Speaking of weddings...

15 years ago on November 7th, Jason and I were married. I still can't believe it's been that long. The only thing that gives me sense of how long we've been blissfully wed is that we have a 10 year old child and a few more... Beyond that, it alternately feels like we've been married a few short years or forever. Somehow, it doesn't feel like "just" 15 years.

We didn't have anything planned other than dinner at our favorite steak house. Wouldn't you know, those same kiddos that give me perspective also give me the opportunity to stay home. Brennen woke up that morning with a nasty stomach bug. We had to skip grammar co-op and our anniversary dinner. Oh well... we can go to dinner another night.

I am getting the "Feeding" part down...

As you can see to your right, I am reading "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands." No, it's not literally about "feeding" husbands, but in my case, it is! Jason really loves food. He's not picky and eats almost anything, but loves when I cook. I don't cook often enough so I am working to remedy that. Hence, the cake.

Last night, I made dinner for the in-laws. Pork roast, scalloped potatoes, rolls, coleslaw, and warm apple crisp & ice cream for dessert. Whew!

Well, tonite I did one better! Chicken Parmesan with Simple Tomato Sauce Oh my goodness! It was so good! All the kiddos loved it. I don't usually care for tomato sauce, but this was great! I made spaghetti to go along with the chicken and that thrilled the pasta lovers in my house (Jason and Rhys). It was just perfect all the way around. I'll make that tomato sauce again. I might even make that the standard for pasta sauce around here. I might even eat spaghetti once in a while. (Most of you know, I don't like pasta...)

What am I going to do to top this? Ack!
