She Cleaned Out The Fridge...

I got a call from Momba yesterday (that's my mother-in-law, at least that's what we call her...) She cleaned out her fridge, cooked up what was in there and invited us over for dinner. I LOVE to hear her say those words. For most of us, the mental picture we get of cleaning out the fridge brings up images of moldy bread, smelly old roast, empty pickle jars (who is the culprit who takes the last pickle and leaves the jar of juice??? do they think I need the juice for something?!!!!) -- but not Momba. When she cleans out the fridge this is what we get:

The menu included the heavenly salad with grilled chicken (pictured above), stuffed artichokes, angel hair pasta with fresh vegtables in a light sauce, something that is fabulous but I don't know how to spell...here goes beurachs (if you know the spelling, please correct me!), and for dessert, a lemon Italian Love Cake. If you've never had an Italian Love Cake, you are missing out on one of the most delicious, moist and down right YUMMY desserts ever. The lemon was an experiment for her, and it was divine. A slice of heaven right there on the plate.

We had a great time just hanging out, we went home feeling blessed and FULL.

Well...I know where you can come get some lessons...but you'd have to be willing to leave the East Coast...hint.hint.
