the great chefs at work






Kelli, Kurt and Mom cooked up a fabulous Sunday dinner today. Mom was the head chef, Kelli was the "sue" chef and Kurt was the monitor in charge of drinks and salads. (Danny was collecting fast offerings and Dad was helping out in the bedroom, on the bed, asleep). Dad and Danny joined us at the end for the final touches. Kelli made up a version of orange jello salad (with the cool whip and cottage cheese). She used strawberry jello instead of orange jellos, thawed some frozen mixed berries (instead of the mandarin oranges) and, voila! a pink jello salad fit for royalty!




We are very lonely after the fun-filled Christmas holidays we had with all the family around. Mark and Ashley, it looks like the baby is coming along nicely!




The Olsen Chili cook-off is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, February 2, in conjunction with our Groundhog day festivities. Please let me know if there are any conflicts.




Love to all,




Mom
