Happy Birthday, Mom!

Yesterday was my Mom's 78th birthday. My niece Rose loves to cook, so we had another dinner out here at the farm that Rose created. She chose the menu, made up two shopping lists so she and her sisters and I could have a competition to find the stuff, and then created the meal. (I supplied the pot cleaning and washing.) She had two appetizers: 7-up biscuits and and fried mozzarella cubes. She had two salads: a fruit salad and a chefs salad, with homemade french dressing. The meat was a coke roast. Yummy. And she finished it off with home-made chocolate cake and cheesecake frosting. All made by hand. She's 12.

I don't cook that much in a month!
