It's been super beautiful (well it always is in California) and we have a wonderful backyard that I wanted to take advantage of so I invited some friends over for a picnic yesterday. I spent most of Tuesday cooking for it, (takes a lot longer when someone in particular is always demanding my attention.)
Menu:
pasta salad with tomatoes and basil from my mother's garden
sun-dried tomato, chive and dill potato salad
strawberry lemonade
mint chocolate cherry oatmeal cookies
cocoa ginger zucchini muffins
(don't ask for recipes, they were all made up)

The boys found sticks.
Lillie and Sarah telling us all about it:)
Finn only lets Emily hold him...and my new friend Karisa and her new baby.
So Finn is particular about people, but he's warmed up to my cousin Emily (thank goodness) probably since we see her almost everyday. (note the double chin...weighed him this morning and he's 16 lbs.)
Her son James sometimes gets jealous when he sees her holding another baby.
My awesome friend Emily made an appearance. Oh what a treat!
***Still not happy about blogger's poor photo quality!
