Just F.Y.I.

Dear Parents,

When you move away to a foreign country such as Mexico, please don't send your NON-Spanish speaking child to school without having someone with him/her all day to translate. That way, when your child has a COMPLETE meltdown, at least somebody will know what they hell they are talking about. That is also especially helpful when they are supposed to ride a bus and they can't tell you which one they ride.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Smith

Damn, I'm a good cook!

I just wanted to toot my horn tonight. For those of you who have ABSOLUTELY no idea who I am and what I like to do let me tell you...yah, yah, yah, I'm a teacher but when I come home I LOVE to cook! I've been "selling" (and I use that term loosly)Pampered Chef for the last, well it will be 5 years in April. Whew! Time has sure flown by. So anyway, I love to cook! I don't get to do it very often, but this week I've cooked 3 nights in a row. Sunday I made chicken marsala, Monday I made white bean tuscan soup, and tonight I made artichoke chicken with roasted potatoes. All three meals have been SUUUUUUUUUPER!

Tomorrow I go to the dietitician and she better not put stars on anything! I've been really pretty good this week with the exception of Friday. The scale says I've been good, so I'll let you know. So far I've lost about 10 lbs. Not enough, but not too bad...

Oh yeah, my school is selling Smart Cards, so you better buy one or I'll have to hunt you down and kick your ass! :-)

Happy Tuesday!
