Katheryn spent this past weekend with me, since the rest of the family was gone at a Civil War reenactment. And let me let you in on my secret that's not really a secret, and that is that I don't like to cook. Or bake. Or really do anything in the kitchen. Which is unfortunate, since I love to eat.
But Katheryn, on the other hand, loves to cook, loves to bake, loves being in the kitchen...and she also loves to eat. Wow, can't you just see the team spirit happening between us?
Katheryn arrived at my front door Friday evening with several bags of delicious items specifically geared towards making our weekend a foodie paradise to remember! Yes, now you can see why she's my best friend. Just kidding.
Amidst the flat of fresh-picked strawberries from the local strawberry stand, a half gallon of ice cream, and a few other food wonders, there was...a roast.
I love roast.
And so, Saturday morning found us together in the kitchen, filling my baby crock pot up with potatoes, carrots, seasonings and of course, the roast.
Actually, Katheryn filled the crock pot. I just took pictures.
That
evening, she and I shared a lovely roast dinner sitting at my dining
room table, with the setting sunshine brightening the room. It was
delicious. I think I'm going to really love my crock pot!
Thanks, Ryn, for coming over and spending the weekend with me! Having you there made it feel a bit more like a real Home. Come anytime.
And of course, feel free to bake in my kitchen anytime you want!
*grin*
Aw!!!
ReplyDeleteGotta love sister-time. And that roast looks divine--hope one day *we* can cook & bake together, my friend. <3 <3 <3
And I'm glad you liked my novel's snippet. ::hugs:: Thanks for your comment! <3
DeleteHowbout you cook/bake and I'll take pictures of you doing it?? :D

DeleteThis made me laugh, Kellie! :)
Hehe. :)
DeleteLooks like you guys had a fantastic meal! I love crock pots, you can make meals that taste like you've slaved over them all day, but really you just spent 5 minutes in the morning throwing everything in! =)
ReplyDeleteKatysue, you have just summed up my very reason for using a crock pot! Excellent means...that I barely had to do anything to make! :D
DeleteI'm with you on that one, Kellie, there is nothing better than an Angus beef roast (unless, of course, it's an Angus steak)! Glad to hear someone else loves beef like me. Us beef lovers seem to be getting rarer (no pun intended!) these days. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm a beef-lovin' girl right along with you!! There's just something about red meat, eh? :D
DeleteLooks like a great time, Kellie! You girl's looked as if you were having a nice time and that is what it's all about. Plus some good food, of course. ;)
ReplyDeleteFamily, friends and food...the Three F's of Happy Living! :D
DeleteUse that crockpot! And hey invite me next time, k? :) I'll cook or take pictures....whichever you prefer.
ReplyDeleteBrea, you have a standing invitation at my house any time!! For real. And hehe...how 'bout we just order in pizza? ;)
DeletePizza is fine with me. Leaves more time to talk and quote Muppet movies.....
DeleteMy thoughts exactly! And maybe squeeze in a photo shoot or two...or three. :)
DeleteLooks delish! Good food and good friends...not much better than that!
ReplyDeleteAngela, I'll drink to that! *raises glass of cherry coke*
DeleteI'm learning a lot about Katheryn's servant heart through your posts. I like that pic you took of her. You'll be a good matchmaker ;) for her when you find the perfect guy!
ReplyDeleteShe really DOES have such a servant's heart, Michelle! Hehe, matchmaker? What are sisters (or friends? hehe) for? :)
