We said our goodbyes early this morning to head back to Texas after a whirlwind weekend. Even with dad’s scare yesterday it still turned out to be a fabulous weekend with tons of good memories made. The rain held out until today and while it was no fun driving in it from Baton Rouge to Baytown we missed the worst of it both by our house and in New Orleans.
When we got home we unloaded the huge container of produce to see what we had, and it was a lot. We were able to share with friends and the girls are excited to bring each of their teachers a bag full of goodies tomorrow. Tomorrow I’ll be prepping a lot of produce to freeze for future meals.
We caught a lot of interesting things, but I think we all agree the one lone boiled crawfish was the most amusing one!
