The Weekend Dish: 5/17/2025
Happy Saturday to you!
It’s hard to believe May is already more than half over! The kids’ spring sports seasons are all wrapping up, homework has dwindled, and summer is in sight. I hope you enjoy the next couple of days!
On Brown Eyed Baker This Week
Friday Things #572 – Busy May continues, recipes I made this week, not worrying about the future, and a new show…

Top 5 Most Popular Posts This Week:
2. Key Lime Pie
Most Popular Product Shares This Week:
1. Ninja Swirl – We love soft serve at our house, and while this would be sooooo fun, there’s just something about getting it from the window of the local soft serve stand, right?!
2. Every Day with Babs - I got this cookbook when it came out last month and I ended up bookmarking nearly the entire book. The recipes are very inline with our family's tastes and I could see my kids enjoying nearly all of them! I made her homemade sheet pan crunch wraps last week and they were wonderful!
3. DreamSky Alarm Clock - This is the clock all of our kids have in their rooms (and they brought them on vacation!); the time sets automatically, adjusts for DST, you can adjust the brightness, it shows the day, date, temperature, etc. and the alarm function is easy to set - Dominic figured it out himself and loves to set an alarm for himself on school mornings now.
4. Large Square Glass Jar – This is the jar I love using for batches of refrigerator bread and butter pickles. Perfect for stashing them in the fridge!
