In the words of Harper, "my mom is the BEST COOKER EVER!" Only in my case, it actually is true - my mom really is the best cooker ever. Not only is she an amazing cook, she is self-taught, and we always had a delicious meal no matter how busy she was. On the two days a week that I go into my office, my kids usually get Mickey Mouse nuggets or Marie Calendar's chicken pot pies (can you tell we shop at Costco?), but I honestly don't remember a single frozen meal growing up. Even when we were remodeling the kitchen she got pretty creative with the microwave. Heck, my mom could even make Spam taste good. But some of my favorites are her cinnamon rolls, eggplant parmesan, scalloped potatoes, pear and Gorgonzola salad,Yorkshire pudding and roast beef, BBQ ribs, steamed artichokes, and a dessert we often begged for growing up which we called "Banana Slop" (graham cracker crust, banana pudding, fudge, whip cream - heaven for a 6 year old).
Mom, thank you for the yumminess!!
