Chef in Training

A few months ago, Mike and I were watching Diners, Drives, and Drive-Ins. For those that have never watched, they tour the country eating at various places suggested by viewers....oh and I guess I should mention the crazy host (chef) Guy Fieri. Well on one episode, they were eating homemade ravioli and I told Mike that he had to try Mom's! She was on board and we had plans to have a cooking day, but then Grandpa got sick and our plans were sidelined. Today was the big day though! We got there early to all help mom and dad prepare the dinner. Everyone had a hand in the cooking. Riley did not do as much dough cranking as we had thought, but Nana graciously took her place. After getting here second wind, Riley made cesar salad and a delicious soup. When everything was ready, we all gorged ourselves on dinner. It was soooo good and Mike keeps saying how he cannot wait to have it again. It was a great day of cooking and spending time with family.
