Dinner Tonight!

Two things I love to do for fun.

1. Read (Kelley - The book was Murder By Family by Kent Whitaker - great story of Christ's grace/mercy)

2. Cook

I am sure that there will be many more posts about books, but tonight we'll talk food.

I am always looking for new things to cook. and I am such a planner. I shop for 2 weeks worth of food at a time and have planned out lunches, breakfast (which I hardly ever eat), and dinner. Tonight though, I wasn't too sure what I wanted to cook, so I thought BREAKFAST!

I got out the cook book and saw fried egg sandwiches. Never had one. Sounds good.

Got out the skillet, cooked the bacon, fried the eggs, toasted the bread, added some cheese and VOILA! Delicious! (if I do say so myself...) I recommend it if you haven't tried it!

RIP Dear Old Friend...

Last Thursday, we received unfortunate news that our beloved Explorer aka 'Exploder', had indeed, exploded. After years of faithful service, she finally headed to the big ol' junk yard in the sky... That is unless of course, we wanted to spend the money to replace the transmission, front wheel bearings, an front wheels. (totaling somewhere around $3000.00). Well, considering the car is maybe only worth $1000, and SUCKED to drive, we decided to place a DNR (do not resuscitate) order and let her go.

So, we had succumb to the thought of sharing a car for a while, say maybe 30 - 90 days until Ryan's commission started coming in from a deal he just aquired at work.

That lasted a day. It was awful. Apparently we are not good at sharing.

We spent all weekend looking at cars, trucks, and SUV's. It was down to the Acura TL and F-150 Lariat. We have now determined that we are not car people and tonight we purchased our new friend 'The Beast'. I hope this is the beginning of many happy journeys to come....
