Tuesday Tidbits - Kelly's Giveaway, Easter, and Neighborhood News

Kelly at (un)Deniably Domestic started hosting Blue Plate Mondays this week. Each week, participants of BPM share recipes and more. She has made the cutest apron to give away. Go to her blog here to see it and what you can do to make it yours. (I've already got my name in the mason jar!) Look for Kelly's Blue Plate on my blog Monday to see what's cooking here.Hubs and I hosted Easter dinner here on Sunday. The daughter and son in law came up from Raleigh bringing the grandson and a friend of daughter's. We dined on barbecued ribs, grilled veggies (sweet potatoes, asparagus, zucchini and yellow squash), cole slaw, deviled eggs, and home made rolls. Dessert was chocolate sheet cake, home made frozen custard and these cute bunny cakes. They were more frosting and coconut than cake.

This was Boogie's first Easter to hunt eggs. He had to open each egg to make sure there was candy in it.


Lots of police cars racing around the neighborhood all afternoon. Our eighty six year old neighbor crossed the street to tell us her friend called and told her to stay in the house as there had been a shooting a block away. The shooter was on the run. Ann had to come out and look down the block to see if she could see anything. Another typical day in our neighborhood.
