Home-Cooked Meals

I had a really good streak of eating really good food this week. And I helped! Tuesday was AI at Kayla and Larry's. It was also Cinco de Mayo. So I cooked fajitas. I did it differently than I have in the past, but they were really good. On Wednesday, I cooked dinner for Robert and Crystal, and we had spaghetti and meat sauce. On Thursday, I went to play cards at Wayne and Tina's. Wayne cooked some excellent red beans and rice, and the cornbread was out of this world. Another plus -- I didn't lose any money.

Sara's graduation party was Saturday. Her folks threw her a very nice party, which included 100 pounds of boiled shrimp, cheesecake flown in from New York, and all the beer you could drink. I gave Sara a nice portfolio/notepad holder, and included a short note with some advice now that she's a lawyer. I hope she liked it, or at least laughed a couple of times when she read it. Brian asked me to say grace before we ate, which I was happy to do. I ended the night by jumping into the pool. Ronnie said he was going in, I told him I'd follow him, and in he went. I had the good sense to empty my pockets. I take this as proof that I wasn't too drunk.

Saturday was more low-key. After Mass, I spent the evening hanging out with Buck. Sunday I went out on the lake with the Hables and the Murphys for Mothers Day. We had a very relaxing afternoon.
