I had an absolutely lovely weekend.
groveperson, her DH and DS came over. (That would be Darling Husband and Darling Son, not 'Deathly Hallows' and 'Nintendo DS') I made potato salad and Omuraisu for lunch. The potato salad was SO much easier to make after I went and got a potato masher, Alton Brown and his unitasker-hate be damned. I like cooking for other people much more than cooking for myself, so this was a treat for me.
Then we went to the local Summerfest which took us about 15 minutes to go through, including snacks. DS was a little young for the rides, and though the live music was actually pretty good, we didn't really want to stick around for it. All in all I didn't need reminding I live in Hicksville, but the sign for 'Cinnimon Rolls' gave it a nice emphasis. (Out of 4 signs on that truck for cinnamon rolls, only 2 were spelled right)
Then we headed out to the lake, which was beautiful, only we hadn't remembered to grab things like towels, so we went and played on the swings instead. All adults should play on the swings from time to time, just to keep their hand in it.
It was lovely to see some friends, and nice to be able to play the host for once. I hope we get to get together more often.
Also this weekend I finished 'Strong Poison,' but I'll put that half of the babble under ( a cut. )
