Good morning! Lin- The recipe contest idea is interesting. I usually follow recipes, though when I think about it, I often change them, since I might not have exactly what they want, or I know the kids will want it a bit different. Maybe I can learn something! I will definitely look into it! S13 picked up a recipe card for a banana/pineapple/cream cheese dessert at the grocery store the other day. I bought all the ingredients, and he made it all by himself Tuesday! It was good. Need to teach him a bit more about the cleanup part, though!
Thanks for your comments, BA. I guess I have to laugh, how else could I get through? I don't know about the lessons, though. They sure are not seeing a good example of a marriage, from either my W or me. Some days I think they'd be better seeing no example rather than what we've got. But, you guys have really been helping, so we'll see what happens.
It has really been helpful for me to have you women in particular listening and giving advice. It really helps to see that I am not completely crazy! It is different than if the same things was coming from a guy, you know?
Well, the washer isn't running, and that needs to be remedied! I think I my need to get a bullwhip out today, and get the slaves working! (You guys know I am joking there, right? I might have to raise my voice a little to get their attention, but won't beat them.......much! Maybe I will bribe them with a dinner out?)
