You may have noticed it has been a little quiet here over the past few days. That doesn't mean the kitchen has been closed - we just had a couple of guests (Jeff's mom and long-time friend) who came out to stay with us and visit for a few days. In between car trips to view the beautiful scenery, the obligatory day at Mall of America and coercing them to paint a couple pumpkins for us, I was quite busy serving up several dishes!
Here's the (short) list of what we've made over the past few days... most of the recipes we have made before, but I did make one or two new ones that are not listed. However, we decided to just enjoy the food with our guests instead of taking photographs of those new recipes! They were good enough to make again and post about though... so I'll try and do that soon.

If you cook like that for your guests, I'd like to be on your guest list! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you didn't worry about blogging every little thing while you had company. Sometimes you just have to be in the moment.
What a great time you probably had with the family. We went to that Mall once during our move. We will be stopping again, next summer, on our way back East. Yes Joe, we are moving again. Maybe this time you'll have time for a quick coffee and I'll bring you a package from the Comox Valley.
ReplyDeleteSue - Very true!
ReplyDeleteHelene - Moving again? Geez! I think you move more than us... hee hee!
That's so funny, I made your Lasagna Soup last week as well! It's a favorite of mine for sure.
ReplyDeleteHooray for Lasagna soup. Ever since you first posted it, its been our favorite, and we've made it several times.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky we are to have been hosted by Jeff and Joe for several days. We enjoyed shopping, painting pumpkins (having been encouraged to use our dormant right brains!), sightseeing and dining on extremely delicious gourmet treats. We would wait in giddy anticipaton as we heard the sounds of pots and pans and smelled the aromas wafting into the living room before each meal. Most of all, it was wonderful to be hosted by dear friends in such a warm, spacious, stylish, comfortable home. Life is good!
ReplyDeleteRobyn - I could eat that soup everyday!
ReplyDeleteDalton - Fantastic!
Gail - I'm so glad to hear you two had a nice time. It was such a pleasure to treat you guys!
Wow, they probably thought they were at a fancy resort hotel with all your great cooking!!
