Phew! Getting this one in under the wire today. Tonight Blane and I had both sets of parents over to our house in honor of Blane's Mom's birthday this week. It was the first time that I cooked for our parents and it turned out great!
On the menu was Misoyaki salmon (courtesy of Court and her Dad's recipe!), brown rice, Kathy's salad and homemade banana cake with cream cheese frosting for dessert. Mom Sandi shared during dinner that this evening was her second favorite moment of her entire year (after the wedding) because no one had ever invited her over and cooked for her before. My heart swelled and hurt at that because she is always cooking for everyone else and having people over at her house. She was so touched that we would want to cook for her and have her over-it was the best birthday present that we could have given to her.
I am blessed to have a wonderful Mother-in-law. I was so excited to give her my first "Happy Birthday Mom" card tonight. It was a great evening, with sharing (hey-my Dad was in the house, haha), family, good food and celebration.
Happy Birthday Mom!
Love you,
Aim
