Double Birthday Dinner

Up early this morning. I had myself a sunny breakfast, a navel orange and one of my strawberry oatmeal muffins made with my multi muffin mix.

 

 

Today with dinner at Mom's we were celebrating both my grand daughter Mary's 1st birthday and also my Aunt Lynda's birthday which happens to be the day before Mary's. 

Here's what's was on the dinner menu.

Turkey Cutlets

 

  

Pepper Cube Steak

 

Pineapple Chicken

 

Orange Chicken with rice and veggies

 

Southwestern Salad

 

Stir Fry Veggies

 

Stuffing

 

Angel Biscuits

 

Broccoli Casserole

 

Brown Rice

 

Italian Pasta Salad

 

Mashed Potatoes

 

We also had veggie egg rolls, which I didn't get a shot of, but I did have on my plate. This is my plate. I had stir fry veggies, brown rice, an angel biscuit, southwestern salad, broccoli casserole and of course, the egg roll. I was stuffed after all this.  

Now here are the birthday girls.

Here are a few shots of the present opening.

This baby racked up. 

 Now for cake or should I say cakes. Yes, we had two. This is a shot of the Strawberry cake courtesy of  La Patisserie and my sister Cathy, photo courtesy of Mom.. It was so yummy, we didn't get a photo before the first cuts.

  Mom also had a special little cake for Miss Mary, chocolate with white icing.

We had to let Mary have her first cake experience. Confession, I experienced a small piece of each cake. Didn't get a shot of it either, but it was good.

Mary, not sure about this stuff at first. No worries though, she quickly got the hang of it. Unfortunately my camera died. I think I am just going to start charging my battery every Saturday night, so that I don't have this problem again.

We had a ball with the kids. 

After I got home, I had to charge my camera battery, which delayed dinner #2. I used some leftover rice, red and green bell peppers, onion and salsa to make a sort of spanish rice. I had the rice with some refried beans and another spinach and cheese quesadilla. The rice turned out great.
