Sommer, Shanking and Salmon

When Wayne and I got home today we discovered a little artwork on the corner of our house. I thought the artist deserved some credit for her work.

Leng Bai, tattoo artist extraordinaire, pop and Wayne out for a day of golf. I lovingly entitle this picture Team Shank, but in true golfer philosophy there is no bad day on the course.

That's my honey.

A really good friend gave us some Salmon from Alaska so we all decided that we were going to make some fish tacos. In our house we try to keep the kids engaged because even the simplest of things can turn into the most wonderful memories. The kids love to experiment with new recipes so the best part of any meal usually turns out to be the making of it.

Sommer is mixing up the sauce for our salmon tacos. Mayo, avocados, honey, salt and pepper to taste and lemon juice.
She's an expert at making sure no seeds get in the mix. You getting this Food Network?

Peyton starts the batter for the salmon pieces. Flour, water (beer works too for adults), an egg, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic, dijon mustard to taste and just a bit of paprika.

Mmmm... so good!

Chocolate stinky hairy fafa

What's your favorite Halloween treat? I'm still trying to decide what to make with Hope and TonTon this Friday.Graveyard pudding? Mine is made with green colored coconut flakes for grass and a dug up grave with frosting skeleton.
Haunted Hands with popcorn, fruit and nuts and a few chocolate or peanut butter pieces thrown in. My favorite treat of all times is Chocolate Stinky Hairy Fafa made with graham crackers, nutella spread and chocolate sprinkles that look like hair. Hope is probably going to her school function and Tonton might want to hang out at my brother's. The little girls won't be around cause it's not my weekend. OK, can I just be really honest and say this sucks air big time?
