Absolutely no leftovers, (luckily I set aside plates for Kevin and my mom, or they wouldn't have gotten any lunch.)
A modicum of conversations above the general hubbub.
Knowing you have women by your side who completely understand.
And a completely clean kitchen (only 4 1/2 hours later!)

And in other, completely unrelated news, I am ridiculously excited about my new recipe box I ordered on Etsy. Maybe one day, my grandchildren will be going through these same recipes asking me to help them learn to cook and bake. Maybe they'll get all nostalgic after I've gone to be with Jesus because of the recipes in my handwriting. Maybe they'll have to do a coin toss to see who ends up with Grandma's precious recipes. Maybe.
or maybe they will look at the recipe and say...'oh! gross! I'm not eating that!!' (Oh wait...that was dinner at my table last night) I think this is a fabulous idea and it's super cute!
ReplyDeleteYep. Maybe.
ReplyDeleteI must admit I treasure the recipes that I have written by my late grandmother. What a wonderful present for the future.
