Dim sum should definitely be got, yes.

That's a working lighthouse, btw. Useful when you go out on a sunset kayak and are not sure which way is back to the boat launch in the gloaming.

Beth, that hanging bat sculpture is great! The treehouse is pretty cool, too.

I gave my parents one of those hanging bats a few years ago! Different metalworker, I think? [link]

Jeebus, Scola, that's just wrongity wrong with a side of wrong sauce.

My dinner turned out fab, if my husband's reaction was any indication. Grilled lamb chops that had been marinated in Greek olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar and fresh orange juice served with onions, portabella mushrooms, apples, ginger, and garlic, cooked down into a confit, and oven roasted potatoes.

NOM.

I still, however, have no pie. This is probably for the best.

Barb, that sounds delish!

Sounds yum, Barb! Nothing near that tasty but I'm trying out a new beef stew recipe in the slow cooker and hoping it turns out good since it'll be my lunch all week.

I found some pill-form probiotic stuff at Costco today that I'll also be trying. My tummy hasn't been too pleased with anything that I eat for about a month now. Fingers crossed that this'll help.

Beef stew. Basic meat+potatoes and appropriate veggies and spices. (yes veggies included celery all you celery haters)Nothing special but good.

I had pierogis with sauteed cabbage and kielbasa. Nom.

Evil, but at least it wasn't labeled DINAO.

I had no interesting dinner. Was grazing all day and didn't have a real dinner. I did have a bit of asparagus with gorgonzola. The boys just nibbled on various varieties of junk food.

I want chocolate.

Maybe even enough to put on outside pants.

I had some excellent salmon with bourbon-ginger glaze, mashed potatoes, and summer squash, courtesy of my mother.
