Dave's girlfriend Dani is making burritos. Thus I will eat burritos.

The lot of us, that is to say, the three adults, Dani's two kids, and the three dogs all went for a hike along Black River. Many rocks, much slope, high altitude. An appetite has been worked up by all.

Not much doing on a Sunday, so may as well make the most of it!
 
We are inclined to feed well here, 'tis true. M is a talented baker, and since retirement has expanded her repertoire a lot, especially into very delicious vegetarian dishes. I have always enjoyed all cooking and have made something of a specialty of our charcoal fired Weber smoker/grill over many a year now.

We don't do too badly :).
 
Subway's the worst. I'm not an elitist with sandwiches/subs, but damn they sure manage to screwup an easy combination. Rolls with different flavors listed that all manage to taste the same, but omit the flavor that's on the label, and a bunch of ingredients that should be good, but end up /off/ somehow. It's edible, and probably marginally healthier than McDonalds, but they're about the last place I'd want to get a sub from.
 
French vanilla icecream & pinecones!

It was actually leftover shepherds pie, but that wasn't an interesting picture. Not sure about the cones on icecream. It's a jarring texture change. There's some potential there though. Maybe mix them in, and freeze them that way. Ben & Jerry could make it. Call it Piny The Elder :^P

Pinging @Maximalist Have you ever had Ivan tea? Is it any good?

 
It's good. The texture's the biggest problem. There isn't a whole lot of liquid component to the preserves, but mixing a decent quantity of pine "syrup" into the icecream, then garnishing with one or two cones, and maybe a sprig of pine would be a super fun winter dessert.
