Fat Tuesday dinner

Today is Fat Tuesday. The last day to over indulge before Lent. I decided to make a little more then usual meal for dinner to celebrate. We had roasted tri-tip smoothered in minced garlic and panko crumbs. On the side mashed potatoes and gravy with broccoli and a glass of cab. E loved it, E loves a hearty meal. And I was quite taken with my dinner efforts. It was fantastic. The littles refused to eat it instead we had to make them a pot of seimein noodles, one of their personal favorites.

I dream of the day when these littles look at me and say "mommy that was GOOD , I want some more .. your the best cook ever" I mentioned this to E and he laughed reassuring me that that day is coming soon.
