He Cooks - Mama Snoozes


Ben was in town shooting the premier event for 
"Last Vegas" opening soon.
Convenient premier here in town to come see Mom
Is it a photo bomb when it is about you?


Adventurous cook always
Always loves to cook for me and others
He has a lucky girlfriend and friends 
Always delicious
Chicken with red peppers onions and lemon 
steamed in parchment
Paired with pasta made with basil,
 avocado and lemon pesto ( missed pic)


Loved this wine we tried..
then I needed a nap


He also makes a mess when he cooks 
and he always cleans it up.

Dearest son heads back home today...
60 some days till he's back for holidays,
and baby sister will be here also...

That was certainly a shot in the arm for you to have your son pop in, and cook and drink wine and clean up!! Perfection! How enjoyable and fun!
Oh, and we are all loving your pumpkins. They are so perfect!

Yummy! Nothing better than spending time with a son! Got to visit mine for a couple of days while we were in Texas!

He's a gem!! I like that idea of steaming the chicken in parchment. May have to give that a go sometime.

I just love your posts! I actually check them out when there's a slow time at work. This post as well as many others have definitely put a smile to my face. Thank you for sharing your personal side and your designer side. Have a good day!

Loved this post... good to see your son cooking for his mama. Looked wonderful too!
That mess was nothing compared to my mothers mess when she cooks... somehow she always uses every pot and pan in the house.
Blessings today

We were at The Aria the night of that event, taking in the Zarkana show...all the photogs and press were standing within feet of us, as we waited for our car at the valet afterwards. Looks like a fabulous weekend - so happy for Mamma!
