Sunday Lunch with the Folks

My parents decided they wanted to come and have lunch at our house today. It was a bit of a struggle to get my dad up the stairs and into the house but we managed.  I made a lovely lunch of barbecued flank steak that we had picked up on Friday from Katherine Farm, three bean salad with fresh green and yellow beans, home made french fries and lemon meringue pie and of course, wine.

The steak was absolutely delicious as was everything else but my lemon pie needs some work.  I really had a hard time getting the filling to thicken up but then it became too thick.  I snapped  this picture before we sat down but then I completely forgot to take any other pictures.

Note the new dining room chandelier.  The company is sending out some replacement glass globes to replace the ones broken in the move but I think it still looks great, a lot better than what was there.

Love this blanket that I picked up at Home Sense when I was back in Ontario packing up the house.  It is very soft (minky?) and lightweight, just perfect for summer and fits the decor and theme perfectly.
