The husband is out of town which means I am a free woman…well almost. My mom invited me out for dinner. Which I talked her into me coming over for dinner. Way better when the mother cooks for you and all you have to do is lay around on the couch and be lazy (not this time!). She said she would have to stop at the store but I told her nothing fancy a veggie omelet would be great!
So the grandbabies (the two weenies and the Ty Bo) and I headed over last night. She made artichokes, I ate two of them. She had also bought tofu and we decided to bake it but I had to run to the store for sesame and sesame oil (told you, no laying on the couch and being lazy). It turned out way better than the other two times I have made it. It still needed something. Marinating will be the next try for tofu. We also had an omelet with sauted mushrooms and Munster cheese. The mushroom were fabulous and my mom commented that her mushrooms are the best now after watching Julia and Julia – “Don’t crowd your mushrooms.” I was so full by this time. After about an hour she pulled out the dessert. See, going to mom’s is the bestest. Diabetic chocolate mousse with free cool whip. I had to roll myself out the door when I headed home. All full!
