Happy Valentines Day






My pint-size model was more interested in climbing off of and throwing the props than in posing. But I somehow managed to get a few cute pictures.
Gavin is my grandson and he turned one this month.

Winner of VIP pack for Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls is.....

Susan!
She will get a gift pack for Pillsbury that will include coupons for Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls and a photo album especially for keeping pictures of meal time memories.

I've been thinking about this idea and I think Pillsbury is so right. We cook lots of meals and take lots of pictures, but I have very few family pictures of special meals.
I did find a couple and want to share them with you. I hope it will inspire you to take photos of your ordinary meals as well as your big occasion family meals.


this one is a family dinner at my dad's parents home. My mom and dad are the good-looking ones on the front end of the table. Beside my mom, is Aunt Delores, then my grandparents, MiMi and Victor, then Uncle Jesse - I'm not sure who the next 2 men are.

This is my dad standing at the end of the buffet at a big family meal at my Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Jarvis's home. I think the occasion may of been my
grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary. I do know for certain that all the food was delicious because everyone on my moms side cooked like a pro.
I think there are 8 Jello salads at the end of this table - that family all loves Jello salads. Uncle Bill especially loved every Jello salad - it was a family joke that no matter what flavor, every Jello salad was Uncle Bill's favorite.

Today's Chinese Proverb:

Talk doesn't cook rice.

just another way of saying, if you do stuff, stuff gets done.


this guy in the middle of the first photo, stirring the huge pot of rice, reminds me of when I cooked for a fraternity - I seemed to always be cooking huge amounts of stuff surrounded by lots of boys eating like locusts.
