What Goes Down When Mama's Not Around

Since our recent move in to our new home and all of the Hurricane Sandy drama, I have spent very little time at Va Beh' during dinner service. Saturday night, I decided to go in. Michele opted to stay home with the kids. Cool. 

Now don't get me wrong. I am not a jealous person and I don't covet much. I have been cooking like crazy every night that I have been home, some pretty elaborate meals, whether it was just Jada and I or our extended family coming through. But, my husband and kids had a party without me! Look at the grins on these two girls over braised rabbit, fried branzino, polenta and my butternut squash soup to boot!

Look at Jada unapologetically going in on the "bunny rabbit"!

And this shot of Asia is just plain mean! The relish and the joy on this kid's face!

I think it was this last photo that sent me over the top. I replied back to my husband's smug photos and text, "Oh. This is what goes down when Mama's not around??" 

":)", is all I got back. 

SMH.
