friends with babies

Little Luca made his appearance so we spent the day in kitchen making meals and goodies for the new parents. (Michelle, I wish we were a little closer so I could bring you and Miss M some freezer fillers too!)

It was unfortunate that it was also the day Wren decided to have a marathon cry session lasting from morning till evening. But we survived and their bellies are full for a few days as well as ours. 

Apparently my skills at judging how much food two people can reasonably consume at a meal have gone out the window and I now only know how to cook for armies. 

On the menu:
Mom's Hamburger Soup
Sweet and Sour Chicken Meatballs
Curried Fruit and Beef Stew
Brown Basmati Rice
Banana Cupcakes
Herb Bread
