A-Z Munchin' Monday: The Kids Kan Cook!

Stretching it a bit to fit this week's letter, but I just didn't have that much to say about ketchup, and I was coming up short. So I am talking about my kids and, in this case, our son William, who hasn't eaten any meat since lent began, and who solved the problem of what to serve on Saturday when we all got together this weekend by cooking up a big ol' eggplant dish that, as it turns out, was delicious.

I have no idea what the amounts of each ingredient were, but I know he served it up with rice and included the following wonderful ingredients: eggplants, sliced flat and wrapped around feta cheese; cilantro leaves, olives, diced tomato and sauce. I am probably missing something, although it was fairly simple. But deelish. I knew our daughter knew her way around a kitchen, but who knew the lad would become such a chef?

Today he got back into the meat thing and we had a ham and potato casserole prepared by our "house chef". Also great eatin'.

I hope your Easter weekend has been a good one. Our Easter began with a sunrise service presented by the youth of our church, out at the reservoir, carefully located with the water to the east. The service was simple but profound, with the speakers competing with the ducks and geese and other assorted fowl. Now the kids have gone back home and the nest is again an empty one, aside from the dog, who is fairly well winded from a weekend with the "grand dogs".
