So it's been super crazy busy lartely..... And tragic.... and wonderful all together...
Adding to our normal crazy work/family life we had to deal with the unbelievable loss of a friend just 5 days after she gave birth to a healthy baby boy.... so after trying to help the family, the wake & the funeral last week was totally exhausting... Added to that we were trying to prepair for Master P's Birthday/Baptism party... Lord have mercy has the past few days been tiring!!
So we had the baptism yesterday. Gigi & Papa Ken were in the heezy for the celebration. My whole Long Island crew represented & The Smith's, the Fabro's and a few of my buddys were in the hizouse too! And of course Amy too!!!!!! I think we had enough food....:
fried turkey w/ cranberry ginger & apple chutney, flank steak w/ chimichurri sauce, sausage and peppers, bratts (braised in beer & onions & finnished on the grill, potato salad, pasta salad, white bean & fennel salad... tomato salad, carolina slaw, bread salad, asparagus, roasted veggy antipasto........ wine... beer, iced tea, lemmon-aide..... & of course cake & cawfee!!!! I flexed my kitchen muscle!!
We were blown away by the generosity of everyone.... too too kind!! Master P was great all day. Nothin but smiles all day! He was the star of the show & everyone got a chance to hang out with him!
It poured rain all day, so we couldnt use the yard.... but we did give the new porch a good breakin in!! it worked out awesome! right down to the beer railing we designed! Well I gots to go, when we get the pics I'll get 'em up!
Bye for now!
Peace!!
