Get Together

A nice end to a holiday weekend. It was nice to be back my own bed last night after 5 nights away from it. From weekend festivities in New Hampshire to a trip to a night before wedding celebratory dinner in Maine Saturday night to a wedding in Massachusetts Sunday... this morning was groceries, cleaning up, laundry and getting ready for company... since family was in town for the wedding yesterday we invited them to come see our place, so were anticipating about a dozen people to come over in the afternoon. So I wanted to make some food in case anyone was hungry and also so that we would have something to eat. I made a batch of brownies, cold soba salad with peanut sauce (broccoli, tomato, scallions), salad (arugula, blue cheese, figs, sabra) and some snacks - cheese, crackers, olives, walnuts, dates and made kale chips. And we had a great time having everyone over and eat all the soba and salad.
