Yummy Yummy

I have a very creative and adventurous husband. We've been getting Better Homes and Gardens for a couple years now (thanks to my sister Brooke!), and I'm the one who flips through the recipe section and goes "mmmm.... that looks good." And then I put the magazine away and never make it. Schub, on the other hand goes, "mmm.... that looks good. Let's get the ingredients and make it!" What a novel idea. So we have tried many new and fantastic recipes, thanks to him.
Well, the other night was one of those evenings when we had a lot of random stuff in the house, but I didn't have a dinner actually planned to make with anything. So Schub got on the computer and just started figuring out what in the world we could make with all the ingredients we had in the house.

This is what he came up with, and it was DE-LICIOUS.


I don't know what it's called, but it's salmon stuffed with cream cheese, herbs and garlic, topped with slivered almonds and parmesan cheese. yummers.

Back off Dog....She's Mine!!!

If we have learned anything about Nacho it is this...the dog likes to snuggle. If snuggling is going on and he isn't in the mix he starts whining. Lindsey thinks it's cute. I'm trying to train it out of him. Lindsey calls it torture. I call it rules, boundaries, and limitations. Anyway, the other night we sit down on the couch to watch a TV show on the computer. Of course, Nacho wants up on the couch too. Don't get me wrong, I like having him on the couch... sometimes, but its gotta be on my terms. He is only allowed up if his blanket is on the couch and I invite him. Well, he started off on his end of the couch, and before you know it, I look over and this is what I see....


he was making a move on my girl. So I said, "Que Pasa Perro?" and he said, "Whatchu talking about?" I said, "I'm talking about you making a move on my girl." He said, "Oh, this little senorita?" I said, "You got that right!" He said, "Oh yeah?!". Then he took off one of his gloves and slapped me in the face and challenged me to a duel. So we walk out into the middle of the street in front of our townhouse and all the neighbors came out to watch. Tumble weeds are blowing across the road and Lindsey is playing a gun fighting tune on her harmonica. It took us a while to settle on the rules. I said we should walk of 11 paces. But he kept yapping his jaws about about only being able to step off in multiples of 2 for some reason. I told him to hush up, and that it was his whining that got us into this in the first place. Anyway we walked it off and turn and drew. I beat him of course, because he can't fit his paws around the trigger. Don't worry I just blew his Sombrero off, he doesn't know how to play dead anyhow. Well, things are back to normal around here now. He knows its my pack and Lindsey is my girl, and that he's supposed to keep his tail at his end of the couch or its Adios Nacho....!

It's Official!!


Do you know what this is a picture of? My License. My License to preach. After hours of studying, hours of test taking (both oral and written), preaching before the Presbytery and being examined again before the Presbytery it is official. I have been licensed to preach the Gospel in the James River Presbytery. If you don't believe me, check out my license. I don't know what I was preaching with before, a learner's permit i guess.
