Robin's Nest

 Each year we try to make less so there isn't as much leftover. This year I saw a really good sale on plastic containers $2 for a set of 24 varying sizes, from 4ounces to a half gallon. I purchased enough to pass around to the hostess and guests so that clean up could go quickly and everyone that wanted to take food home would have containers to do so. Somehow, I still ended up with the majority of the leftovers. The deviled eggs started out on a rough note A bit too soupy Boy did the grandkids and great grands grow a lot!  I swear that boy was just a boy last summer! SIL was in a good state for most of the day The great granddaughter didn't sit still long enough to get any good photos, but she has gotten so much taller too. She is the little one jumping off the bar stool. She will be 5 in March, hard to believe! It was a smaller group this year as some of the "adult" grandkids didn't make it. Most did not bring their "plus 1". The ride home for SIL was ...

  The kiddos were not happy that we were not going somewhere yesterday. Frankly, after 2+ hours in the car just to get to the museum I am ready for several days at home! We did have a full day planned regardless. We were going to go to the space museum today to make up for the "boring at home" day, but appointments ran over and DH was too tired to make the trip. Add to that I forgot to grab dog food and milk on museum day and that necessitated a quick run to the store for those two items. I did grab 5 dozen eggs to be ready for the men's breakfast on Saturday. That should save me from going later this week. Every second and fourth Saturday the men get together at the church and have breakfast. Usually, DH brings scrambled eggs, and leaves my kitchen a disaster. This week he can't drive and probably won't want to cook. So this weekend he will take egg cups. Because I will have to cook them and they are neater to make than 3 dozen scrambled eggs... and we get stuck ...
