My neighbor invited us to dinner with her and some of her friends last night. It was nice to be included, even nicer to get to have an adult conversation and get out of the house. Monkey had a good time playing with all the other children and watching movies. All the adults enjoyed a delicious dinner of steak, potatoes, salad, and of course dessert. Everyone brought something. I volunteered to bring dessert because I love to bake. I tried a new recipe, chocolate fudge brownies. I was a bit worried about how they would turn out, but they turned out alright. Everything we ate was fantastic! I learned a lesson though…I can feed the baby, chat on the computer, talk on the phone, and wipe a runny nose all at the same time, but I can not feed the baby and cut a steak! That’s the beauty of dinner with the ladies, there is always someone that will take over baby duty!
