Pop Pop & Mimi came to visit for a day. The kids were so thrilled to see them! David immediately wanted Mimi & come to his room & play baseball. :) We saw Pop Pop last month when he came to stay with the kids & myself when Justin went to Austin for work. But, we haven't seen Mimi since early December. For dinner, I made a roaster chicken. We had cooked carrots (I got a 2lb bag at Aldi earlier in the week), baked potatoes & Italian Herb Bread (from the bread machine). For desert, I made a chocolate mousse pie.
Chocolate Mousse Pie
**I cheated making this pie. I used store bought pie crust. The truck that delivers food for Justin's store, was going to throw away a 3lb bag of chocolate mousse! Justin asked if he could have it since they were throwing it away. I used about half the bag for this pie. The pie crust box I bought at the store came with 2 crusts so we still have enough for one more pie!**
