Recent Happenings

1. Having friends over.  We love having visitors. Here are some pictures that I never posted of Warren and Alyssa from when they came over for a sushi dinner the other week.





And Ginny came to meet Charlie on Sunday!  It was so great having her out for the afternoon.  ***Speaking of visitors, we can't wait for Grandma Kate and Grandpa Paul to arrive today!! They'll be here for a week.
2.  Pat using his Big Green Egg smoker.  He made some delicious spare ribs on Sunday.

3.  Enjoying some beautiful flowers.  Ginny brought out these gorgeous hydrangeas. (thanks!)
4.  Having a tasty breakfast.  I love the Peppridge Farm cinnamon swirl bread toasted up with some butter.
5.  Trying out new recipes.  This chicken casserole is from the Cooking for Real show with Sunny Anderson on Food Network.  It's made with boiled chicken, thyme, rosemary, onions, mushrooms, cream, cinnamon, brown sugar, wild rice (made with chicken stock), gruyere cheese, and breadcrumbs.  I had to leave off the cranberries that are part of the recipe because I couldn't find them canned, frozen, or fresh at the grocery.  Picture doesn't look too good, but it was delicious.

And it has now come to my attention that my life revolves around Charlie and food.  :o)
