Can't believe its the last week of July!
My talk on the pioneers went pretty well...not my best, but acceptable. Very glad its over! I really like writing talks, but delivery is getting harder and harder as I get older. I feel so nervous and like I can't catch my breath. But, so far, I don't think anyone in the congregation can notice.
Had a great afternoon yesterday at the new and improved Elm Creek Park playground. Gideon and his buddy and Christy and hers and I, along with pb&j's, apples, pretzels and homemade pickles.....and my knitting :) Yeah, love knitting outside at the park. It was a perfect day...warm, but breezy...great in the shade. And really what summer is all about. I'm glad we could finally have a day like that.
Great dinner last night. I'm trying to have us eat healthier and also trying to bring something new to the table. I found a recipe in Debbie Macombers Cedar Cove Cookbook. It was bowtie pasta with white beans, roasted peppers, garlic and spinach, with a splash of balsamic vinegar at the end, and a parmesan cheese sprinkle. And I roasted the peppers myself (which was really cool, btw). It was a little time intensive, but delicious.
What's for Dinner
Heading out to dinner tonight with my dear friends of 18 years, Anna and Emily, so the fam is having:
frozen pizza. (So, sue me...the healthy lasted one day). They are excited...which I'm trying to not let hurt my feelings :)
Today
Gid's buddy Josh is here all day, regular housework day, driving sister missionaries around for awhile, dinner with my friends.
Have a Blessed Day...be a blessing in someone else's life!
I enjoyed your talk Sunday. :) I even used part of it to go along with my visiting teaching message. You always do a great job. Can I just start coming over to your house for dinner?
