Sloppy Lennys Recipe

From I Dream of Dinner so You Don’t Have To by Ali Slagle

The second time I made it I used green lentils instead of red. Seemed to hold shape better. Serve on toasted buns just as you would their cousin Sloppy Joe.

Big Boy Locomotive #4014 in Glenfield PA

Friends Debbie and Sy invited us to come see the giant steam locomotive with their visiting family and then see fireworks later in the evening. We had a great time. We were at a fenced in playground so the kids were safe. And they brought chairs! Nice planning. We went across the Ohio River to their house for dinner and then headed to Avalon for fireworks! What a day.

Still celebrating

A guilty pleasure which many don’t understand. Pouring milk on cake. Usually I’d do it on a stale piece but this little piece was still fresh.

Here’s a 14 second video of milk being poured over a piece of Trader Joe’s Lemon Sheet Cake atop a nest of juicy blackberries.
