Food!

Kevin had Monday and Tuesday off to celebrate the fourth, and he used his time to cook up some spectacular meals for the family.

On Monday, ribs that fell off the bone. There were at least three steps, he used the grill and the oven, and it took most the day, but the results were amazing! Served with margaritas for Mommy and Daddy, home made sweet potato fries, and corn on the cobb. Yum!

(This picture was taken before the sauce went on.)

On Tuesday, Kevin outdid himself again. He made whole wheat sourdough crusts for two pizzas. (He's been caring for a sourdough starter for weeks now--so no need to ask what the giant jar of brown goop in my fridge is.) The first pizza was a prosciutto, cantaloupe, and goat cheese concoction. I could probably survive on only this pizza for the rest of my life and still be happy. His second (and more kid-friendly) pizza had pesto and tomatoes from our garden. They both got a quick grilling on our pizza stone outside, and then it was time to dig in. Delish!


I told Kevin that if we hit the lotto he can stay home and cook everyday. He smirked and reminded me that nothing he cooks takes less than five hours of prep....so, it may not be practical, but it was a nice treat.
