bread and a pile of shrimp
And the healthy stuff 
A little diet Ginger Ale
Go Orioles!
Still not sure if I’m even full yet – I was hangry!
In grandmotherly fashion, Gram brought out some yummy looking cupcakes for dessert
Larbs and I split one, and it was surprisingly very good!
We are going mall walking and resting before we’re meeting the rest of the family to head into Baltimore for dinner.
Have a great Thursday y’all!

I love love love smoked salmon. Some of my best memories from growing up are of bagel breakfasts with chewy toasted bagels, cream cheese, and lox with my family. So good!
I loveeee the leftovers you get the day after a party. Yummy treats you probably wouldn’t normally get for lunch, plus you don’t have to cook!
sounds like a great day! Leftovers look fantastic and GO GRAMS on providing the cupcakes!
Now THAT is a great way to enjoy leftovers! I love tasting-plate meals.
That cupcake looks to die for!!!!! YUM!

Super cute napkins! That brie looks amazing.
It looks like you are having a great time (and eating well, too!)!!!
That cupcakes looks like something I need in my mouth right now!
What a cute lunch set up!! Yay for grandmothers!
Wow! Holy food porn on that brie! mm-mmm
I love brie! Mmm, actually I love all cheeses. Fresh mozzarella makes me swoon a little
Sounds like you had a good lunch – food tastes best when you’re hungry!
The lunch spread looks fantastic. Love Brie! But then I like it totally UN-healthy when it’s baked in pastry with some luscious fruit sauce.
Have a great time in Baltimore w/ family.
MMMMM….a lunch full of seafood is my kind of lunch. I absolutely love smoked salmon and just might have to buy some this weekend.
Isn’t visiting with family fun?
Glad you enjoyed shopping. Another great mixture of foods… love the crab dip!
What a great spread!
Yum, finger foods are the best! A little of everything = heaven.

Seriously…those are like ALL of my favorite foods! I would have GOBBLED the entrie brie wedge and smoke salmon slices! Yum!
Yum! Any way you can share that crab dip recipe… I’m looking for a good one from a fellow Maryland-er
Yum! I love all the little tastings you have on your plate. Wile salmon is the best with a little cheese on top of crackers
I love Loehmann’s! I’m such a sucker for deals on clothes it’s bad!!

Yummy looking cold dinner! I enjoyed a smoothie-in-a-bowl for dinner since it’s 105 here and fridge is almost bare.
Wow, somehow I totally missed that you were in Baltimore. So cool! Baltimore is my home away from home. We live about an hour from the Harbor and love to take this day trip often.
Hope you are having a blast. How long will you be staying? Are you staying through the weekend by chance? Any blog meet ups planned? I would love to come and visit you!
I hear y’all on the seafood! Glad you enjoyed the cupcake too. I totally have “Good Morning Baltimore” from Hairspray stuck in my head now
i love loehmanns – i got my wedding dress there for $40! it cost more to alter it!
ahhh LOVE the family meal. Those are really the best meals to be had, and honestly great company makes food taste better, not just feeling hungry! hahahah

That’s my favorite kind of lunch – a random assortment of leftovers! Yum!
What gorgeous cupcakes! Did your grandmother make them? If so, she is quite the artist!
Oh, my husband would die over that O’s napkin. He is orioles obsessed-his #1 all time team which is weird since he has lived in NC all his life. Go figure!
