Breakfast for dinner always works.

I love breakfast for dinner. Years ago, there used to be a small restaurant I'd pass by, on my way home from work. It had 24-hour breakfast menu. Sometimes I'd go there and get bacon, eggs, and toast after 6 PM. Yum!! Breakfast for dinner!!!

Easter Feaster at mom and pops...!!!!!!!

For appetizers, spicy black bean hummus, salmon spread, French onion dip, crackers and veggies...!!!
For meats, there was smoked lamb, brisket, and sausage, and roasted pork tenderloin.
Sides were coleslaw, tater salad, broccoli salad, and corn.
I can't remember all the deserts, but, I opted for the Dutch Oven peach cobbler that pop did in his smoker...!!!!!

Family Feaster Fun...!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG!!! This spread even outdoes others from the past! Holy cow, your parents add a whole new dimension to family dinners!! (Drooling over my keyboard here . . .)

I had to double take, because almost looked like Strawberry tamales.

I didn't know this was a thing, but i definitely need strawberry tamales now!!

No way he's getting his own ham steak. The package has 2 in it. We'll each slip him a bite of ours, and that's it for the Easter dog.

Somebody should turn you in to the ASPCA asap

It's snowing. We have a 2 hour delay and may yet close

Tonight's dinner groundhog mac and cheese

Yak & Yeti or Flame Tree?

Yak and yeti has several veggie options and unfiltered saki

Ok, it’s Easter.. and I should be following Jesus’ footsteps.. but.. I’m going to rant.

Remember the woman who bought her son all of the gear that I said T wanted, and called T’s soccer coach, etc etc etc?

Well I was just scrolling thru my newsfeed liking everyone’s Easter and Passover photos.. annnnnndddd.. I come across her’s.. photo of her son “(name’s) new soccer sandals!”

O. M. G.

Literally 2 weeks ago, during the same jersey convo, I mentioned that T needed new soccer sandals.. she asked what a soccer sandal was.. I told her. Then I joked that I was sad that T wanted Under Armour sandals, bc I don’t think UA belongs in soccer, I don’t want them stepping on Nike and even more so- hurting Adidas more than they are.

So guess what sandals are in his Easter basket???

If you guessed UA soccer sandals, you’d be correct.

This is so ridiculous!!!!!

I'm immature so I'd start talking about something the boys wouldn't like and how T is so excited about it and you can't wait to get it for his birthday. And then see if she gets that thing, lol

I was going to say just stay clear of her but I'm now leaning towards @dryerlintfan's idea.

One can never have enough Star Wars...well, maybe The Last Jedi.

T received a copy of The Last Jedi in his Easter basket.. we just got home, changed into pjs.. and about to start watching it. I’m excited to see it again!

I miss the days of Easter basket excitement. Now it's just one basket a couple of movies, a single candy for each of the guys and it's lined with a small piece of spring fabric for me. That being said one of the movies was TLJ. The boys saw it in the theater and I saw it for the first time last night. I may have to watch it again this week to see how I feel about it.

And it's snowing!

Sympathy like.

Your mom really knows how to feed people. You may have answered this, but is your dd's upcoming little bundle the first great grandchild?

And it's snowing!

I woke up to about 4 inches of compacted snow. We had rain mixed into it. Schools are not delayed or canceled here, so the roads can't be bad. Dh just left and his car didn't seem to have an issue going down the driveway, or driving our unpaved road. It should melt though since it is getting to 47 today. There is a little snowflake in the forecast for Saturday now.

 

[MySmallWorldof4]

I tend to favor Yak and Yeti myself.

Havent had a full dinner/lunch on Flame Tree thou.. (only passing by to check the offers)

Yak and yeti has several veggie options and unfiltered saki

I am now considering Satuli Canteen also. I think we will decide on that day. I will let ds decide since he is the pickiest. We have done Yak & Yeti and have the Landry's "seat me now" pass. We get the AP discount there too, but we get that at Flame Tree as well. I guess we will play it by ear. But yet again, I CANNOT BELIEVE IT IS SNOWING!!!!!

How are there any groundhogs even left after the winter we have had? I would have thought that you cooked them all.

We had about 3 inches of powdery snow on the car this morning. The roads were all clear though, and it's supposed to be 50* later today. And in the seventies tomorrow!!

My trees started flowering over the weekend. I guess that sight of Spring was just Ohio's April Fools joke on us

70's? We are supposed to get only to 55. I don't see a 70 degree day in our future forecast until May! All 40's and low-mid 50's all week. Lucky you! Maybe all the Robins that are here should have flown to Ohio. They all look quite confused. Lucky for them we have filled the bird feeders.

The next one is. 153 x 101 cm. And 5000 pieces.

We do puzzles too!! Those 5000 pc ones take awhile!

 

[93boomer]

Good morning! We had a wonderful weekend at our DD and SIL’s! We went out Saturday night for dinner. It was awesome! I had the Parmesan crusted chicken with green beans and mashed potatoes. Ohh my!! DH had the pecan crusted fish. He loved it.
On Sunday we stopped by the NC Zoo on the way home. We saw lots of animals.

We have had to build a new top for the kitchen table. The old one wasn't big enough ...

Haha we use our kitchen table. We used to use the coffee table but it got too little. My MIL has a collapsible puzzle board she can extend to do hers!
