Everyone’s time in
the desert is winding down, so everyone is trying to use up their
firewood. Glen and Jan invited everyone
over Tuesday evening for a camp fire, which Glen really knows how to have a bon-fire! Sorry no fire picture :(

| Don't you think that stack can make a pretty mean fire? |
While sitting around
the fire; George mentioned he needed to have a fire to use up his wood before
leaving too. Quickly it turned into a hot
dog roast, Jan had homemade chili, so now we have chili dogs, and then Deb
mention coconut pie… you guessed it…. desert was covered too. So now we just needed to wait for Saturday
evening to get here.
Saturday became a
very busy day for Deb, as she was in the kitchen all day. After our three mile walk; it was time to get
busy - Deb started the coconut pie, while trying to cook breakfast at the same
time. Unfortunately, that wasn’t such a
good ideal, so breakfast got put on hold until the pie was cooked.
While eating
(standing up), she had started on the chocolate pie – guess she didn’t learn
her lesson from the previous pie. You just cannot do both at the same time, as
pies take your undivided attention! And
eggs just really don’t taste too good cold!!
Finally, both pies were
completed – but that wasn’t enough… she then decided to make some more lemonade syrup.

| Sorry, nothing left to share - LOL |
Shortly after the
cooking was done, we got a call from another one of your new friends – Ed. They
(Ed and his dog Paco) want to come by for a visit, as they were heading back to
Vermont the next day.
We have meet some
great people in the desert this year and looking forward to seeing them again
in about 7 months.
Question for ya: What’s your
favorite dessert?
~Ours: Jerry - Chocolate pie / Deb - German chocolate cake
Guess Max had a hard day too!
Cheers, hope your day is filled with love, laughter, and many blessings!

Do you all go back to somewhere for the summer, or are you full-timers?
ReplyDeleteWe are full-timers, however we are going to take a summer gag at Lake Tahoe. How about y'all?
Deletesounds like lots of fun
ReplyDeleteThis winter has been nothing but fun with some wonderful people.
DeleteThose pies look so good. Can't wait to taste one when we meet up again (smile).
ReplyDeleteThank you!! My pleasure, what's your favorite pie? =) (hugs)
ReplyDeleteI like a strawberry-rhubarb pie, easy on the crust heavy on the fruit, but my favorite has got to be chocolate cake with a ganache frosting. Wayne likes coconut cream, boston cream and chocolate cream pies. Notice a theme there? Luckily we don't bake any of these ourselves except the rhubarb and that's only one pie a year when the rhubarb comes in. If we ate that stuff all the time we'd be broke from buying new pants to fit into! Those pies look beautiful, by the way!
ReplyDeleteWow, that strawberry-rhubarb pie sounds delicious! Now to find rhubarb? Wayne and Jerry have the same common pattern, guess you can't go wrong with cream pies. Thanks for sharing your favorite desserts, maybe someday I can bake one for you guys! Happy Spring!! =))
