we're all having a hard time moving over here because of the delicious meal we had today. Tom's cousin, Jose Maria, is visiting us for a few days and he is a chef! since today is Juanita's birthday, he made an extra special meal just for her.
I. won't. stop. eating.
He made leg of lamb, with mashed sweet potatoes, a mango salad and an eggplant dish that I can't pronounce (figures). and now the whole house smells like fresh thyme, too. yay!
this is the first person from Tom's mom side of the family I've ever met. it's a good thing he's cool, and that he can cook so deliciously, because he's setting the tone for the rest of the clan. so, today Juanita took the day off work and spent most of the day with her favorite person, Dean. speaking of Dean, he's finally warming up to Jose Maria. he still doesn't want to be held by him, but he doesn't stare at him like he's never seen anyone so threatening anymore.
...the man of the hour
...and the birthday girl (with Dean, of course). so glad to be able to spend your birthday with you, Juanita. we hope you have a very special one!
