Sweet Tea On The Go

I'm always traveling back and forth to Georgia and love to make sweet tea stops.  So who has my favorite sweet tea?

I confess that yes, I do go to McDonald's.  Nobody has french fries like their french fries!  And their sweet tea is delish!

The price for their sweet tea is $1.00, plus tax, refills allowed.

It's no secret that I love Cracker Barrel and nothing goes better with their Southern style vegetables than sweet tea.

 At $2.19, plus tax, this sweet tea is the real deal.  Refills are poured and I love that they always ask if you want a cup of iced tea to-go!

Oh Lord, have y'all ever tried the sweet tea at McAlister's?  It's phenomenal.  Since McAlister's started their deli in the Southern town of Oxford, Mississippi, I would expect their sweet tea to be good.  They won't share their secret recipe, but they do say that it's black tea, steeped with filtered water in every restaurant several times throughout the day.  Their tea is sweetened with pure cane sugar.  LOVE LOVE LOVE their sweet tea.

 McAlister's sweet tea is $1.89, plus tax and includes refills.

I grew up eating at the S and S Cafeteria.  It's one of Mama's favorite places for lunch and mine too.  

I love everything they serve, but my favorites are their deviled eggs, squash casserole, fried okra, macaroni and cheese, custard pie, and sweet tea.  Their fabulous sweet tea is $1.49, plus tax and of course, they pour refills. 

I'm totally in love with Chick-fil-A.  To begin with, I'm always impressed with the customer service I receive at this fast-food restaurant.  The servers wear clean uniforms and are so friendly and helpful. 

 I have to say that at $1.59 plus tax {includes refills}, I think that Chick-fil-A sweet tea is the best tea on the planet!  Their tea is steeped each day with a premium blend of tea leaves and sweetened with real cane sugar.  The chicken minis are by far my favorite item on the menu...second to their sweet tea!

If all else fails...take your own sweet tea to-go in a mason jar with a cute mason jar sweet iced tea koozie from Incredibly Charming Paper and Gifts.

CHECK YOUR BONANNOS Y'ALL!!!

Lord have mercy! Y'all need to check your Bonannos...'cuz they just might be knock-offs!!! On the Stephen Bonanno blog site, Vivian Benvenuto (I apologize to Vivian, as I previously posted her last name as "Bonanno"--*gasping with embarassment here*) wrote about several stores selling these knock-offs...Read about it here.

Goodness gracious, I purchased these pink and green Bonannos several years ago--I believe from ThePinkMonogram. I just know they are real!!!
I called in the order for these white Bonannos to the Stuart store early last summer and picked them up and paid Vivian herself for these...they better be real! :)
Hop over to the Bonanno blog to check out the story for yourself...if you have questions, Vivian's contact information is included in the post.

This morning I went to church and then The Cracker Barrel for lunch. "HERE'S WHAT I WORE" The 'Spring Fling' pattern shift is by Lilly and the 'Marilyn' cardigan is also by Lilly.
My white Bonannos look very cute with this shift, but y'all know by now that Miss Janice doesn't wear sandals into the sanctuary of the church. So, I wore my 'Magenta Revas' by Tory Burch and carried my Queen Bea straw pocketbook adorned with a magenta Midori-ish ribbon. I wore my pearl stud earrings by Ralph Lauren, my pearl bracelet, and my rollring wedding band by Cartier. My ponytail was adorned with a white grosgrain ribbon, my lipstick was 'Laser Pink' by Chanel, and my fragrance of choice was 'Wink' by Lilly.

My cell phone was in the 'manners mode' during church service, but it still look cute in this hot pink cover...


Thank you for visiting with me today. I'll be back on Monday or Tuesday with photos of a Lilly-fied tablescape...from a 'summer soire on my front porch'!
