Backyard dining part II

I realized after I looked at the pictures that we actually ate indoors and not in the backyard but we cooked the food on the BBQ so I am counting this as backyard dining part II. My hubby grilled this amazing pork roast for us and it was mouth watering! Juicy and tender with yummy fresh herbs from the garden. Our regular almost everyday salad…spinach, strawberries, almonds and apples with a strawberry vinaigrette. Plus some warmed up sliced french baguettes…
More pics of the pork and bread.

Oh and our other staple…sliced yams roasted and then grilled for a few minutes and they are just so delicious..not one was left! Grilled Zucchini too.

Just an all around scruptious dinner for a crowd!
Next up will be Emily’s Red White and Blue Graduation party!!

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
