Day of the Mother 2020

You think you know how to eat a pear? You do not know how to eat a pear.

This is how you eat a pear:

It has been very nice here lately. We spend lots of time in the backyard. Cornhole champion:

Choke cherry in full bloom (smells so good):

Dinner on the deck. Pesto pasta with roasted cherry tomatoes:

The Bigs have been doing a bit of planting. Eighty-two plants and three trees, to be exact. For once, they did some work and I got to take pictures.

Gives me plenty of pots to use for castle construction:

I have been doing some work too. Mulching:

It was over 80 on Saturday. Hadley has a slip and slide and a fun big brother. I am in love.

Today was, of course, the Day of the Mother:

Day of the Mutter feast (as demanded by the mutter):

Wheat sourdough:

Baba Ganoush:

and hummus, with a spicy walnut topping:

Loving the hard work that everyone put in the yard and gardens, looks beautiful. Kyle and Em, I love the “mutter” day special! Looks delish! Looks like you’re having a blast there, hope to visit soon! Love the blog. I’ll be waiting for more. XOXO

Emmett, good job cracking the whip with those bigs. It’s about time those slackers stoped hiding behind the camera to avoid work. And yes now photography another part of your skill set!
