School is almost over....

I can't believe that we have finished one year of school. I love school-it is great for all of us! heeeheehee The above picture was taken in Nina's classroom. Her class gave a special mother's day party for all the moms. I love her school and her teacher. I will be sad when she moves to another teacher. She is so loved by Mrs. Stephens. Isn't that what it is all about when you are 3?!

Books

I love books. I know that many people feel the same about books like my mom and Jenny Dey. I love to go to Borders, look at wonderful books, write down the titles and check them out at the library.

Right now I have on loan from the library:

I get cook books all the time. The pictures inspire me to try new recipes. I need inspiration for cooking. I have to make it fun for myself or I will dread it. I like to think that I am getting better by all the practice that I get. I know that it is good for my family's health and our finances.

I also check out best sellers all the time. Sometimes I read them. Sometimes, I start them and know that I will never finish them so I return them. I can do that.

If only I had another book like The Glass Castle! That book was great and I enjoyed reading it so much.

I get giddy about the library. It still amazes me that I can check the books out for FREE! I always feel like I know a secret that not everyone knows about. Why doesn't everyone go to the library?

Now I am starting to feel like a real blogger- ranting and raving. Do you want to know my opinion on politics? I don't think so and I am not going to share them. So there! heehee

Thai Chicken and Rice

Alanna shared this recipe with me. I made it last night. It is easy and yummy. It has a distinct taste which makes it especially tasty. It is from Parents magazine. Give it a try.
