Murphy helped “dad” cook dinner tonight. He was so cute hanging out in the kitchen while Mal made dinner–Murph never left Mal’s side! They’ve become really good buddies! 😀
The sauce was rich, thick, and tangy with a mild spiciness to it. It was especially amazing mixed with the sour cream and rice pilaf! Mmmmm!
When dinner was finished cooking, we sat down as a “family” at the dining room table. We enjoyed some delightful dinner conversation while eating our meals. 😉
I had a small glass of white wine before and during dinner.
For dessert, I enjoyed a scrumptious brownie. It was so incredibly rich and chewy! It was the perfect way to end such a wonderful meal! 😀
I’m exhausted from today, so I’m heading to bed early. Good night!
