"Letting Go"

Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

Happy 150th Birthday Klimt

Birthday Bash BBQ Weekend!

My birthday weekend was so much fun! The kids came over on Saturday. We had a big bbq dinner, hung out on the patio listening to music & laughed all day. Then Sunday I tried something new for my birthday dinner/Father's Day dinner, which always makes an occasion memorable."Bulgogi", a Korean beef dish. I used an apple (you can use a kiwi instead) in the marinade & I cooked it in a wok on the bbq instead of grilling it because it was so thinly sliced. The meat was so juicy from the marinade that when I started to fry it the pan started filling up with juice, so I added in the marinade too after the meat was cooked. If you are Korean, I know you are probably thinking that doesn't look right, I made it all wrong, but we loved it! We ate it with rice & lettuce. I would definitely make it again. I had bought the thinly sliced rib eye steaks from the Asian Market that I frequent & on the package it said it was sliced for "Bulgogi", so I looked it up & tried it. You know me & peppers...well I would have liked the Bulgogi better had it been spicy. haha It was fun trying something different & new.

I didn't get socks...hahaha. This week I will be working on a Patriotic Angel if I start to feel better. I have an awfully bad sore throat today & don't have much energy at all.

What Do I Want?....

My family & friends always ask me what I want for my birthday or Christmas and inevitably I have socks in the list. They usually groan when I say that. I rarely get socks but I still put it on my list. For some reason I can't keep a "pair". One sock always disappears shortly after one or two wearings. I think there is a black hole on this planet just to suck in one sock at a time. My birthday is this weekend, so if I don't get socks, maybe I'll get paper........
