Wedding weekend

I was out of town for Nila's wedding in Michigan.  Jason was in charge and he did a great job of managing multiple children's activities - especially considering he wasn't feeling well.  He did Cressida's crazy hair day Friday (it looked amazing!), took Phyllis to her Primary party, took Cressida shopping for a birthday present and took the other two to see Frozen at Cressida's school - and that was all on Friday.  Saturday they did volleyball, Dai had to skip Chinese and then Cressida had a birthday party in the afternoon.

However, it was near the end of the pay period, so food was low and I hear they did some oatmeal, some quesadillas, bean burritos (I made beans before I left) and ate the roast which they were able to salvage and they said was actually pretty good.  I had put carrots and onions under the roast when I did that, too, but, like the roast they didn't cook up quite right.  Jason re-steamed the carrots, but apparently Phyllis ate the cooked onions as they were.  Granted, they are a sweet variety, but still - she loves her onions.  Her favorite is caramelized onions.  Tonight I am grilling some for her (and us) on the George Foreman grill.
