wait. what? no matching outfits? tisk tisk tisk...and here you had my vote for RAD mom of the year. i will hold off, for now ;) ok you have a pass.
the beans sound yummy. i just checked my pantry and fridge and the only thing i a m missing for your recipe is brown sugar...of course, the girl who never bakes.
I must admit I have never thought of serving baked beans at a bbq... thanks for that idea.
Happy 4th of July!
I'm with Jo - I never knew to serve beans with bbq but it makes sense..here in canada we have a Ribfest wweek where a bunch of stands from the US come to compete who has the best ribs and they always serve baked beans with it!!
Oh thank you for the recipe. I have been wanting to get rid of Pork n Beans we have so many. Todd saw a great deal and stocked up on them and we haven't made any since. Now I can get rid of some of them with a new recipe to try. Eeck so excited. The chicken does look good, I can see why you can't wait to try it. How lucky are you to have a pool at home!
Happy 4th of July!
Lookie here I am actually commenting!! Don't you feel loved? The twins actually have slept the last 2 nights so I am feeling good for the moment ;). We always do hamburgers for 4th of July. Side dish is either my Beefy Baked Beans (kinda like the calico beans just a few differences) or bean dip and tortilla chips,(refried beans, mexi or colby jack cheese, salsa all mixed together and heated up in the micro yum!). Today we are going with easy and doing the bean dip. And I finished making the twins shirts yesterday so they all have matching shirts this year.
We are lucky the wind sock we have is flag themed. Otherwise we just don't decorate.
I like baked beans but we usually do Bushes. they taste the same.
Happy 4th!
We usually just stay home and swim and BBQ too, then catch the fireworks at the local farm from our front yard.
My baked beans are like yours, but with green pepper added. That's the way my mom always made them, so it's tradition.
That chicken looks yummy. I bought a luau marinade so that's what we're trying. Maybe some bacon-wrapped shrimp kabobs too.
Of course I dress in patriotic colors, but I kind of slacked on the decor too. Just got a few things out today.
The closing of the drive in movie theatre is a let down . . . especially on this day of days!!!
I'm kinda glad to hear others haven't gotten decorations up this year...at least I know I will get Christmas!
Just wanted to say that I'm crappy for enjoying your blog but never commenting even though I know you love it. I don't even remember how I found your blog.. (ramble). Anyway, I rarely comment to anyone, and live on the same street as family and see them maybe twice a month (more ramble)
Long post short: I miss your chatty blog posts. Glad you are still doing the Wednesday lists, but I thought you should know you have a "follower" (although you would disown me as I am definitely not glamorous/fab in any way LOL)
