Odds and Ends

 I forgot, I never told you about the delicious meatball slider sandwiches I took to the family reunuion potluck lunch! I bought meat balls-frozen-let them thaw overnight in the fridge, then assembled the pan full of sandwiches that morning. I used the Aldi's version of King's Hawaiian rolls, and then some jarred pasta sauce, then some mozzarella cheese, then a little brush of melted butter on top with a sprinkle of  Parmesan cheese, then into the oven for 20 minutes!

 DONE! They were a hit-I only had one little lonely sandwich leftover. SO there-that's one thing.

 Then there's this thing. My Uber son purchased a motorcycle.

 It is a pretty little Harley Davidson. Some anniversary edition....and it does suit him well.

 I'm not sure his wife is crazy happy, but he sure is and I know she'll appreciate that fact.

 Then there's Ringo-as always.

 And I finished up these dolls. I posted about the Red Riding Hood one I think, but now they are both done and will be going to the church auction & bazaar.

This one is supposed to be fashioned after Alice in Wonderland. She has a cat and a rabbit to play with too. Pretty cute. I wonder if they still make these fabric panels? They are not exactly fast to put together, but they do come out cute as can be! And I guess now I'm all caught up. I have a couple more projects in the works-things that have been hanging around in my head!

Pinterest Winner, Winner Potluck Dinner

 SO, Sunday was the annual family reunion potluck lunch, so I ,of course, sought out a pinterest idea for a great dish. The rule is always this-make something you like, that way if nobody eats it you're not stuck with something icky. SO sliders seem to be the latest in food trends, Here's the link to the recipe from Land O Lakes.

It took longer to assemble these little things than it did to bake and eat them! I used both Swiss and American slices, 1/4 of each, and 1.5 slices of ham for each sandwich. Easy as can be. I changed the recipe and used 2 Tablespoons of honey instead of brown sugar in the butter sauce.  I tucked them snugly in the pan and drizzled the melted honey butter over the top and put them in the fridge overnight.

I made a pan for mom & dad too. They were a hit at the pot luck! I only had maybe 4 of them left-we had a pretty small turnout or I think they would all have been gone! I'm so glad to have a pinterest win!!
