Papa Bruce’s Birthday Dinner

Last Monday, we had Papa Bruce (Brandon’s Dad) over to celebrate his Birthday a couple days late. Brandon and I cooked him some of his favorite foods (Meat, Potatoes & Asparagus) and made him his favorite dessert (Carmel Brownies w/Ice Cream). After dinner his friend Ramona stopped by to have dessert with us and then we ended the evening with a fun card game (Seven). It was a fun night honoring Papa Bruce’s life and the wonderful Father/Grandfather he is :)

For dinner I decided to try something new, A Seasoned Rubbed Beef Tenderloin with a Caper & Pepper Salsa to top it with. For Sides we made my always crowd pleasing Honey Roasted Potatoes and some Oven Roasted Asparagus. Yum, yum, yum, dinner was AMAZING!!!!!

Brandon’s dad LOVES Ooey, Gooey, borderline undercooked Brownies. I threw in some homemade Carmel Sauce to the batter for an added surprise since B & his Dad LOVE Carmel.
