Well, I'm be driving through West tomorrow. Time for blueberry and cream cheese kolaches and a nussstrudel for my cousin.

That's some pretty good chocolate.

I see where Jonah Littlesunday played a prayer song at John McCain's funeral. I can't find a decent link to share without a broadcaster voice over, but it was a beautiful song.

I hope everybody had a good holiday weekend. Ours was wet. It rained off and o most of the weekend. Currently watching the tropics to see what is coming our way from Africa. Looks like there are a couple of systems lining up. Ah, Sept., the true height of hurricane season.

I'll take some of everything above. It all looks yummy.

Labor day weekend was good. BBQ, saw my new nephew and box lax. Now just counting down the weeks until we fly out to Cali (LA) for our vacation and Morongo Powwow. It'll be my wife's first time on a plane! Only 1 minor work related meeting in Anaheim.

This week my wife and I attend the first of three classes we are required to attend to become adoptive parents. With the exception of the home study and the health statement from our doctors we have all of our other paperwork and background checks done.

My wife and I have been married almost 5 years and we think it's time to have a child. We will be adopting a ndn child, most likely from her tribe in OK.

Morongo is 2 weeks from this Friday. I don't have to wait that long to have a ndn taco since my wife was hinting that she wants them for her birthday dinner this weekend. I reached out to Gilisi to see if that foo was going to try to swing by for a day, but he wasn't sure. I usually run into AmigoK as well.

Hey, that's cool, Toolbox. Why don't you adopt 11 kids, then you have a soccerteam.

Thanks, but I'd need a much bigger house and also soccer is lame

Thanks! We have to take the classes starting this Thursday and do some online training modules throughout the rest of the month. If all goes well we will be licensed by October. I believe we can start looking and inquiring about specific children once we are in the homestudy phase, which also starts this month. We have seen one child in particular that caught our attention.

Also, shrimp and grits just doesn't sound right mixed together, maybe separate.

You need some Southern in your blood to truly appreciate shrimp and grits.

[OLChemist]

Warm, earthy stone-ground grits with a touch of fresh ground black pepper and melted sharp cheddar. Topped with shrimp, shallots, bell pepper and tasso ham in a white wine and cream sauce. There is little better.

I don't have a drop of Southern in me, unless the southern half of the Dakotas counts. Hot water cornbread, blackeyed peas with ham hock, hominy, biscuits and molasses, country ham, ramps and eggs, pan fried catfish, turnip greens, rabbit stew... Even a Yankee can appreciate good food :)

That sounds a lot better when you combine all of those ingredients.

Bagel and iced coffee for breakfast this morning.

The funny thing is that my mom's side of the family is from the south but we didn't grow up eating like southerners unless we went to visit family.
