Another 'quick' Sunday night post before I head off to bed. I start each week with intentions of publishing my other blog musings but I seem to run out of week before I get around to it! Perhaps I need to do some research about time management...

We attended a surprise birthday party Saturday night for our neighbour so I bumped the menu around - I was going to do the "Frog's BBQ Chicken" tonight but after a very lazy Sunday playing a make-shift round of "Mini Golf" in our basement with TroubleMaker, we opted for fish sticks and KD!

I'm so proud of our wee little vegetable garden! After some very long hours pulling weeds, it looks like we're going to have some yummy harvests afterall! We had a pick of peas and green beans (and a few carrots) last week and this week I'm going to dig up a hill of potatoes and see what's growing under there! I've got tons of dill growing (it grows like a like a weed everywhere in our neighbourhood) so I'm hoping I find a nice bunch of potatoes to smother with butter and dill!
