A Busy Weekend in the Kitchen!

This past weekend we were very busy in the kitchen. It's rhubarb and strawberry season here and we had lots of favorites to make and some new recipes to try. We went to a friend's farm and grabbed some rhubarb from her and Caroline "borrowed' a fresh egg and headed home to cook. We made Strawberry Rhubarb Jam, Strawberry Rhubarb Crumb Cake, Strawberry Rhubarb Italian Sodas, Strawberry Rhubarb Jam, Strawberry Chipotle Jam, and I whipped up some Lobster Roll appetizers. Yup, you can find all of these on the blog now or very soon!
So, we had our little helper in the kitchen, where she loves to be. Daddy also got in on the action with all of the canning! We had some visitors in the shed so he had to stop working on it!


 Last week there were eggs, now there are at least 3 tiny mouths!

used to with his Grammie




 Snow White hard at work!


I was worried having only one grape tomato plant wouldn't be enough this year,
this thing has grown massive and has a ton of flowers. Come on, bring on the tomatoes!
