I had a beautiful lazy day yesterday. Pippi and I slept in, well after she was fed at 5:00 am, Pippi does not quite understand sleeping in yet. I read, watched tv, all in all a wonderful day.

Plumberry Pie
I made my first pie!!! I was so excited!! My friend Leslie and I went to the farmer’s market and bought the fruit. It was wonderful!
Southern Buttermilk Fried Chicken
At the dinner party my friend, Leslie, made some delicious chicken!! I love fried chicken and I always have difficulty making it. I just have not found the perfect recipe or timing.
Spicy Black Bean Burgers
I love black bean burgers. They have always been my favorite type of veggie burgers. I was super excited to try them. AND they tasted great! I used the left overs to make a yummy breakfast skillet. The possibilities are endless.
Fruit Salad
I had a dinner party last weekend and this was one of the delicious dishes that we ate. I love summer fruit salads! This was just perfect. It made a nice contrast to the tomatoes and black bean burger.
