Grand Cayman Botanical Park

My first post of the summer is not from the comforts of Tennessee and our quaint neighborhood but from the shores of an island. A summer internship for the hubs brought us to Grand Cayman. I am so thankful for the ability to join him. On the weekends we get to see the sights and enjoy the sand and sun.

This is a viewing of our finds at one of the most incredible parks I have ever seen. Being hot is not something I enjoy. You can imagine how well the humid oceanic climate and I are getting along. However, when beauty like this is in my presence I am able to cope a lot easier.

Welcome to the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park. If you ever make it to Grand Cayman, this is a stop you MUST make.

Laurel's First Easter

No words. She is so fun. So many emotions between this child and her egg.

Sushi 101 with the Moore and Lindsey Fam

A rustic cabin weekend in Northern Georgia calls for nothing other than Sushi. You may have smores on your cabin weekend trips, but us Moore-Lindsey-McQuain families do it up right with a little help from the fruits of the sea.

With the help of a rice cooker, an iphone, and a youtube tutorial we were quite successful if I do say so myself. Our choice, the California Roll. There aren't too many fresh fish sources in Northern GA. We thought the California would be our best bet. I will also mention that we were out of suran wrap...this is what you normally wrap your bamboo mat with so your sushi does not stick, we used a large ziploc instead. Feast your eyes! Now go make your own!

 

Just in case the sushi was a bust Erin made us some Teriyaki Chicken too, a little warm sake on the side. :-)

Hungry taste testers.

Penny wasn't very interested.
