Dinner with Mom

Mom came over to shop and stayed for dinner tonight. I love how everything turned out. The menu was:
Grilled Chicken (seasoned with salt, pepper, amino acids, thyme and ginger)
Walnut Eggplant dish (recipe from Deborah Madison cookbook)
Grilled veggies (so-so, but a nice healthy sidedish)
Bread
Winter Fruit Whip for dessert (excellent)

Mom and I had a great time and dinner turned out so nice. She's pretty fun to cook for b/c she will try about anything as long as it's not too spicy. I added the Winter Fruit Whip to the blog, but not the Eggplant dish, yet. Can't wait to make it again. The walnut sauce that went on top was perfect.
