Unfortunately our weekend consisted of non-stop rain so our Easter picnic plans had to be cancelled. I decided to make my Mom's delicious brown sugar and pineapple ham for dinner and I have to say I'm pretty proud of how my first ham came out. We also had some white chocolate covered popcorn for dessert while watching half of House of Cards season 2.
Excuse the ugly red, black and blue colors. This is what happens when you're in yoga pants all day and have no one to impress with your table setting skills.
With Ruby still on the mend, we all tried to make up for the lack of sleep we've had over the past week. We have to be really careful that she doesn't lick her incision or sit on her leg wrong since her mobility is limited, so every time she moves in her crate both of us wake up and make sure she is okay. I can only imagine what it will be like when we have a kid!
Poor pup cuddled in like this for most of Sunday |
It was so nice having nothing to do this past weekend, but I did miss our families and wish we had more energy to go out and about. Here's hoping this week goes by fast! I hope you all had a great Easter!
Your food looks so delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 days at home, we got so much done! We had gorgeous weather but are getting some nasty rain now. Sweet little Ruby, glad she is feeling better :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I could use a 3 day weekend every weekend. I did not do enough "nothing" this weekend so I'm already counting down til Friday. Home your sweet pup gets better fast!

That pic of Ruby makes my heart hurt - poor little bug but so glad to hear she is on the mend! I am def in need of a break but back to work I go! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI find the easiest way to get medicine in Finn's mouth (because he too spits it out). I open his mouth and put it as far back in his throat that I can. Then I shut his mouth and rub his throat, followed by a treat. Poor little Rubster I hope she mends quickly.
ReplyDeleteSo glad sweet Ruby is on the mend!! And your ham is impressive, girlfriend - looks delicious!!
ReplyDeletePoor baby!! She looks so sad! :( That ham looks delicious good job! Let's plan to go to Red's this weekend since this weather will be great. Theo won't be able to play golf for awhile he broke his finger so the boys can come too!
