my heart will go on

1. Okra from Mr. Glass
Mr Glass is one of our sweet neighbors. He is probably in his early 80's and he is a hoot. He and his wife have a garden in their back yard and they give us vegetables whenever Jerry comes over to help him with something.


I had never cooked okra so i had Mrs. Glass tell me how to cook it. So i did it just like she said. Fried.




I hardly ever eat anything fried so cooking this was a first. (Well maybe this isn't that big of a landmark because i probably have only cooked 5 legitimate meals in my life.) Anyways it was a vegetable for crying out loud so i figured it could slide under the radar.


And why not eat a hamburger with your fried okra?


Jerry was elated :)

2. Nov 20th

Dawntoya's little baby girl Zip is due on my birthday so i feel like i have special rights to brag about her. :)

3. Titanic
The movie got me again. Seriously, every time I watch it I get my hopes up that this time they will use better wisdom. 'NO, don’t accelerate!! Maybe there are enough lifeboats this time??!!! AGH! I just want Jack and Rose to live happily ever after!! IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR???!!!!'

4. Lame

Sorry this post is lame. I have started blogs that are a bit closer to my heart but the words kept falling short. I found myself militantly yelling at them like a drill sergeant, 'STAND UP STRAIGHT!' ' TUCK THAT SHIRT IN!' but they have not cooperated thus far.

Maybe someday.
