Bacon Friday With Friends!

I unexpectedly had some friends over for dinner on Friday night. I got a call saying they were going to be near me and were curious if I wanted to hang out. I didn't have any plans so I told them to come on over! 

None of us really wanted to go out and spend money, so we quickly figured out what we had in our fridges and made a meal out of that! And because bacon is SO delicious, we decided to include it in everything we made - including dessert! And that's how Bacon Friday came about!

ALL the goodies!

Ranch Fries with Bacon Crumbles

Spring Mix Salad with Figs, Goat Cheese and Bacon

Grilled Cheese with Bacon. 

YUM!!!

And for dessert...

We enjoyed Chocolate Covered Bacon!

They picked it up at the fair earlier in the day.

And it was a perfect ending to a bacon filled Friday!

Summer Weekend Fun!

I didn't have a 4th of July party, but I did have a couple friends over yesterday for some Summer Weekend Fun, which wouldn't be complete without delicious food and even some pool time!!!

Because I'm a foodie, I of course got pictures of all the food, but ONLY the food. No swimming, no racing in the pool and no walk to get yummy frozen yogurt. Oh - and no sleepover shenanigans either! :) 

ALL the goodies!

Half of the goodies:

Dijon Deviled Eggs
Figs with Honey Goat Cheese and Crackers
Caprese with Homegrown Basil

And the other half:

Grilled Baby Artichoke with Lemon Aioli

Pesto French Fries with Ketchup and Ranch Dressing

I can't wait for more Summer days filled with fun like this!!!
