For some reason, neither of us were really hungry yesterday. Like, at all. And so, I never really made much of the food that I normally make. Lunch was rushed and on the go, as we had to run to get B's dad and brother from the airport. (They are here so B's brother can come to school here in the fall! Very exciting.) From there, we went out to dinner.
I do love the food here in Wheaton, IL. We went to The Bank Restaurant last night for dinner, and it was one of the more satisfying meals that I've eaten out in a long time. After starting off with a wonderful creamy chicken and rice soup and a dish called "Shrimp Yakotori" (wonderful, I assure you), I had an entree of beef stroganoff with fresh, housemade sour cream and a side of green beans. I might be having it again for lunch (it was quite a bit of food). B had a yummy swordfish dish with mushroom risotto, his brother had a crab meat salad (with tomatoes and goat's cheese, yum!), and his dad had a steak salad with potatoes and blue cheese. All in all, a wonderful meal that I'm sure B and I will be going to have again soon.
I topped it off with ice cream and peanut butter at home, but no one else joined me. Perfectly ok, since I'm the pregnant lady and have excuses to eat that kind of stuff.
This morning, it's kind of the same deal. Everyone is awake (finally) and we've all had our coffee, but no one seems to want to eat breakfast. I had a snack (because I would faint without it, I'm sure), and now everyone is off doing their own thing. I will probably make another batch of zucchini muffins with the giant zucchini I have from a friend, and B's dad loves my molasses sugar cookies, so perhaps a batch of those. We shall see what the day brings, as everyone plays around and works to their heart's content.
