Cookin' Up Lots

I've been cooking up lots of crafts and food!

I finished my 1st pair of socks knit 2-at-a-time. They're knit in 2 different colors to learn the technique (so you learn to differentiate the two).


We're cookin' up a plan to vacation for our wedding anniversary, and we're excited to spend it in our beach spot!

I've finished my February Lady Sweater. The sweater came out great, not sure if I like the fit though, but it's so soft I'm sure it will grow on me!

On Saturday, after Little Man's swim class, we headed to Barnes and Noble for some book and magazine browsing and some treats from the cafe. It warmed my heart when Little Man said, "I love it here."

Today I got to work cooking and baking for the upcoming trip. We don't want to eat out the whole time we're away, so we're taking a big old cooler full of food that won't keep us from the pool and beach.


Fruit salad


Chocolate chip muffins and coffee cake muffins

Tuna Salad

Need to chop/dice a whole bunch of onion or celery?

Get yourself the Vidalia Wizard!

I got mine after using my Mom's and loving it!


Pasta Salad

Potato Salad

Shrimp in Marinade to be Grilled



Pumpkin Muffins

Fresh corn cut off the cob to be sauteed

Yes, dear readers, we're eaters, and we aim to eat well while we're away. Plus my sister will be joining us so we have to make the trip great so she'll come again...and make the food look good so my Mom will tempted too ;)

Til next time, have a great week!

You are so smart. Eating out does get expensive, not mention it's not really healthy. The food looked delicious. I'm sure it's been eaten by know.
