Now since I can't post without with a few photos of our two girls...here they are spending the morning home and just having some fun!
(did I even mention that these two little monkeys of ours can really get into some trouble!)
Our Chinese New Year Menu!
Roasted Tomatoes
Homemade Fettuccine Alfredo (another one of Francesca's favorite dishes)
Garlic Bread Sticks
Italian Style Salad
For Dessert, I am making Colleen's from "The Nut House" Fruit Cobbler that will be served with some ice-cream.
As you can see, we are not having Chinese food...and if you have been following this blog for some time you would remember that we never have Chinese food for CNY. Why? ~ Francesca just doesn't like it and since this holiday was all about her...and now her little sister we decided to let her pick out the menu and from than on out we have just stuck with our tradition and have something Italian. In our opinion, you can't go wrong there!
(we usually celebrate CNY at Grandma's house with her homemade tuna fish sauce - a favorite of Francesca' - but with less than a week's recovery under her belt from her emergency surgery, I am hosting CNY at our house!)

The Crayon Factory sounds delightful. Wish I could go along!
You should call it Adoption celebration day! We love Italian, also but Chinese is my favorite going out for food. And I do make a pretty good egg drop soup!
