Thought you could all start the weekend with a good laugh.
I decided that since it is mother's day weekend I would make a lemon meringue pie. Ed is not a fan of this dessert so I justified the decision with it is my weekend. Good for me.
So I head into the kitchen with Joe in tow. We juiced the lemons and zested them. OK I did this while Joe pulled things off the counter and closed the refrigerator on my hands. I poured my ingredients together and whisked until things boiled, then I carefully tempered the egg yolks and was so proud when they did not scramble. I whipped my meringue into beautiful white peaks and browned it perfectly in the oven. Alton Brown would of been proud of me.
My pie cooled and I just cut into it to have my first piece only to discover I had made a wonderful lemon soup. Oh well practice makes perfect and I will enjoy my soup pie.
Joe has had a good week. He had a fun moment with Daddy this week. They were in the music/office room and daddy picked up his guitar. Joe immediately picked up a guitar pic and cruised over to do some strumming. Papa was very proud.
It is getting late, especially considering Joe woke up at 3 am and did not go back to sleep until 6am. He was chattering away laughing and having a good old time.
So off to bed I go, Love you all Nikki

I'm still impressed even though it turned out like soup. I couldn't do half of what you do in the kitchen. You are cool.
Wanna come visit? I'll eat lemon soup with you. :-)
