A Weekend at Home

The Memorial Day holiday has me all confused, so I missed Menu Plan Monday, and my usual recipe on Tuesdays.

We spent the weekend at home, oh was it a glorious weekend.  Lots of playing outside, enjoying the hot weather, playing with the boys and cooking from the garden.

The boys loved playing on the slip n slide.

Our rescued pup Howdy is fitting in nicely.  We found him on the side of the road, and felt so sorry that someone dumped him. He has the saddest face and sweetest personality.  We melted,  and brought him home for my Dad, but yet a week later he is still at our house.  We kinda like him.  He’s fitting in nicely with the other dogs, and has even learned not to chase the chickens.

Speaking of chickens, guess who is broody again?  Sitting on her second clutch since March.  We sold her chicks from her first clutch, shortly after they hatched, so I guess she wasn’t satisfied and decided for a do-over.  We will let her keep her chicks this time around.

We picked tons and tons of garden veggies, and I have been cooking up a storm ever since.

Including a flop on Saturday morning, these German pancakes didn’t turn out at all, yuck!  Still not sure what went wrong, but it went wrong for sure.

But our stuffed bell peppers,

and fried green tomatoes were a huge hit.  Recipes to come soon.

Sometimes weekends at home are the best!!  How was yours?
