Weekend Updates
Saturday we celebrated Mother's Day at the In laws and had a wonderful time.
They put on a Shrimp Boil which is something I had never done before it was a little awkward at first but ended well. Corn, Shrimp, Onion, Potatoes all together in a big heap on some paper bags in the middle of the table.....dig in with your hands! I understand at other shrimp boils everybody eats around the grub with beers on the table and pigs out to their hearts content. We ate off our plates and had a great meal!! Thanks Mom & Dad for the great feed!
We ended with a dessert, Ice Cream Cake. This was my first ice cream cake and I was told it was very yummy not much to look at but tasted great!
Curly had his first saddle experience he did really well! Best personality!! Luv Him!!!!
Have a great week everybody!!!

I had heard about a shrimp boil, but have yet to try one. I think I will suggest that for our next family get-together. Looks like something everyone, especially the grandkids, would enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYes I believe they would! I don't know any child who wouldn't think that wasn't fun!
DeleteWe're from Northern California and were not familiar with low country boils until we had a daughter move to the deep South...now they are our "go to" party meal. My son's engagement party was a huge "low country boil" given by his 3 sisters...it was the talk of the county for a couple of years...YUMMY...Northerners just don't know what they're missing.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Thanks for stopping by Lynda!
