    Sorry!

    Sorry I've been sooooo absent lately! I've just been very, VERY busy! My bff has been off on vacation days, and seems to think I should spend more time with her when she's home all week!! She's about to kill me! We also had an Auxiliary meeting last week. Very weird stuff going on there! And I will be on the board for ANOTHER YEAR!!! Just shoot me now! Anyhoodle... my bff and I decided to make some Chinese food.. we used to do this fairly frequently.. it's somewhat hard, and time consuming.. but absolutely wonderful. So, we made our menu, bought our stuff, and Saturday I went to town to chop and slice, and spend the night so we could start early Sunday to feed 6 or 8 people.. It was a wild time, folks.. but we finally prevailed. Then, we did it again today!!! We're nothing if not psychotic! But, I must say, we are the queens of Chinese food. You won't get food that good in the buffet line.. and you'll never find egg rolls that good!! We made: egg rolls(40), crab rangoon(100), sweet and sour shrimp, beef and vegetables in oyster sauce, fried rice, steamed rice, and banana pudding for dessert. Every bite was homemade, chopped, sliced, etc from scratch.. not a pre-prepared bite in the bunch!! J thinks it was harder than I do.. I think the main thing was just not having done it for a while, it was hard to get organized. It was much easier today.. but, umm umm good! And this weekend is our Soup and Chili Luncheon with the Auxiliary!! Next week I'm collapsing, as I so richly deserve to!!lol So, sorry I haven't been around for a while.. I'll be back!!

    That sounds so good! I made crab rangoon once and it took a long time to make just a few- but you made 100! Wow!!
    I hope you are doing well.

    Good morning Jean…

    I just sat down with my cup of coffee and thank you for visiting Blog Pad. Especially with your busy schedule. Yes, there is a lot more to the book of Job then meets the eye. But then with God’s Word to us if we go to Him with an open heart and ears more is revealed. I know you already understand.

    One of my personal lawyers said that with my ordeal I remind him of Job. Thank God I did not have all those boils too! Geesh! But I do like to think I have come out better on the other side and am thankful that I am available to be a dad for my children.

    Nope…We didn’t blow away. But we did have a pretty serios rain storm go through here around 12 noon. Before you know we will be good and hot for summer. But for me that’s a lot better than winter.

    You all be well down there…Greg

    Wow! How ambitious of you! I've never made chinese food. Too intimating.
    Do you know how to make that garlic, oil, red pepper flake w/ chopped green onion sauce? If so, send it to me.

    p.s. (I may have just figured out the recipe.)

    Anyhoodle....I love it! I may just use that in my blog!!

    xoxo
