The Boys from Maryland made their annual trek to The Acre this weekend. Most of the week was geared toward cleaning the house and food prep, because Cupcake is the hostess with the mostess. But to start off this weeks update, we found this on the camera roll and had to add it.
The usual food fare for a visit from the People's Republic is brisket. Lawman had a brisket in the pipe, almost ready to smoke. He rolled the dice and smoked it before the ten day marinate period was complete. It did OK.
Another big hit is carrot cake. Lawman whipped one up from scratch and used four primo duck eggs in the mix. We're telling you, it makes a difference.
He topped it with his soon to be world famous cream cheese/pineapple icing.
After a brief period of dinner, beer and swapping war stories along with several lies about women, the boys spent a chilly night inside Serendipity, but we fed them a big ol country breakfast that we whipped up on our brand new Blackstone griddle. Cupcake says now we need one for the house.
After this shot, we realized Steve was not wearing his official travel bear, so we grabbed the official travel bear picture.
Of all the People's Republic people Lawman has invited to The Acre, Steve and JBMC are the only two that have made the trek.
The only thing non visit related this week was the starting of a fresh batch of laundry detergent. The bar soap has to soak a week before we add the other ingredients.
We ended the week with a nap, as soon as the boys rolled out of the driveway.
