Last Hoorah at the KERF House

IMG_4766.jpg

After my baking fun during the day on Saturday, hubby and I did the last of food prep for our cookout dessert…

…and packed up two of my experiment bars for Caitlin + Kristien. I figured they could use a snack on their trip home – travel food is typically less than stellar or healthy.

We arrived at the KERF house and settled in to hang out with our friends – new and old.

I started with a Shock Top and snacked on some hummus and chips that Kate + Nate brought over.

and got the veggie burger buns prepped.

I had a black bean burgers (recipe by Emily + Casey) with grilled veggies, cous cous salad (by Caitlin + Jason), and salad (from Emily + Casey). Everything was soo tasty!

I brought dessert – Alton Brown’s shortcakes with blueberries, strawberries and an almond-scented whipped cream. PS If you try Alton’s recipe, please read the reviews. You actually bake at 400 (not 450) and use 1/3 cup sugar (I used 1/4 cup). There were some other potential modifications, but those were the ones I did, besides using vegetarian lard.

Whit’s milk chocolate chip cookies.

As always, another fabulous cookout at the KERF house. Too bad this was our last hoorah at the KERF house since they’re moving! 🙁 But hopefully, Kath + Matt will be back to visit soon.

As if I hadn’t done enough stuff in one day, after the cookout, I had plans to head out for a bachelorette par-tay. Dress…

…and big girls heels required. 🙂

We had a great time dancing the night away for Claire’s last hoorah as a single lady!!

    • Hi Anh, My MIL bought them for us at Crate & Barrel! They’re super cute but handwash only. I still like using them – there are 5 (I think) sizes and they come with lids. 🙂

  1. Looks like a fun ~ & tasty! ~ day. At least you’ll be acquiring new friends living locally, even as Kath moves on.
    I don’t know if this is just me being tech-illiterate, but I was keeping up with you via google buzz, but you’re no longer appearing. I have re-added you to my Reader, but thought I’d let you know anyway (please ignore if this is just my not a general glitch!).
    Best wishes for a fun working week ahead!
