The end of the day

It was a beautiful day and Kate went to the grocery and made a Southwestern style salad with black beans and avacados for a congregational supper at church. We went to church and ate with a lot of folks and a few new people were there and no one seemed to be cleaning the kitchen afterward so Cindy and Kate and I pitched in and used the kitchen hardware to clean the dishes and silverware after the meal. That kitchen is amazing. I wish I had a kitchen like that. Man. It's not pretty but it has all the bells and whistles.

Afterward, Cindy and Kate decided to join me for choir practice and it was fun to have the girls with me in the choir room. We are all singing on Maundy Thursday and Easter. That was fun.

Tomorrow we will have community group and I am making shrimp and grits for the group. I am using Paula Dean's recipe which has two main things going for it: it is very simple and the combination is really excellent. I have had so many versions of shrimp and grits over the years and the best are so simple. Seafood needs to be simple. What is better than raw oysters? You just need a little hot sauce and a garbage can for the discarded shells. And a cold beer.

I think I am going to drive myself crazy here if I go on any further with this line of blogging. I think it is time to turn it off and finish for the evening.
