THE JOLIE ADVENTURE

Spent the weekend with friends at our family lakehouse, a beautiful haven outside of the city -- a space for laughter with friends, counting blessings, and many meals. When not floating & dreaming in the water we cooked fantastic late spring {early summer} meals: -----------------------------  Lakehouse Meals Dinner 1: Steaks (seasoned only with s+p), baked sweet potatoes with bacon & sour cream, spinach salad with blueberries & shaved parmesean. Breakfast 1: Scrambled farm fresh eggs with left over steak with salsa & homemade guacamole, strawberries. Dinner 2: San Antonio chile seasoned fajitas, sauteed carmelized corn off the cob, with green bell peppers and onions, + corn tortillas.   Breakfast 2:  Migas (scrambled eggs, fried corn tortillas, & lots of cheese) ------------------------- Lakehouse Loves ...sleep with the sound of lapping lake waves and cicadas. ...a full day of lakeside lounging and swimming, wine, boats, strawber

...almost impossible to catch my breath after returning home, yet grateful for the never-ending fun that life provides. Yesterday an extravaganza of Italian groceries (and an abundance of Italian wine), fresh peach bellinis, time spent with my fairy Godmother... & Tonight a dinner at my favorite Austin restaurant with family and friends!
