Weekend at the Lake - July 31-Aug 2, 2009


Highlights of the Weekend

We had a fun weekend up North. I found it to be an interesting coincidence that we stayed in the town of "Cook." Highlights include speed scrabble, a pit-stop in Cloquet to see the one and only Frank Lloyd Wright designed service station, roasted marshmallows, colorful signage, colorful foliage, sleeping in the gazebo, and a fun lunch at the Montana Cafe.

Saturday night's dinner was tasty and well received by the group. The oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, while good, had unplanned hints of dill throughout. I think a little of the dill I kept on the counter after we made our pickles last weekend got into my mixer bowl (also kept on the counter). Not a great flavor combo, but a funny story, and luckily the cookies were still edible.

Thanks so much to our gracious hosts!

Love the photos and the posting. Good times were had by everyone, dill cookies and all. (Hey, penicillin was invented by accident, too, right?)
