September 27th, 2007 With our Oktoberfest just a couple of days away, this morning found me mixing up a triple batch of beer rolls. I needed an extra large bowl for the dough’s first rise, so I went looking for my large pasta pot. And looking. And looking. How could I lose a giant pasta pot? In desperation, I finally called out, “Does anyone know where my pasta pot is?” “Um, it’s up July 20th, 2007 Thank you God for Eamon. 11 years of his helpful big-brotherly-ness. 11 years of his easy, charming smile. 11 years of his gentle, generous spirit. 11 years of LOVE. God bless you, Eamon! We love you! May 17th, 2007 Yesterday, I was happy to learn that Eamon had taken some pictures of his own during the boys’ recent fishing trip. I hurried to get them onto the computer as I thought his photos might give me a little different perspective on the whole trip. They did do that, but it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for.

And he will bring some to you, wrapped in a napkin, still warm from the oven. Free of charge. (recipe here) April 11th, 2007 I knew I shouldn’t do it, but yesterday I just couldn’t help myself. Maybe I was thinking that my kids should be exposed to more of the great American classics. Maybe I was just desperate to get an hour’s worth of work done. Either way, I made an irreversible decision: I let my children watch an episode of Walker, Texas Ranger. “Hey cool!” Eamon shouted. “This is that show you October 18th, 2006 has begun. Two more weeks… one more week… five more days, I’ve beenhearing. And then this morning: Three more days till Oktoberfest! Thekids can barely contain their excitement. I, however, have a slightly different perspective. Three more days? Three more days?? I’ve simply got to get something done around here. This morning I decided to get a start on some baking. The beer rolls seemed a good place to start. |
