FOOD 4 THOUGHT FRIDAY

Food 4 Thought Friday

Thanks to Jodi.
I am at work, so I don't have any pictures - sorry!

Breakfast What was your favorite costume you ever wore for Halloween? Add photos if you want!
One year my sister in law helped me make the greatest spider costume that has eight long arms that are attached so that they move! When I wear it no one knows who I am!
Kim and I once went as rodeo clowns – we looked pretty great if I do say so! Also we went as half man/half woman once. Kim even shaved half of his moustache and beard for that one! It is the only time I have ever seen him without a moustache! He started growing it back the next day!!!!!

Lunch What are your Halloween traditions? Are you going trick-or-treating or staying home and passing out candy? How much do you get in the Halloween spirit? (three course lunch today!)
We ALWAYS have a pumpkin carving night were we carve elaborate pumpkins. Of course, Kim’s is always the best, and he takes the shortest time to carve it. Since BJ’s death we place a jack-o-lantern on BJ’s grave so that he can be included. However, for some reason Halloween snuck up on us this year, and we haven’t carved anything yet. Maybe we will carve for Veteran’s Day.
Since Kalel is going to be with his dad this year, and my kids are so old, and since we actually partied last weekend, I’m going to stay and work late and let Kim hand out candy.

Dinner Do you believe in Ghosts???? Why or why not?
To quote the lion from the Wizard of Oz, “I do believe in ghosts, I do believe in ghosts, I do believe in ghosts!” However the ones I believe in are kind and helpful – I guess they are more like angels!


Midnight Snack What is your greatest Halloween memory?
Carving pumpkins with my family, and years ago when my kids were little Kim would make chili and we would go to my mother’s house. We would take the kids trick-or-treating there, then come back to the house for chili and a good movie.

Recipe for this Week (instead of your recipe for life - what is it for just this week?)
Work and watch movies tonight – play region volleyball tomorrow – and prepare for my lesson for Sunday.

PLEASE PLAY !!!! Come on you know you want to!

Fun Day With Bubba

Image
Today Bubba and I had a great day! First we joined Ash and Tristan for a visit to the park. Bubba and Tristan ran and rolled and climbed and had all kinds of fun! Later, Kim and I had to run to Logan, so we decided that a quick trip to Willow Park was in order. Bubba was so excited to see all of the animals there. We saw turtles, geese, swans, cranes, peacocks, and deer. We watched an owl eating his dinner. We saw a couple of young antelope fighting - I think they were really just playing! We even saw a couple of wallabies! Of course, Bubba's favorite part was feeding the ducks! He got a little nervous if one got too close, but as long as they kept their distance, he had a blast throwing food to them. I'm sure that he just about wore himself out with all of the walking and running and playing. I know that I did!

Our 3 Minutes of Fame

Image
Whew Whoo! "Diana Ross" and we "Supremes" performed brilliantly at our recent Stake Lip Sync. Okay, maybe we weren't quite brilliant - but at least we did it! We had anticipated a little more time to prepare and since several of the acts scheduled to perform before us neglected to show up, we were not exactly warmed up, stretched, and in sync as we would have liked to be. I have had several constructive criticisms requesting that I never dye my hair black. Karen and Janet were terrifically fun to do this with!

Memories:  These vintage pictures surfaced this month.  I just love looking at old pictures remembering how things were - especially when the pictures are of loved ones who are no longer with us.  I love seeing Grandpa and Grandma surrounded by family.  They loved being with family!  This made me smile. Top:  Tasha, Grandpa Olsen, Grandma Olsen, Abby (?) Shandra, Natalie, Mickel, LaurieJo Bottom: Stephanie, Jan, Casey, Grandpa, Doug, Grandma, David, Ben, Justin Dennis, Barbara, Kim, Jody, Alicia Kalel Birthday:  Covid is still a constant threat, and I'm still working from home.  However, we did feel safe in having a family-only party for Kalel's birthday.  There is a new place here in town called Half  Axed.  We left Little Miss with Joey because we felt it would be just a little too dangerous for her and went to try our hand at axe-throwing. We had a marvelous time!  So much so that Kim has decided that he wants to build our own axe-throwing lane in our backyard!  I believe t
