Happy 4th!

We are having a gorgeous 4th of July weekend up here. Sunny and warm like how summer is supposed to be. We got our Vierling growler filled to celebrate a bit early already! Cheers!!
We went fishing again Saturday morning. Once again Joe's dad caught three nice brook trout on his night crawlers at the same spot as last time.

Everyone is home at Joe's parents' house for the weekend, so last night I made sushi rolls with the grilled trout for appetizer.
To counter-balance the least American dish to celebrate the 4th, I also baked a rhubarb strawberry pie. I adjusted my recipe for my deep pie dish this time. Not too sweet, not too tart. It was perfect. The only problem was we each could only have a small slice, and it was all gone.
A firework display over the big lake tonight.
Happy 4th of July to everyone!!

  3. The last pie (strawberry rhubarb) turned out the best!
    FYI: we are babysitting a bundle of ribs in our freezer right now. Joe's dad wanted Joe to cook some ribs again soon. Joe's famous BBQ ribs on menu in a couple of weeks or so!!
