I'm in a stretch of prep for the weekend. I was planning to do easy vodka drinks, but my youngest wanted lime drinks ... squeezed and froze 2 Costco bags of limes (!!) Freezing ahead is a nice time saver.
BIG, 7 day cookies baked beautifully. These are monster cookies and would be awesome for ice cream sammies. I used Guittard large, flat chips (ordered through the website). Cookies are Caputo's Sea Salt recipe. I think they look even better in person. Took all afternoon to bake the double batch.
After I get home from hubby's colonoscopy, I'm making wonton meatballs for munchies. Nom Nom Paleo recipe and they taste exactly like wontons. I put everything in the food processor (shrimp, pork, scallions, mushrooms, etc) and it's relatively quick to make. This is another freeze-ahead recipe.
Thursday is grocery shopping in Asheville and that's most of the work until Saturday and Sunday. I can prep a few things on Friday, but not a lot more ahead of the weekend.
Weather forecast cleared nicely so we are set for a good time. Hike guide reached out and I'm excited for fun trek in the mountains on the 4th. Looks like it's all coming together. Whew (!!)
Have a great day -- later gators.
