Labour Day Monday... I guess everyone is coming back from were they went this weekend. I had house guests (aka FAMILY), they will have all exited stage left by Tuesday Morning. What a weekend... Family... mothers, grandmothers, sisters, nephews, girlfriends, step-fathers, husbands, uncles, aunts, dogs, cats and even the odd fruit fly was in the mix. Like my fridge magnet says: "The Freak Show without the tent," but who are we without family??? Hmmmmm... well perhaps that question is for another time.
Last night for dinner, it was a create a dish from the left overs in the fridge. Patrik won hands down with his Harvard Beet, Black Olive and Blue Corn Chip Nachos!!! Another budding eccentric culinary genius in the family.
I am finishing up the last of the weekends canning, Delicious Dilly Beans, Diced Tomatoes, six bird stock and Rhubarb Ketchup... Yes, I canned the entire time my family was visiting. We have a few foodies in the crowd, okay my entire family are foodies!!!! My brother's ex-girlfriend once commented: "Every time I have dinner at your families they talk about FOOD....",laughing. Just to show her we don't always talk about food...the next time she came to dinner we had an entire conversation about place mats.
