.A diversion this month.
We spent the month of August in Southern California and points north
up the coast to Redmond, WA and Vancouver, BC.
I was away from my kitchen - but we ate very well.
Presented here are some of the highlights.
Annual family birthday party open house at cousins Ron and Velda Schei's
home in Washington - 52 guests this year!
Sue-On had a blast as sous chef as she hadn't been in the kitchen for
18 days!
We arrived on the 18th, cooked all day on the 19th and morning of 20th.
Party from 1pm to 6 pm. Great bunch of people!
.
Cousin Ron was the "runner" doing a great job
of dishing out Grandma Schei's famous deviled eggs :-)
.
.Daughter Allison
lent a most welcomed hand in all the plating upon arrival Saturday morning.
.
.Some of the appetizers
...
.
Beautiful tomatoes with goat cheese and fresh
basil from Velda's garden
.
.Sheep cheese spread
on baguette - delicious! Hard to stop when we sampled them Friday night!
.
.Grandma's Schei's
much-in-demand chicken and potato salad
.
.Grandma's deviled
eggs
.
Sue-On's fun see (Chinese mung
bean noodles) with shrimp and onion
- a new item to Velda's already long list of
annual party fare
.
Lasagna made with "zuchinni pasta" for a friend
who is gluten intolerant
.
Velda's 3-cheese mac'n'cheese with deep fried
onions

Meat balls!

Think it disappeared too fast for my camera,
but I can vouch for its deliciousness ;-)
