this phrase might have been created by my dad, sister and myself referring to our beloved mother (not that she ever got it or anything, we could just see how other mothers might.)
well, if i am being honest i had a little PPS last week. mom, linde and i volunteered to host a bridesmaids' luncheon and i got a little grouchy about it. but let me tell you with these two on my side i should have known it would be amazing!
they transformed my house in to this amazing place...
"cheater sangria" it is fabulous and fabulously easy, linde and i take it everywhere we can! (we recommend cheap red wine and diet sprite to cut the sweet)
iced tea and water (float lemon and lime slices in it, makes it feel fancy and tastes great)
we also had bread bowls on all the tables
mom's chocolate chip coffee cake was the star of the show! delicious and special to the brides' family!
cheese straws, loosely based on this recipe
crackers
plain muffins, another browning family favorite i'll have to share some time
and yummy salads for the main course
the pioneer woman came through as always with a fun take on chicken salad, and big thanks for michael for grilling it for us thursday night!
greek pasta salad was another of linde's yummy finds!
green salad with mom's homemade balsamic vinaigrette was amazing, but since she won't measure i can't help ya!
don't worry we didn't forget dessert!
we had cookies from JD's Chippery, YUM, and good old brownies with icing!
so the next time you feel yourself getting a little PPS, just call in linde and cindy! they will save the day and throw a fabulous party!

I just experienced JD's Chippery last week and it was AMAZING. Oh my word those cookies.
The pictures look fabulous! The food sounds wonderful! I am sure it was a wonderful. I totally get PPS! Ask Josh, I am a bear before I host stuff. Not a good thing!
