Why Is It Raining in the House? Weekend Recap
Guten Morgan this fine Monday. I hope your weekend was a bitchin one and you're ready for a short week. (Or maybe you pup owners are breaking out the Thunder shirts in anticipation of the people who are going to be setting off fireworks for the next seven days. I know we always have people setting them off at random usually starting tonight. I do actually miss sparklers from when I was a kid and conducting a symphony to make shapes in the air burned into your vision.) Friday was exhausting y'all. I had to get some worm spray for a looper worm infestation on my brassicas (who the hell am I??) and whilst poking around the nursery with lightning and looming thunder Thursday night, I spotted a flat of begonias marked down to $10. Given my zinnias couldn't stay in the long planters because they need sun, I had to relent and buy the begonias. Anything to block the sea hag from peeking over. So Friday morning I got to work picking of...
All I can say is those are some awesome recipes for people to enjoy. If you want a real cookout without all the calories and sodium this is the real deal. I am so looking forward to our cookout!!
ReplyDeleteI'm craving those BBQ sliders. I know what we're having next weekend!
DeleteSounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI can't wait to try some of these recipes!
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you do!
DeleteI just recently found your blog and am SO encouraged! I too have tried just about EVERY diet out there, but refuse to get the surgery. I think that your way of approaching this is so common sense and long-term. I have begun to have a similar approach and am having success too. Thanks for putting yourself out there....
ReplyDeleteI look forward to trying these Sloppy Joes!
Thanks so much Carol! Hope you like the sloppy joes and keep up the great work!
DeleteYum! That all looks good. Unfortunatley some of my favorite cook out foods are hot dogs and brats. However I've come to love grilled veggies, pasta salads and fresh fruit. Can't wait to get the grill going!
ReplyDeleteHoneysuckle White has some good turkey brats but they're 600mg sodium. Trader Joe's has EXCELLENT chicken dogs for 60 cals and low sodium.
DeleteRainbow Kebabs with Mango Chipotle Shrimp! That's got my mouthwatering right now!
ReplyDeleteI've gotta say, they're pretty dang good! :)
DeleteLove that Lemon Shake Up recipe! But my favorite cookout food will always be corn. Delicious, sweet corn. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're one of the weirdoes that actually cook out all year long. We'll have 3 feet of snow and it'll be 20 below, and we still grill out on the deck. Once the driveway gets shoveled, we do the deck....yep, weirdoes. =o)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, love the Lemon Shake Up, too...have used that one many-a-time!
ReplyDeleteI always say I'm going to cook out in the winter but we never do. Will have to rectify that this year! So glad you like the lemon shake up. It's one of our faves too!
DeleteI love all grilled foods! Grilled veggies make an awesome cold salad and great leftovers.
ReplyDeleteGrilling rocks! You're right on the leftovers. So good!
