Woo - Busy!

Let's see, we finally got around to assembling the trampoline. What a frickin' nightmare that was. Actually let me extrapolate on the nightmare it was - FOUR hours of pure hell. Well, maybe not that bad but I woke up sore this morning. That should tell you something right there. The kids of course were delighted and had no idea about the suffering that their father and I had to endure to bring such smiles and bouncing in to their lives. I don't remember having such luxuries when I was their age. I hope the appreciate it - yeah right!

Then, we went to the first of two parties this weekend which took place at a park Saturday Morning. Then we hosted a party for my sister and as per her request, I cooked her favorite dish of authentic fettuccine carbonara. I also made bruschetta with heirloom tomatoes I got at the farmer's market and basil from my garden along with fresh green beans and salad also fresh from my garden. It was a nice feast.

Finally, last night after assembling the trampoline, I dredge up just enough strength to make grilled rosemary lamb brochettes, collards from the garden with bacon, caramelized onion focaccia and roasted garlic fingerling potatoes. For dessert I made a Babcock peach cobbler with peaches I picked up at Saturday's farmer's market.
