Whirling

It feels just a wee bit like a whirlwind around here at the moment...

AP's
Graduation
Soccer tourney and then the
Trip to Michigan
for J and K's
Wedding!
Getting Coty off to India,
Company
And today M, J, and 
I are off to
Oklahoma for more soccer

Whew!

I told my friend, Amber, that this was going to be a stay at home, rest, refresh, recharge summer.  Well, summer doesn't officially start til June 21st, right!  So, the three r's can start then, yes?  That's my current plan, anyway.

I must say, though, that despite the incredible pace of the last month, I have enjoyed it ALL!  Huge life moments, passages, events that have been full of love, joy, accomplishment, family, fun, friends, and a great deal of food preparation!

So, despite feeling that there's been a lull in creativity in the kitchen, truth be told, I think it's because I've been focusing on mass production!  Lots of food for lots of people.  Hundreds of pinwheel sandwiches, five pies and a pound cake, breakfast for 27, salad for a slew of people, gingersnaps for a busload of boys.

Hence the lack of creativity and the feeling of just getting it all on the table.  Whew, again!


When I get back from Oklahoma, you know where I'm going to land....




Right here!

Phew

I need to hang mine up too

A few too many things going on here and my stomach never likes that.

Enjoy Oklahoma (I always feel like breaking out in song when I see that name :)
