Thursday's thoughts...

Last night we had birthday salmon supper with dad and mom D.  Mom-in-law celebrated another year and we are thankful for her once again.  Here is the obligatory shot of the MYP with grandma.  I like it.

Lots of people I know that I really like are all in a very warm place soaking up sunshine, feeling sand between their toes, and eating abundantly.  Since I did not board a jet with my beloved and am not sitting on a beach, I think I'll stir up a slushie, add some extra wood to the fire, and pretend I'm there.  Sorta.  Or not.

The light fixture saga is over.  The Chairman was beyond patient with me when I told him I basically broke the light fixture.  Mr. Friendly Electrician came this morning.  He did his thing for approximately 7 minutes.  Showed me how to remove the glass in the future without creating havoc.  And left with a couple of my $$ in his wallet.  He was very fair and so I'm glad of that.  Let that be a lesson to all you over-achieving homemakers out there.  Just don't clean the light fixtures.  Ha!

I'm in love with popovers.  They are incredibly easy to make as long as you have this kind of pan.  Since there is essentially no oil in the recipe, it gives you free rein to slather on some good Wisconsin butter and let it get all melty in the crevices and mmmm.  I ate three in a row the other night.  It was worth the belly ache.

Sometimes I think about posting recipes that have been wild successes here at the Chairman's place.  But then I think we all have different taste buds and the same worldwide web of recipes, so maybe not.  Will have to see on that.

I need to go waddle off a few extra popovers.  Plus the dog sighs heavily behind me waiting very impatiently.  So away we go!
