Week in Review: Just a typical Saturday in Kendallville. Got up. Drank some coffee. Walked down to the Number 2 Fire Station on Drake Road to hear what Bill Clinton had on his mind. Drove to Fort Wayne for a haircut. Came home and made seven (7) SEVEN pans of lasagna for a confirmation dinner on Sunday, then made a couple of sheet cakes for a birthday party. I also subbed three days last week, and managed to get in on a tornado drill, a lockdown drill, and a fire drill. Also, on Friday I subbed for 4th grade, and when we were outside after lunch, some crazy dog was running around on the playground. He jumped into the sandbox, flopped down, kicked sand, ate sand, and threw sand, then he'd run around the swings and dive back into the sandbox. Very entertaining



That bit about the nose hair scissors for Mother's Day last week, I was just kidding. Oh, you can get me nose hair scissors, if you want to, but I suggest you tape them to the side of a bottle of Chanel No. 5 cologne or body lotion.







Bob and I, we are not crazy about chocolate Tootsie Pops. We don't know why they even make chocolate Tootsie Pops. Of course, we strive for the chewy, chocolate center, but we want a fruity outside, not a chocolate one. Anyway, we're getting quite a collection of chocolate pops, so if you like them, let me know. I'll bring them over - but not to Ohio or Michigan - just if you're in the vicinity. I'll put them in a decorative bag and hang them on your doorknob - like a May basket. Seriously, leave a message on the blog if you want them. (They're delicious, long-lasting, and only 50 calories!)



Here's Rob and Candace at prom last week.





















More pictures from Melissa's wedding last week.

Recipe of the Week: At our Sunday Night Candlelight Supper we had lasagna, (wouldn't you know it) salad, fluffy white rolls, and for dessert, key lime pie. Here's the recipe:

Key Lime Pie
3 egg yolks
2 cans of Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 cup Nellie & Joe's Famous Key West Lime Juice
1 graham cracker crust

Mix egg yolks, milk, and lime juice. Pour into crust and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Chill and garnish with lime slices and whipped cream.
