Tapas to Blueberry Cream Pie

For those of you that follow the adventures of Chef Pete',  you will  undoubtedly understand the complexity of his gastronomic prowness and his editorial jibberish.  This is what I deal with, almost daily.   ENJOY.

     Chef Deb goes all out... or All in, depending on your point of view. C.D. went totally solo cooking in the Cucina.

     Her husband Chef Pete` (that's me) was missing in action ( on the Tennis court and swapping tall tales afterward, [no not tails]).
     Deb breaks all records with her Tapas. Try as the group might, we did not make a serious dent in the Spanish goodies.

Spanish Costa Salad

Sugar Pants went out and picked fresh blueberries on Saturday morning. Then baked a wonderful Croatian Blueberry Pie. I got to excited & forgot to photograph the pie, it in its whole state. Note: the Blogmaster in the background shoveling another ladle of pie. I remember wondering whether or not, he was taking time to breathe (I guess he was).

The Blogmaster attempts to train the Un-trainable Rrriso

(75 pounds of bull headedness).

The dog training was uneventful.... so we turned to guest videographer Renee Safrata's Croatian Bike Trip dvd. The young gal's work transported the group magically back to the Dalmatian Coast. What a talent.

We were honored to be included in the

Reilly Saturday Date Night tradition.

RSDN is a sacred ritual w/ the two love birds.

The cooking spatulas are now in my court,
