Picnic Food
Fri Jun 16 2006

I'm boiling potatoes and leafing through cookbooks today looking for a brownie recipe. I'm supposed to bring potato salad to the family reunion this weekend and I promised one of the clan last year to bring brownies. Time to step up to the plate and honor my word. I have this great big baking pan that I want to make a big batch in. I THINK it will hold a double batch, but I'm not sure. Might have to make some brownie cupcakes just in case I end up with an exess of batter.

The sleeping bags are airing out in the back yard, and wouldn't you know it, the weather is turning all serious summer on us today. I have the house closed up already to keep in what remains of the cool. It's supposed to hit a hundred in the next day or two. Oh joy.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Sunny will like the freedom up there in the hills. There will be other dogs there, a pair of tough little Jack Russels that eat gophers that plague the apple orchard for breakfast, and I'm sure they will put her in her place right away, even though she is 5 times their size.

Well, I better get busy....

    Oh my! I'd love to be there and see how Sunny gets along with the Jack Russels. That's sort of like a hefty breeze meeting up with a tornado.

    Enjoy your weekend.

    Shalom

    Oh man! There you go again talking about some of your yummy baked goods. Maybe I will have to make a trip your way and taste these yummies. Youngest will be living there in the fall going to school, so you just never know. :o)
    Have fun camping!

    Ah, yes, bossy little terrors errr I mean terriers. Chance managed to put 'Pie in her place nicely even though she out weighs him, literally, by 50#

    Enjoy the weekend with family and friends and feel free to e-mail me some potato salad *looks hopeful*

    Why not make two plates of brownies from the double batch, one thin & crisp and the other thick & chewy?
    OK, now I've got the munchies for brownies...
