Easter Weekend Happenings

Yesterday we helped the Childers move into their new house in South Lebanon. They have one of the largest basements we’ve ever seen – very clearly the best attribute of the house. Makes us think about our wish list for our next house… probably dangerous…

Jim’s parents came over around 8:00 last night. HUGE surprise that they were coming in for Easter at all. Decided we’d go get some Skyline for dinner and the car that they drove (Jim’s old Grand Prix) breaks down on the way! It was crazy because Doug was all boastful about the performance since it got 29MPG on the way down and handled so well on the way to Cincy. Calm before the storm apparently. Anyway, being Easter no place is open to fix it so we need to do some creative engineering with the car distribution. Thankfully Grandpa has always been willing to lend us one of theirs in such emergencies.

I’m making breakfast now – bacon, omelets, cinnamon rolls, French toast, eggs. This afternoon I’ll spend some time making my potato dish for the dinner. I got an amazing, though confusing, bargain at Meijer. Went to but 5lbs of potatos at 2/$4. I turn around to walk away and see 10lb. bags on sale for $1.88. Go figure…
