E for Elodie!
That's Elodie Todd Dawson, half-sister of First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln.
Carter Drugs offers Elodie salads and sandwiches, according to the sign out front.
I haven't tried any yet, but they're getting added to my bucket list!
The majestic Elodie Todd Dawson monument is at Old Live Oak Cemetery.
More of Elodie's story can be found HERE.
See more interpretations of the letter E over at ABC Wednesday.

Interesting story. I'd like to have a sandwich named for me! :)
This is a lovely tribute to Elodie! Thank for your E- choice.
Have a wonderful rest of the week.

Great post ~ very creative for ABC ~ (A Creative Harbor)
That is all very fascinating. I think I'd stop there if I was in town.
Pretty name.

Wouldn't you have just loved to know what prompted the "fiery" beauty descriptor?! Definitely sounds like a fun place to enjoy a meal.
Such a pretty name!
Learn something new every day!
That's really cool to have a sandwich to be named after you. I'd like to try the cafe--sounds like a fun place.
