Yesterday I made two recipes that were possibilities for Tay's wedding luncheon. One was the cheesecake-in-a-jar recipe that I found on Pinterest (a plethora of ideas at your fingertips), and one was a saucy chicken recipe served with boiled red potatoes.
For Sunday dinner, we had a family tasting.
The consensus:
thumbs up for the cheesecake
thumbs up for the potatoes
thumbs down for the chicken, not because it wasn't delicious (it was!), but because it was {saucy} and {messy} and looked a little like slop on the plate.
After dinner we attended Young Women in Excellence with Shi. Lex was unable to make it due to a "mandatory" work meeting at B&BW, which she most likely didn't mind, since she would have had to conduct YWIE had she been there. I think she would rather have teeth pulled. We were sad that she wasn't able to attend her VERY LAST YWIE, though.
The YW leaders had put together a video of each of the girls doing an "I'm a Mormon" spot, which they shared with the parents. Such a cute idea.
The girls brought a display of one of their value projects for the year... here was Shi's:

She had actually taken MORE for the display, but edited it down to these two simple things.
I'm good with simple these days.
Afterwards I snapped a few pics, just to remember the evening.
My goals today are:
get the fabric ironed and cut for both Tay and Britt's quilts
make a run to the bank
make a flip chart for a Christmas song for Primary (so much to sing, so little time)
possibly make a few returns to various stores, if time allows.
Once kids are home from school, goal time is O-V-E-R, since by then I am either in high demand, or ready for a nap.
Gotta run.
