We had another wonderful beach weekend and another round of Hungry Donut!  We had orange glaze with vanilla drizzle, toffee kiss, sandy beach (cinnamon sugar), two strawberry glaze with chocolate chips, and our most favorite, lemon in da coconut!

Sierra's Grill

I went on a blind date October 31st at Sierra's Grill.  This is the California Burrito.  It is HUGE.  It feels like it weighs 5 pounds.  We got take out from Sierra's Thursday.  I love being reminded of our first date :)

Maiwand Kabob

Fourth of July

Ribs, macaroni salad, cornbread, watermelon, mom's baked beans, and a strawberry cider! For the ribs: I buy the triple pack of St Louis Style pork ribs from Costco.  It feeds a crowd.

Greek on the Street

The Greek on the Street food truck came to my neighborhood!  I tried the Greek fries and the falafel pita.  I had some fries to share and some leftover!
