It’s been ages since I posted and even longer since I did the Thursday Three. What shall I write about???…Oh, I know! But first some background (this is cut and pasted from something I shared on an email list last night): I hadn’t eaten dinner tonight so after choir rehearsal I decided to pick up…
This Never Happens…
Every morning, or sometimes the night before, I make a list of what I need to do for the day. In part, this is so I can actually remember what I need to do. Mostly it’s so David can see a list of items checked off and realize I actually do something other than watch…
New Orleans…here we come!
We’re off on another fun-filled vacation to New Orleans. We’ll be gone through the 28th and I’m sure I will return with lots of great stories to share.
Bread Recipe
I was asked to share my bread recipe so here goes. I should point out that this is designed for use in a Bosch mixer and makes four large loaves. Mix the following ingredients in your Bosch at speed 1 or 2: 6 c. warm water 1/2 c. powdered milk 1 T. liquid lecithin 3/4…
Baking…
My sister-in-law gave me some Amish Friendship Bread starter which I have been mushing and feeding per instructions. Today was baking day. I haven’t made this for years and had forgotten what it was like. It’s pretty good, although quite rich. I must admit it was hard for me to purchase the instant vanilla pudding…
I won!

Good dinner
My parents are retiring and today was their last day at work. I invited them over for a little celebratory dinner tonight. I made jambalaya from the recipe I got from a friend in New Orleans, homemade potato salad, layered salad (lettuce, bell pepper, green onion, celery, frozen peas, hard boiled eggs, bacon, cheese, more…
Two years…too long
Is it possible to be homesick for a place where you’ve never lived? I don’t believe in reincarnation but if I did I would swear I once lived in New Orleans. I was strangely captivated by the city on my very first visit and each time I return it feels like going home. And that…
My name is Deanna and I’m 45 years old
Whew! I wrote it and it didn’t kill me. I’m generally not all that freaked out by birthdays but they do tend to make me reflective, sort of like New Year’s Eve. I was awake rather early this morning, lying in bed trying to go back to sleep. That rarely works so I found myself…
