Golf Cart Parade, Kay & Pete

The rain finally stopped, so Michael spent the morning getting ready to go golfing on Monday (5/29). I headed to Paula’s driveway at 9 AM for the Memorial Day golf cart parade:

I don’t know what happened this year…but they took forever to get to us.

I got home just in time for Michael to take the golf cart for his tee time. I made some breakfast, then headed to the studio to get back to quilting. I got a few rows done before Anne stopped by for a visit and to claim a piece of cake! She thought it was very good, so I gave her the recipe as it has no sugar and no flour…..2 things I know she is working to avoid. She looked so thin….she is doing a GREAT job managing her weight!

After she left, I put together an ice box cake for dinner….first you make homemade pudding (I guess you could use a box, but as homemade takes literally 15 minutes, and tastes MILES better, why would you?) Then you layer it with graham crackers:

3 layers of each, and pop it into the fridge. I always put it on a hot pad in the fridge as I am afraid of cracking my glass shelves.

I headed back to the studio after that and spent the afternoon finishing up quilting on the Ohio fabric quilt:

Michael came home from golf and we both got cleaned up and headed over to Kay & Pete’s:

for a FEAST:

and corn on the cob from Harris Teeter that was EXCELLENT!!!

A yummy Memorial Day cookout with tons of yummy food….let’s see…they fed us Sunday night with Kay’s seafood casserole, and Monday night with the cookout…and sent us home with a bag of leftovers that will probably feed us at least TWO more nights! We sat around and talked for a couple of hours, and when we got home, Michael and I watched just a bit of TV before bed.

*** You never know what I have up my sleeve….today for example, it was a dryer sheet. ***
