My co-worker pointed out the other day that I start a lot of my entries with So....funny 'eh? She just had a son this past Saturday, so congrats to Deb and Dominic and their new son Cohen!
Going back a bit further, On Thursday, Holly went all out, and made Chicken Cordon Bleu, croissant rolls, scalloped potatoes, and corn on the cob. Quite the spread. The Chicken was very tender and tasty. We watched the Searchers. It was OK, there were parts where I thought they drug it out for too long, but over all, it was pretty good.
Moving forward, we went down to Ingersoll Live and had some wonderful smoked meat, right in front of the soon to be open Uncle Wendell's. We ran into Dave, and he was helping Uncle Wendell. We wandered around a bit, and ended up back to get some beef brisket and pulled pork. I love his jalapeño corn bread. Spicy, but not too hot. That, along with some keg Millstream rootbeer...what a dinner...cheap too.
Afterwards, we started to jet, but I was pulled back to their bread, by the thought of the Lemon Blueberry bread. We bought a loaf and headed back to the car. On our way back, we stopped at Chocolaterie Stam and got some gelato (I got dark chocolate and bananas foster, Shannon had dark chocolate and orange stracciatella).
Sunday, we went up to Bob's and met with his wife, and Jim and Gina. Slater was nice and quiet. Bob made some grilled pork and some chicken. Gina made some mac and cheese with some corn in it...it was surprisingly good. I made some PB&C Cookies, and they went over well.
So narrow margins continue, but the roof leak is, finally, with much rain testing, done. Which does remove a lot of strain.
