Sunday Dinner
Zac just made me scrambled eggs and toast and chocolate milk for dinner. I loved it! It was very nostalgic for me. Growing up, Sunday nights were the one night a week that we were each on our own for dinner, or we ate together but had a low-key meal. We always went out to eat lunch after church and had a big meal, so Sunday nights we often had grilled cheese or scrabled eggs or just a bowl of cereal of something. Something just feels right about having a light meal on Sunday night, as you get ready for the week ahead. Zac and I had some nice conversation over dinner. When I told him about my childhood Sunday night meals, we started comparing favorite foods as a kid and other stuff. For example, neither of us had French Toast growing up, but we both loved Cinnamon Toast. :) I liked to drink chocolate milk on occasion, and Zac drank Strawberry milk. Haha, we have been married four and a half years and had never talked about all this until tonight. Funny huh? It sounds so petty, but having scrabled eggs tonight, on a Sunday night, it made me feel very at home, and reminiscent. We hope to pass on little "unofficial" traditions like this to our kids.

Baw and Nancy got in town about 3:30 today. We ate at Kerbey Lane and Baw, Papa, and I all had eggs of some sort for dinner. Baw and I had pancakes too. They were yummy! How sweet of Zac to fix you eggs for dinner. Zac cooking Sunday dinner is a good tradition to start!!!
Now I'm in the mood for scrambeled eggs and chocolate milk. I bought choc. milk a few weeks ago just for fun / nostalgia, and gave madeline a glass. For a whole week she kept on telling me we needed to go to the store to buy more "other" milk.
