Today was our big shopping day. Lisa and I headed out this morning and met up with Audrey (Lisa’s best friend since childhood), Kadi (Chris’ girlfriend) and Addie (Kadi’s sister) for lunch at our favorite restaurant in Norman, Pink Elephant Cafe and Tres Cantina. We all enjoyed our yummy food and a nice visit then…
A bit of insight…
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it here or just on Dee’s Kitchen, but we are currently vegetarian. Well, if you want to be precise, we are lacto-ovo-pescetarians. In other words, we eat dairy, eggs and seafood (at least when in New Orleans), but no meat. It all started about a year ago when our…
Christmas Pictures…
I didn’t take nearly as many Christmas pictures this year as I usually do. I’m especially sad that our church Christmas Eve service had to be canceled due to “Oklahoma Blizzard ’09” because we have a long tradition of taking a family photo after the service while we are all dressed up.

I finally got the tree decorated last night. Today I will be finishing all the decorating and cleaning the house. Lord willing and the creek don’t rise….
Meatless Monday…
Not everyone is inclined to go vegetarian and even though we are currently eating mostly vegetarian, that may not be a long-term thing for us. Still, everyone can have at least one meatless day per week. There is a major campaign afoot to promote Meatless Monday and I just signed up, but did you know…
Menu Plan Monday…
Click above for more menu ideas. We did pretty well with our vegetarian eating last week. Chris ended up not being home Friday night so I added bacon to our “breakfast for dinner” meal but otherwise I did meatless meals all week. Lisa and I went to Norman on Thursday and we hit a couple…
Menu Plan Monday…
Click graphic above for lots more menu plans! You may notice something different about our menus. Our son, Chris, has decided to go vegetarian…again. He has done this several times, starting at age 5 when he realized that the cows at Nana’s and Papa’s were the source of the hamburger on his plate. I’ve always…
