“What special meals will your mom prepare while you’re in town visiting?”

“She’s spoiling me today with butter noodles and chamomile tea!”

“Wow! That’s a really interesting combination,” I said. “I’m going to have to make that and blog it!”

“Oh no, not together. 😂🤣😂🤣 Just plain buttered noodles and I’m drinking chamomile tea!”

“Oh! Hahahahahah. I think I’m going to make it anyway.”

And so I did.
Thank you, my honey, Dianela, for the delicious and accidental inspiration!
