Hi everyone..I hope each of you really had a nice Mother’s Day yesterday….I sure did! Surrounded by my daughters, Son-in-laws grandchildren and my amazing hubby..It was perfect!
 
I picked these flowers from my garden and basically plunked them in some mason jars to go down the center of the table. 
(the bees were loving them so we moved them as soon as dinner was served!)
 Here is my grilling man! He grilled up so much amazing food! Fresh Tuna, Steak, chicken and all kinds of veggies!
 
 
 One of my Son-in-Laws made this incredibly delicious chocolate cranberry orange bread!! To Die For!
 I marinated the boneless chicken thighs the night before in BBQ sauce, salt, a squeeze of lemon and my favorite seasoning from Weber called beer can chicken seasoning..I put it on everything! It is sooo good! 
 
 
 
 I found these cute melamine plates and place mats from Walmart!
 It was truly a feast of mouth-watering food! 
Me and my girls 🙂 
My daughter Emily made this show stopping Chocolate Brownie fruit tart for dessert.
 The recipe will be on the blog tomorrow. 
 
Madeline and my grandbabies!

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!
