The strawberry shortcake was super.duper.awesome. Yum! Who knew I could actually make stuff? Interesting! I made the cake, the whipping cream & the strawberry moosh (from berries I picked).
Jim made tiny baked-then-fried new potatoes. This time he added another step- stuffing the top with gorgonzola cheese and then baking once more just to melt the cheese. So yummy!
We spent the evening at Sarah & Stuart's house, with their friend Shannon, and Adam-Melissa-Oscar. It was a great time, filled with additional delicious food. Plus sparklers!
Spending the day cooking is fun, on these random days when we don't have other things taking us away....
Like tomorrow, when we're going to a bike race in Eugene in the morning. Then tomorrow night, we're going to a Volcanoes baseball game. Sunday will be all about the weeds.
Oh, and the best part about 4th of July? Chester is mostly ambivalent about the fireworks. It's a nice change from the days when Brody would eat the doors. Or Sandy would jump in the dryer. :)
