Our Lives and Loves

13 Years and Counting

June 16th, 2010 Posted in Family, Our House

On the evening of our 13th wedding anniversary Pete and I treated our four children to a four course dinner. We pretended that we were at a very nice resturant with a dressed up dinnner table and served them waitress style.  The kids had a great time.

The dressed up table:

A very special Indian Batik table cloth from Ten Thousand Villages.  Wine glasses and special cutlery (the kids enjoyed a sparkling juice).

Here is what we served:

A lovely garden salad with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and topped with marble cheese and a homemade caesar dressing.

A Rachel Rae stoup with sausage and kale (so yummy).

Steak, barbequed to perfection, and steamed green beans.

And to finish off some real vanilla ice cream with home-made berry sauce and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.

The dinner took 2 hours to share and we enjoyed every minute.  The clean-up on the other hand, well, that was a chore, but part and parcel of the package.

Enjoy!
