Two Hamptons Essentials

A mid-week trip to the Hamptons reminded me of a few of the best things in life- beachy picnics and lobster rolls. What's a perfect day for me? Well there's sunshine and exercise to start. My hair cooperating makes a difference as well. But even a bad day stands no chance when indulging in an Oceanside spread from Schmidt's. Taylor and I stopped at the crowded country grocer in Southampton to pick up some tasties for the beach. On the list: jumbo shrimp, fresh corn and cilantro salad, broccoli slaw, a turkey & Brie Sammy and of course some chips.
The afternoon was filled with kayaking, swimming and a solid walk along the beach as to ensure there'd be room for our favorite kind of dinner. I don't consider myself the mayo eater of the year but mix it with seafood and I lose control. Lobster rolls at The Lobster Roll are too classic to pass up- not to mention delicious. We also went for a crab cake sandwich, fried puffers and a basket of fries.
When chillin in the Hamptons, Schmidt's and The Lobster Roll are two time tested pit stops that'll keep you smiling all day long.
