Dinner and Gelato Cones
This past Sunday, as usual, the kids visited and we had a nice afternoon and evening together. Dinner was a tasty herb encrusted pork roast and, to be honest, I really didn't think it would go over all that well with the kids. I was completely wrong though! The kids each had three platefuls of pork, roasted potatoes and gravy. Less popular were the carrots but they did have a serving each. Their lack of interest in the carrots also surprised me because these carrots were in a butter and brown sugar glaze which I thought they would really like. Truth be known, I won't eat carrots without a glaze like this! Typically after dinner, we usher the kids quickly into the bathroom for showers. This time we tried something a little different before showertime. We had some black cherry gelato in the freezer so we put a scoop or two in a couple of ice cream cones for the kids. That, too, went over well and excited the kids! Their laps were covered in melted gelato by the time ...
