Weekend of friends

Our friends James and Stacy came to visit from Phoenix. It was perfect timing to make Jalapeno grilled goodness from my LA friend Rachel's friend's blog. It's jalapeno with cream cheese and garlic and a sausage all rolled up with bacon. Read how to make them here.

One note on the Jalapenos- don't wipe your face while you prep them! I felt like I had a major sunburn for about an hour last night.

I forgot to take a picture of us eating them- but here is one of us eating french toast the next morning!

Look at these beautiful carrots!

Nick watched our friends' cat last week while they were in New York getting engaged. In exchange they gave us their farmers box including these beautiful purple carrots!

Congrats Steven and Jessica!

A visitor

Our friend James is in town so we took the ferry to Bainbridge Island, rented kayaks, went to lunch and on our way home we stopped by Poke Place to get ingredients for a caprese salad.

Soup!

My friends made carrot beet soup topped with mushrooms

This takes me back...

I'm having a reunion with my old students and they get to decorate these!
