Turkey Breast Dinner

We did get to make the turkey breast. Thank you very much! And I made it in the crock pot!

I put a bunch of baby carrots, celery, and potatoes under the turkey. The turkey I rubbed with a dry packet of Ranch dressing mix. I read a recipe that had the turkey breast in an onion soup mix and I had brought the Ranch packet over with me - so decided to use that. Added a little chicken broth and boy was it good!

With the turkey we had a Pampered Chef Beer bread. I added Parmesan cheese, Italian Seasoning, and garlic. mmmmmm!

Thank you Y for the beer - we continued the tasting with a beer called Shock Top

I'll save you one :)

Your Patio Friend

Mr. Squirrel also visits your house and he was very interested in having his photo captured.

More from the Black Hole

At Target along with flip flops I bought one of those Ice tea pitchers. Its plastic but nice looking.
The colors are bright and springy!




Hopefully the spout doesn't leak like the last one I bought. :)

Happy Easter

Today we had my Dad, Cameron, Jeremy's Mom, and Dad came over for brunch.
We had a delicious breakfast casserole, bacon, turkey bacon, sausage, hash browns, and a tomato/avocado over cottage cheese dish. A lot of meat and carbs but, everything was very very good!

Jeremy found the casserole recipe at allrecipes.com.

The girls enjoyed the company immensely. Thank you for letting us show off your home to our family. My Dad really liked your sun room.

Here is a picture of the tulips Jeremy picked up at Meijer's.




And here are some cookies we made - they look a little lame, but they are tasty enough.

Doggie Facials

No citrus-honey masks here. But I did get out a warm bowl of water and wash cloth and clean their eye goobers. Mindy was very good through the process. Sugar wanted to make sure she was next in line so she jumped onto the chair with us.

I didn't do this the last stay here - I think mostly because I have never cleaned any dog and didn't want to hurt either of them. The warmer water helped loosen the gunk up nicely and pretty soon Mindy looked as good as new.







J took the last 2 of Mindy - they are GREAT!

Our first lunch hour together

Sugar and I had some bonding moments the first Friday I was here. She snuggled on my lap and I took pictures.





What a cutie! and so photogenic.
