Found: a crepe stand nearby

T and I tried to see Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy today but sadly, it was sold out when we arrived. Boo! Our moods were immediately lifted upon seeing a crepe stand just by the theater...We got the Banana Split which was nutella (of the gods), bananas and toasted, chopped almonds in a warm crepe. You really can't go wrong with this as a snack. I finished the meatballs and sauce which filled 5 gallon-size ziplocs! I froze them and we will really enjoy these as our Christmas Eve feast next week. T and I are going to have pizza night this evening, and I am also going to make and freeze a pumpkin cheesecake for the holidays. Major day o' cooking. What fun!

Meatballs coming along, Tex

Y'all, look at my eldest son. I mean, can you even get over this outfit concoction that he seems quite comfortable in and enthused by? I love it. Hah! He is a sheriff; I'm not sure what role the shark pants play. The meatballs are coming along...I think I've got about half of them cooked. This recipe is SO worth it, but you really do need to plan to invest several hours. It's like getting highlights but you don't have to go anywhere and you get a good meal at the end. Mmm...
