It's a special occasion. John and I celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary today. Last week we were in Los Angeles. We stopped for lunch at Whole Foods Market (we really like the hot food there). Anyway, I got Matzo Ball Soup. I've never had Matzo Ball Soup before that day. It was delicious. So, I found a decent recipe online and recreated it for tonight's dinner. I simmered the chicken practically all day and made my first Matzo Balls from a box. I was surprised they plumped up so much. I'll have to work on that and find a way to make them a little denser. Overall, the dinner was a success. I served the soup with a green salad with a lemon vinaigrette sprinkled with Herbs De Provence. We shared a store bought cupcake for dessert (it was the most weddingy cake we could find). And that's it. Oh, and Ginger was there. He likes Matzo Ball soup too.
