Happy (Late) Graduation Dinner, Gigs!

I did something today that I haven't done- ever.
I cooked meat.  Today we celebrated Gigs graduating from high school- 
just a few months late, and he requested I cook something from 
So, I cooked meat.  And while pregnant, too.  
It really took me back to my childhood, watching my mom salt and pepper
our Sunday roasts.  Good memories.
My cooking meat is a big deal, and this
first attempt was about what I imagined.
Overcooked and tough.
But we had a fun time celebrating Gigs and ALL his accomplishments, 
including his pending mission!  It's all coming so fast.
I am so grateful I felt well enough to do this today.
And grateful he was a good sport to put on his cap and gown 
for this family celebration.
And grateful for all my beautiful blooms in the garden.
