soooooo

So were back, and me being the blond forgot to check my camera for a camera card.  :(  I'm so sad, I didn't get any pictures of the wedding we did in Paso Robles.  So I am at the mercy of the photographer.  Hopefully in a couple weeks, I can get some images.

Other then that we had a blast!  We did not have enough time to see the the wineries.  I went to 3, it was so nice!  i learned how to taste right, and you really could taste a difference with swirling sniffing then tasting. I had some really yummy wines, and cant wait to go back!

delay...

Morning, I had a delay with the  blog,
1. we were busy,
and
 2. I am looking for a better blog templet to work with.  I have one I have started (other then this one) but it's not really user friendly, for me any way.  I guess it could be user error.. :)
but in the mean time I'll keep this one going until i change it.

This past week we were honored and excited to work with Lindsay from LVL weddings.
The event was an ABC meeting at house of blues.  Being a huge fan of music I was really excited to work there.
Here are some images enjoy,

How LABOR DAY started

Labor Day History: How Did Labor Day Become a Holiday? – This coming Monday, September 6, 2010 will be aLabor Day in the United States and Canada. What is Labor Day and what does it mean to you? Labor Day is an annual holiday observed on the first Monday in September to celebrate the economic and social achievements of laborers which consists of most of us. It represents an annual national tribute to the contributions we as laborers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

The history of Labor Day in the United States dates back in September 5, 1882 in New York City in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. By 1884, the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday to celebrate Labor Day, as originally proposed by the union. Since then, the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a “workingmen’s holiday” on that date.

Orange street fair

orangestreetfair.org/Last day of the orange street fair.  I woke up early and took the kids down.  We were eating rosettes,  and danish aebleskevers by 10:00.
 It was nice, a little to hot for me.  Bounce house's and a little carnival area for the kids. Next time I go maybe no kids so I can go into all the cute antique shops.

Fire safety

So last night i was burning a candle in a mason jar with dirt at the bottom, the candle ran out and the dirt actually caught on fire!  The whole jar was in flames cracking the glass, I have also had this happen before with coffee beans, so FYI have the candle or tea light that is made for burning in another glass container inside the jar.

soups on...

Okay here it is, my dill pickle soup, I'm  please with the turn out, its creamy, smooth and the pickle taste is yummy!  

Dill pickle soup

Ok today is the day.  I am going to do a trial run of a dill pickle soup I had in the Polish Village Cafe in Hamtramck, also known as Zosia's (the restaurant in the basement) in Michigan. www.food.com/recipe/zosias-polish-dill-pickle-soup-264619 Sounds weird but it was amazing! If you like potato salad you'll love this soup!
I'll let you know how it turns out~
