Tonight we had the Elders over for dinner.

There are transfers on Wednesday
and we are moving, so we wanted to say goodbye.
These Elders have renewed my faith
in 19-21 year old boys.
We love them.
Whenever we have the Elders over
I like to make them something nice.
Not just Mac and Cheese, ya know?

So I made broccoli cheddar soup
from scratch
with sourdough bread-bowls
(as it turns out, one of the Elders' mom always made soup
and bread-bowls on Superbowl Sunday growing up. smile)
and chicken wings with a tequila-lime glaze
(no, not actually tequila, I substituted agave nectar)
and Martinelli's to drink
and then we had these.....
Red Velvet Cake Cookies with
Cream Cheese and Vanilla Bean frosting.
From scratch, too.
They were so moist and delicious
I almost shed a tear when we sent the leftovers
home with the Elders.
It's for a good cause though, right?
And those good boys did leave us this
on our bathroom mirror
before they left:

Great Elders
and
Great Food
Love it!
