Jeremy and I were invited to Wendy and Wesley's house for lunch today to celebrate Dinah and Kevin's visit. Dinah won't remember any of this visit. She was sleeping in the chair. These pregnant ladies...
I was supposed to make dessert. So I made chocolate cupcakes. The ones that people saw were good. Several others weren't so good. Apparently the oven likes to burn the bottom of things. Really it was the oven's fault.
I tried to make Lime frosting for my chocolate cupcakes because I have an affinity for chocolate and lime. I found a nice recipe on cooks.com and proceeded with the ingredients. It made a very artificial looking green soup. I added a few thickening ingredients to it, and hoped that it would "set" on the way to the Whites. You know they live very far away. It could happen. Well it could, but it certainly didn't. Silly soup. But Wendy had made this lovely Raspberry fluff that perfectly matched the cupcakes.
Later Jeremy bought me a Stewart's Lime Soda. He likes me. :)

Awwww :)
aww!! sounds like a fun Monday. When is Dinah due?
Try something with rhubarb next time. That is always good. I bagged and froze four 2 cup packages for you!! (I picked, and J and M and M cut at least 50 cups!!!) Papa used about 30 lbs of that in the bakery, and I made really good rhubarb muffins, and some rhubarb crisp. I wonder if Kevin is the only rhubarb lover of the sons-in-law. Wesley doesn't like it either!! (He says no thanks.)
I do too remember! Proof: There was a green shirt, and you stood in front of the door, and Elizabeth ate pickle.
Thanks for the bag of things, by the way. I'm very glad to have so much nice stuff! :)
We had rhubarb coffee cake at the Whites on Monday, and Wesley ate that! He must like it at least a little.
@mama_of_twelve - Thanks Mama
What did Papa make with it in the bakery?
You're making me hungry.
