Ramsey and I returned last night from a mini vacation at my uncle’s shore house in Ocean City, NJ. It was great to escape from New York for a few days to relax and see family. Looking back, I should have taken more food photos (I completely forgot to get out my camera during our meal at Wolfgang Puck’s restaurant in Atlantic City on Thursday), but here are a few food and non-food photos from the shore.

Shrivers is the most popular candy shop on the boardwalk and they make almost everything in house. They are best known for their salt water taffy and fudge, but I managed to resist the fudge. I ate my weight in salt water taffy and fruit slices, though.
Mom’s potato salad:
Steamers on the porch:
The table set for dinner on the fourth. Burgers and dogs, potato salad, green salad:
In spite of the law, the beach was lit up by sparklers, mortars, rockets, and all manner of other fireworks after nine.
More photos can be found in my Flickr set.
