Visions of Sugar Plums dancing in…..what? Say that again? My visions were a little different. That’s why on Christmas Day, my sister in law, Susie, and I took off for Downtown Rehoboth Beach to walk it all off….The Holidays!!
They say that the average American gains about 8 pounds from Thanksgiving to New Year’s. We were on our way…reaching that goal…yikes!
Walking around Rehoboth Beach is easy, especially on Christmas Day!! You have the town to yourselves. So, off we went to walk off the following:
Christmas Eve dinner consisted of my stuffed pork loin, among other dishes. My last figs were used in the stuffing. Truly delicious and nobody was counting calories.
Christmas morning is always soooo good. You wake up to the aroma of sausage cooking on the stove. This year we even added some of the leftover sweet potatoes.
A new addition was the Turkey Scrapple by Rapa. This scrapple has half the fat of the regular scrapple. Cooked well done…thin and crispy is the best.
The plate was full…a little fruit to make you feel healthier….but please don’t forget the molasses. A must drizzled over the buckwheat cakes!!
Cookies…a present from my neighbor….well, they never hit the gorgeous platter that accompanied them.
Which brings me to the subject of walking around Rehoboth Beach. It was cool but much welcomed weather!! It is that time of the year. Taking a walk on this beautiful coastal town is always invigorating.
The scenic Silver Lake…This lake is one of the 3 crown jewels of Rehoboth Beach. Along with Lake Gerar and Lake Comegys, Silver Lake is one of the fresh water lakes closest to the ocean anywhere in the country.
Going out and About in Downtown Rehoboth Beach, Delaware….have a good one!!

Rehoboth Beach is a great town to walk, jog and just sit on one of the many benches outlining the award-winning Boardwalk. During the summer months this Boardwalk is packed, but on The Second Season, it is a great place to relax and take in that salty ocean air.
Funland is close for the season, but Playland is open!!
Part of the fun whille on the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk is the “boardwalk grub”. Those foods that scream “ice cream”. These ladies were having so much fun and happy to pose, as welll.
At the water’s edge the fun continued.
And on the beach, some were walking their dogs (you can do that now) or beachcombing.
From the north side of the Boardwalk the WWII Towers were clearly seen.
Plenty of weddings take place on the beach….and yesterday, as the day started to wind down….the guests were patiently waiting.
I had to get back to my car….have a good one!!
