Burritos 101

It poured all day, long which inspired an afternoon of binging a new series. 

Little Wonder loves his Auntie Steph, and she is the only one who kept busy today.

Her goal, starting this morning, was to make a huge batch of burritos for Finn.  It was done in a crockpot and took awhile ...but wow!  What a massive bunch of food.

She is an absolute pro in the food department.  Gary and I each had a cup of the filling....so delicious.

16 huge burritos already to be frozen for many lunches.

Of course Little Wonder kept me company.

Sidney actually ventured out into the raindrops.

Steph, Jen and a couple of pals met at 58 Main late afternoon.  Gary and I had a simple dinner...

a caesar salad and corn chowder.

And now for a little March Madness by the fire before Steph goes into Rochester to catch her train back to Kansas City.  25 hours.  What a trooper!

Night all.

PS

Check out this sweet picture of Little Wonder that was taken by the photographer yesterday.

Michelle is so good at this!

Well this was a very busy day!

First I took all the tired flowers out of Rebel's second bouquet and made a smaller one.

Then I made the bed and knocked down some cob webs around the house.

These two assisted with the bed part.

Stephanie went down to Wegmans to pick up some supplies as she is going to make Finn about 20 burritos tomorrow, that he can take out of the freezer and heat up.  He's going to love that.

Yesterday she made dozens of peanut butter cookies.

At 2:30 our friend Michele came up to do a photoshoot with me as the subject.  She has a show coming up in June and I am honored to be part of it.  We ventured out to the Studio with Little Wonder (he was in a lot of the shots) and the rest were taken in the house.  Can't wait to see them.

While we were outside, Finn came to pick up Steph as they were going to visit his father and Nana Pat.

When all that was over I took LW for a walk and checked out THE SKOOG SHOP, which is Gary's barn.  He has started cleaning it out and I was very impressed.

It is loaded!

At 5:30 we left for Rochester 

to have a celebratory birthday dinner for Steph at Tony D's.

On the way, we ended up right behind Jenny, Scott, Finn and Steph.  What are the odds of that?

Ta Daaaaa.

We shared an artichoke appetizer...

ordered 3 large salads to share....

and each of us ordered something different for the main course.

Generous servings and so delicious.

Steph was treated to a chocolate cannoli for her birthday.

What a great place for a special dinner.

Night all.

 

Still in the 20s

Off to a slow start, and by 10:30 I was here.

It's gong to take awhile for me to get my back in shape.

Home by 11 and Steph was getting ready to go out to lunch and spend the day with a friend.  As prescribed, I spent some time with heat on my back.  Little Wonder joined me.

Gary continued working in his barn....adding more steps to his new watch.  We had just enough sun off and on to start melting some of the snow.

LW is in need of some good outside time.  We would really appreciate a warm up.

Steph got home as I was getting dinner together.

  Spags with caramelized onions and fresh tomatoes...

and a nice salad.

Yum.

Off duty.

Night all.
