Monday we went to see Steve for further body tune-ups. He'd had a really busy day so he asked to delay our appointment til after dinner. He felt like a celebration of the new office so they opened a bottleof Veuve-Cliquot. Here's a group shot. Their dog-kids were even allowed in the office. That's Dr. Stevo on the left, son Jim, Laura,The Founder Jim and in front are Blackjack and Charlie (the Wonder Dog).
Laura was worried about what to have for dinner. "What would you have if we weren't here?" I asked. Omelettes and salad. Well, that sounds good to me. She put together another amazing salad and then son Jim volunteered to make the Mexican Omelettes. Laura told him all the ingredients but he put them together a bit differently....and he flipped each omelette in the frying pan. Wow! We were all suitably impressed. He only missed one of five so the stove got a bit gouped up!
Mexican Omelettes: Slightly cook 3 whipped eggs in butter (in omelette fry pan). Sprinkle with drained and rinsed black beans. Cook then flip and flip again. Sprinkle with chopped tomatoes, green onions and grated cheddar. Fold in half and top with salsa and onion. Sour cream and quacamole are also good toppings. Serve with champagne and good conversation :)
After dinner son Jim treated us to a fashion show of lumberjack apparel. He was getting psyched up for some woodchopping adventures.
Yesterday was a stay-at-home-and-get-things-done day. Three weeks of laundry was at the top of the list. While I worked on that I hinted that Jim should vacuum...and he did. He did a little fix-up and maintenance while I relaxed with a book, A Dry Spell. I picked it up in the laundry room and was immediately into the story so I was lost for the rest of the day in a North Dakota drought. We had TV dinners and I'd have to say they were garbage. After Laura's cooking nothing else compares.
