At 3:30pm I got a call from my Aunt Mary. She and my Uncle Greg were in town to see the Picasso exhibit at the SAM. They wanted to know if we were free for dinner. YES!!! What a treat to get to see them:) Katie and I stopped getting the ingredients together for the cookies we were about to make and got ready to go. Thankfully, we had only measured out flour when we got Mary's call. They wanted to meet at Ivar's on the waterfront. What an easy place to meet them! It is just a couple blocks away from Ben's office and the company parking spot was open for us to use:) Our PEPS gathering was tonight too, so we only got an hour with them before we had to head back to West Seattle.
For dinner, Ben had fried plump tiger prawns and a salad. Katie ate french fries, oyster crackers, and a bite of cod. She really only wanted to color on her menu. I had a bowl of wild Alaskan smoked salmon chowder, which was fantastic, and some of Katie's uneaten fish. Greg had a bowl of clam chowder and helped Mary finish off her fish and chips.
At PEPS Ben and I limited ourselves to just a couple bits of baked macaroni and cheese each. Oh...it was SOOO good. Naomi said it was from a gourmet cook book which doesn't cut corners on getting the recipe right.
It was a really great night!!!
