Success!
I made soup from scratch last night. And I followed the recipe (almost) to a "T". I've just figured it out - I cannot follow any recipe exactly . But the only thing I did differently is to leave a spice out, which didn't affect the taste. My husband really likes split pea soup. I have been buying it occasionally in the can for him; but then I came across a easy-looking recipe, bought the dry peas, and waited until I had a ham bone leftover. I have never eaten this kind of soup, it was a first for me and my kids last night. And I loved it! Along with a loaf of yummy homemade oatmeal bread, I was quite satiated by supper. I'll post the recipe over on my recipe pages. And to round out the night, what could be better than watching the kids play Twister? Well, maybe giving them rides on Twister...
This is funny. My son told me that he put the word out at the high school (he's a freshman in college) that if you mess with his sister (freshman in high school) you'll answer to him. He's not talking just dating, or giving her a hard time. He put the word out to the older girls that like her no partying around her, watch their language, not to give her a ride if anything at all was questionable, etc. I laughed, and at the same time breathed a prayer of thanksgiving to God. Us parents that "throw our kids to the wolves" and send them to public school do it with a lot of apprehension, misgiving, and PRAYER!!!
