Meal Success!

I cooked quite the meal tonight for dinner. My parents came over (we were swapping furniture - a love seat and a sewing machine cabinet for a side table and a sort-of end table) and so I did a nice dinner for four.

Mom was my sous chef so the ladies were in the kitchen while the men elsewhere talking. And let me tell you, that's odd for when we get together. Dad and Dan usually cook while Mom and I chat! But it was a lot of fun - and very yummy - so I think it worked out well!

Yummy Dinner

The menu was: Salmon with Mustard Dill Sauce, Mexican Cheese Salad and Summer Frittatas. All of the dishes were really simple (proven by the fact that I cooked them) but really good (proven by the fact that everyone cleaned their plate).

The frittata I think was my favorite mostly because of the veggies but also because of all the other things I'd like to put in one. Plus, any omelet I don't have to flip, fold or otherwise mutilate is a-okay in my book. The fish was cooked differently - it caused quite a bit of smoke but was so good, I'll be doing it again when I cook fish. Just see if I can't figure out how to decrease the smoke... And the salad had avocado, my current constant craving.

All in all, a super-successful meal. Yay!
