Smokin'...

The weather is finally warm enough to beckon us out for a picnic or two. The garden is the perfect spot to enjoy good food!

Since it's "Golden Week", the equivalent to a national spring break, the kids are out of school and most people are off from work. Ken's daughters were able to join us, along with his wife!

Ken brought his "smoker"- nothing more than a cardboard box with coals in the bottom, but it worked SO well! We smoked ham, salmon and pizza!

Ray prepared whole wheat pizza crusts the night before, and shaped two into hearts for the girls...

Lena cut us all beautiful bouquets of garden flowers from the onion, radish and broccoli...
