What a great week! We started things off with a surprise 60th birthday party for my dad, and then the fun just kept on coming.
Tuesday, we had our small group over for a BBQ! It was a blast, and we got a great night to sit out on the deck too {read: a break from the really HOT weather}.
Then, this weekend, we had a chance to catch up with some friends from grad school, and that has been a real treat.
During our week, we enjoyed eating:

Hello, I'm stopping by from Organizing Junkie today.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
Your dad looks so surprised! That's so sweet that you blessed him with a surprise birthday party.
You have some wonderful meals planned this week.
The humidity has arrived in Las Vegas. It has me wishing for our dry hot days.
Enjoy your week!
i tried the zucchini mac n' cheese for the first time this weekend and it was delicious! i tweaked it a little by skipping the baking step and blanching the shredded zucchini with the pasta for a minute at the tail end of the pasta cooking time, but it worked fabulously and it was creamy and wonderful. great sauce! the bonus: my better half doesn't like mac n' cheese, so i got to eat it all myself over a few days. sounds like a good deal to me!
ReplyDeleteLots of going on in your house!
