Sunday Dinner

It smelled like an old fashioned Sunday dinner walking into the house after church today!  We certainly enjoyed it.



Pot Roast with Vegetables

Cake!

I was in the mood for German Chocolate Cake, so I started out with Lois' German Chocolate Cake recipe in THE Cookbook (My Sister's Recipes).  Then I realized that I didn't have any coconut.  Bummer!  But wait, there is always peanut butter in the house!  So I went on line and found a great butter cream recipe with peanut butter in it.  Actually it is the filling for Peanut Butter Truffle Brownies, but it works.   Wow was it good!

Time with Barb

It was so good to have some time to spend with Barb again.  We can pick right up where we were years or decades ago.  I was in North Carolina for business and couldn't resist the 2 1/2 hour dirve to spend a little time with her and John.  It was so good of the Angie, Tiff and her family to come hang out for the evening.

Angie - so grown up!  I will always remember her a such a cute but self sufficient 13 year old.

Tiff and Bob.  How could she have already attended her 20th High School reunion?

We had yummy Chocolate Tunnel Cake along with BBQ Chicken and yummy sides.

We also had dipping chocolate.  Here are Tiff's children (Ava and Cooper) with Nana (Barb) in the background.
