A week of culinary delights.

There's nowhere to go from here but down. This has been a week of culinary rapture. First a few days back, Brigham/Christa invited us for Alice Springs Chicken.  I thought I had died and gone to heaven.  Next Erica/Chad invited us for Green Chile Chicken Encheladas.  I *love* those!  Then last night Katie/Brett and dog invited us over for Chicken Tikka Masala.  It was SO good it MUST be illegal.   I can't remember a time where I've had so many exceptional meals right in a row....and I've never considered myself a fan of chicken! I've decided chicken is just a tasteless filler/carrier used to supply us with other flavors of the things we put on it. Lucky for me, all of this is now on Brett's family recipe site! 

When I was a kid (walking uphill to and from school in bare feet in the snow jumping from fencepost to fencepost....) We had a couple of small grocery stores in Orem.  They had a meat dept, a bread dept, a vegetable dept.,  a dairy dept, and a canned goods aisle. The whole store could fit into 1/4 of today's large grocery stores.  The most exciting thing was when the Relief Society would hold a pot luck dinner and I got to try someone else's casserole.   Wow have times, and foods, changed.

On a side note, we watch the movie THE SOLOIST with B,K,dog and I wouldn't recommend it. 3/10 is all I could give it.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
