I announced to Jess the other night - "You take care of dinner, I'll do dessert." (I had just acquired new dessert dishes.) He was game.
But he pretty much helped me out too - it was so much fun cooking together. I've noticed over the past year that the boys eat A TON better when I set the table and we all sit down to eat together (as opposed to sitting at the bar, or just feeding them when Jess is working) We talk, and laugh, and enjoy each others company. It really does bring us closer together. There is wisdom in the council to sit down and eat dinner as a family. And what Momma doesn't like to see (all) her boys eat?? (Compliments to the chef, no?)
First attempt at making 'hot chocolate' souffle' - Yummy. Definitely will be fun to experiment with different recipes.
Goals this week:
-Get the Halloween costumes started, and hopefully mostly finished. We'll see. I think the last time I used a pattern for something was in 7th grade home-ec class...for the ugliest pj shorts...that were red w/ dalmations on them.
-Two words. my bedroom. ugh.
-Get my hair cut (find someone to cut it!)
Looking forward to:
-Going to South Dakota with Jess. It's gonna be a BLAST! And hopefully not too cold. :)
