Yesterday am.... and today am....

Since it's Thanksgiving and a lot of us will be doing cooking ....and just sometimes it's hard to get good help!  Here's what George Bachmeier (LASD ret) sent... LOL:

A caring husband sees that his wife is busy in the kitchen with the turkey, stuffing, gravy, etc. so he offers to help. "My dear, what can I do to help you?" Says the wife, "Take this bag of potatoes, peel half of them, and put them in a big pot to cook."

 

 

Yesterday I made the Peanut Butter Fudge ,soooo soooo easy, that I put on my blog on 11-20 (archives on the left). OMG, I was licking the pan!!! Gonna make this again and again. If you haven't made it, and I know this is not the day for new recipes, but YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT! I used the white chocolate morsels but you could use the chocolate ones... next time!

Last night I had a phone call from a former Temple Deputy, Bill Riordan, who worked with Jerry. Super nice guy. We had a great long chat. Been years since I have seen him. I'm looking forward to the Laughlin reunion this next year to catch up with a lot of folks.
 
All I know. Happy Turkey Day. Nuff said. Ciao.
