A Typical Saturday Dinner

We had cake for dinner:


And Fries with ketchup for dessert.


Or is that an A-Typical dinner? Meatloaf and mashed potato cake with pound cake fries and strawberry ketchup. I think my Mom was fooled the most. She walked in while we were having dinner and we offered her a piece of cake. She took a loooooonnngg look before someone told her what it really was.

Speaking of Mom, she came out last night so that The Husband and I could go out to hear a friend's band. As a thank-you I bought her some potted tulips and left them on the kitchen table. This morning I told her that they were for her. She gave them another loooong look and said that she and Younger Daughter saw them this morning and thought they were so pretty in the kitchen. Then Y.D. put them in a pretty matching basket and everything -- so why don't we keep them here for now and give her the bulbs when the blooms are gone. So essentially we are thanking my Mom for driving an hour and spending the night with dead flowers.
