bling

Well, Elle got some new bling. See her new necklace? Guess who bought her that? Real hard question ;)

Pat brought us both some fun prizes from South Bend. Yesterday (4 days after he had returned home) I noticed the little Fighting Irish guy in the bottom corner of the rear window in my car. I can't believe it took me that long to see it. So sneaky...

I was a little bored yesterday - I was on call at work so couldn't do anything too crazy, so I cooked! I made these little cookies covered in powdered sugar, some chicken salad and most important - FRIED OKRA!

I have never attempted to make Mom's okra until last night. I may or may not have burned the 1st batch. Here it is...just a cookin'!
