Surprise!

Posted July 21st 2009 at 8:35 pm by Mara @ What's For Dinner?

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I came home to the most wonderful surprise today! Adam had cooked ME dinner! Rather than prepping and thinking of what to make, I sat down and relaxed with this:

Cheap wine... still yummy!

And then this was presented to me:

SO GOOD!

A bowl of gnocchi with tomato basil sauce and ground beef and a side of mixed veggies. It was delicious, and so very appreciated. Adam, you’re the best and I love you!!

I wanted to introduce you all to someone today… Steve! We managed to find him (or a clone of him) today, as well as 4 friends that were named Sally, Froggy, Slimy, and BrownButt.

Just chillin'

We had a blast today practicing the Hokey Pokey (along with a hip-hop remix), and then having an apple bobbing contest. Needless to say though, I’m quite tired…though in a much better mood than yesterday! I had a major “case of the Mondays” that happened to last all day.

Have a great Tuesday!

YAY for Adam cooking you dinner! What a sweetheart!

And I love Steve, but I’m afraid BrownButt and Slimy might just be the best names ever given!
