We'll give the inside of the cabin a good clean, more just regular housework since the cabin is used semi regularly all year now. Outdoor stuff will depend on the weather but there's mowing and weed pulling and the dock to be put in. We'll also give the sleeping area over the garage, which tends to get buggy and unfortunately, other visitors over the winter, a good clean. Once home, Sunday I'll do the same to my house, but also tackle a major room clean out in my bedroom and the bathroom. I'll also keep working on the photo projects.
I don't know what others will bring up, but I'm going for simple. I came across this recipe for an easy idea to make Grilled Foil Wrapped Fajitas. Something like this is perfect for the lake with a variety of eaters. We can prep all the veg, put in bowls and let everyone select their own, throw on the grill, have sides and dinner is done. My vegan daughter and my massive carnivore brother in law can each create the right meals for themselves. So not really a recipe but a pretty easy concept.
What are your plans? Are you home or away? Will you visit any services or events for the holiday? I hope your weekend is a good one.
Have a lovely weekend. You could use the break I'm sure!
ReplyDeleteThe break was not at the cabin and I'm getting stuff done at home, so a break of a different sort perhaps.
DeleteI love the fajitas idea. Sounds great!
ReplyDeleteThe boys have a soccer tournament on Saturday, so we'll be doing that. On Sunday, I leave to take my mom to Las Vegas. Super looking forward to the rare mother/daughter time, with no kiddos. The kids are wonderful, but mean it's hard to ever really have time with just my mom. She's thrilled about it!
The fajitas didn't quite pan out but mostly because everyone was in different places and no time to have folks assemble before throwing on the grill. I think we just had too big a group. We ended up just roasting all the vegetables and meat and everyone just assembled-it was a very big hit though. Have a great time in Vegas with your mom.
DeleteI live at the seashore ( Cape May New Jersey ) so this is the unofficial start of summer and will get VERY crowded, especially since the temps will be in the 70-80 range. Unusual for this time of year. Still a bit cold to swim in the Atlantic Ocean or Delaware Bay, but will be sitting on the beaches. No family visiting this weekend, so plan on doing some sewing to take some cloths in due to a 80+ pound weight loss, going out for some drinks and snacks and check out some new bars. Maybe some cleaning and getting ready for when family comes, by doing some cooking and freezing. We do have nightly flag ceremonies don here that are very touching, so hope to get to one of them if not too much traffic. Just a laid back time. All needed shopping has been done. I hope you enjoy your additional day off. I used to love long weekends when I was working.
ReplyDeleteYour location sounds lovely! Congratulations on the weight loss-I am plugging away like a very slow turtle.
DeleteEnjoy, but get some you time also. Like maybe three cocktails.
ReplyDeleteI had three little single serve wines Friday-so three exactly.
DeleteEnjoy your time at the cabin! We'll be catching some fireworks tonight. I work a few hours tomorrow but hopefully we can squeeze in time for an evening bonfire around the raindrops. Sunday is Fish For Free Day in Pennsylvania so we will take advantage of that-again, weather permitting. I work all day Monday but it's good money. Hubby will grill out at some point. School year has ended so our schedules will become more of a suggestion than a standard :)
ReplyDeleteThis wasn't a leisure weekend, but hopefully the next times we come will be. You may not know about the family relations in DH's side-I enjoy the cabin, but the extended family can be too much for me so I need very small doses of the rest of them.
DeleteI am away visiting friend in Flagstaff - there is snow predicted!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little geographically challenged, but there are mountains there right?
