The idea of cooking and presenting all the food in one pot is great. The flavours mix and the washing up is greatly reduced.
ReplyDeleteHello Mae,
ReplyDeleteAll your food looks delicious! The garden images are pretty, I like teh fish and the purple shamrocks. Take care, enjoy your day and have a wonderful week!
Alice and I could sit together with our iced coffees.
ReplyDeleteYou've been on a dining roll! Everything looks fantastic and so beautifully presented. What a choice of restaurants you have. Fun to have Evelyn and Tom with you, too and always Alice!
ReplyDeleteAll of the food looks so good, especially that breakfast. The garden is beautiful. Have a nice Monday.
ReplyDeleteYou must love having your granddaughter near by, and it's nice that you family also visits. All the food looks good.
ReplyDeleteI want Alice’s breakfast! Lots of food in this post, and it is making me hungry! Purple shamrock? Happy T Day
ReplyDeleteThe bonsai is beautiful! #TforTuesday
ReplyDeleteHmmm, my fav is the iced coffee and I hope I can eat "normal" soon again - this sure helped! Have a great T-Day. And yes. Must visit our botanical garden again...
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see you this week, Mae. Wonderful view of your granddaughter. And I keep forgetting that every time you visit for T, I am starving afterward.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome trip to the Botanical Gardens. Lovely koi. Thanks for sharing all your meals and visit with us for T this Tuesday.
What a nice visit. Glad your family is back. Much to eat here.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely photo of Alice (Your granddaughter I believe).
ReplyDeleteAnd all that lovely food makes my stomach rumble.
I love the photos from the botanical gardens. Now is that a rock or an exotic cactus? The bonzai and the koi are impressive. Beautiful.
I believe it is St Patrick's day today. I have an Irish neighbor and she told me, so your shamrock are very appropriate.
The Everest Sherpa Restaurant food looks very interesting. I wish I knew what I was looking at. Of course I recognise the rice and the mango salad, but the rest is a mystery. But I would gladly try it as I'm always excited to try different foods.
Of course your home made food looks absolutely delicious. I haven't done a roast chicken in a while. Good idea. Perhaps next week when my friends come over for a meal.
Happy T-Day,
Lisca
Looks like a delicious time was had by all at the Jefferson. It's almost lunchtime so all the food pictures are making me extra hungry. Such interesting stones at the botanical garden. Beautiful Bonsai tree and purple shamrocks! Since it's St. Patrick's Day today, Lá Fhéile Pádraig Sona Dhuit! and Happy t Day
ReplyDeletePretty pictures from the arboretum!
ReplyDeleteWow, that all looks delicious! I love the mix of eatingout, snacks at the gardens, and cozy home cooking, especially that roast chicken and boeuf bourguignon. Makes me hungry just reading it!
