The Food Fairy

The other day I mentioned the "food fairy" who makes things and shares with the neighbors.  Nancy ask "there is a food fairy"?  Well Nancy, there is here.  Her name is Jodi and she's my youngest sister.  She's single and loves to try out recipes she finds online.   Fortunately for us, she has never learned to cook for just one and no one, I mean no one is willing to help her do that.  As the weather gets colder she is always making some kind of soup on the weekends.  Last weekend it was chicken gumbo.  She loves soup, as do we, and here she makes a large amount so as to take to work all week, and we all benefit.   My girls have decided we will get her something nice as a thank you.  I think they have Jennifer Aniston perfume in mind. 

IT'S A GIRL!
Granddaughter Steph and her boyfriend Jarett had the ultra-sound yesterday morning and called shortly after to let us know.  We're all so happy for them.  Though their biggest wish was for a healthy baby, they leaned toward a girl.  Now all we grandma's (there's 4 on our side) can start the shopping fun.  Of course everyone has ideas for names, lol.  Carson already told the it should be "Carson".  I'm thinking Nicole has other ideas ;-).   

It did manage to get to 74 (for what I would call a minute) yesterday. At least it seemed it went as fast as it came.  Had some storms in the state last night that left some damage, with a couple trees down.  I think one on a house somewhere.  No one hurt though.  Thank the Lord.

Well, it's almost time for Darla to come for lunch so I'm outta here. 

Have a good day.

  4. I think that's a ery kind thing to do, sharing your over abundant food, I'm sure the recipients appreciate it, i too like soup, though sorry to say I freeze my surplus. But I love when any visitors stop over for lunch and I can give them a nice plateful with home made bread.
    Congratulation to Steph and Jarrett, so exciting for them, keep us updated, and of course on the oh so important NAME.

  5. I meant to add that reaching 70 is a good feeling, my family gave me a big party, but now I've reached my 75th, I'm slightly beginning to realize that time's marching on rather quickly. LOL
