We've had a long standing tradition of having some ethnic food dinner nights while staying together on our summer vacations on Long Lake in the Adirondacks. We would usually set aside a night or two for those special dinners. Recently we've been having an Italian pasta night and a Mexican tacos night and each household would make sure there were some special ingredients brought along for those dinners. This year Ashley came up with a great idea to add an Asian food night which we were then all looking forward to. Of course we always have one night for a regular vacation cookout with chicken, hot dogs and burgers. We go out to a restaurant at least one night for dinner and then we have the leftovers dinner the night before we go back home.
Things turned out a little different this year because of the Long Lake flooding situation but that's another story.
We had our pasta night on Saturday evening after driving up to the Adirondacks.
Sunday we had our cookout with Sean taking care of the grill.
Monday was every family for themselves. It was a very rainy night. Actually the only really bad weather time but with far reaching consequences. Everyone brought plenty of food.
Tuesday we had taco night which was all very good and a lot of fun. We had quite the assortment of foods.
Wednesday we went over to the Adirondack Hotel for dinner on the back porch with the kids. Unfortunately Ashley had to take Andrew back home to Glenville earlier in the day but there again that's another story. Sean stayed in Long Lake and went out to dinner with us along with Katie and Todd and the kids.
Thursday we had Asian night. This was a very successful first for us in Long Lake.
Friday we had leftovers.
