Soup and stuff

March 15th, 2007 at 07:34 pm

I just a had a bowl of left over homemade pasta fagioli soup for lunch. Ever notice how homemade soup just gets better each day?? yum! Cool thing is I can make a huge batch for just few dollars and we eat offf it for days!

I finished my parents laundry today and they are still insisting on paying me...sigh. I so dont want to take their money, but it is such a pride thing for them. So...my mom is having out-of-town company next month and is planning to host a big steak & crableg dinner. She has been buying crablegs each week to spread the expense...so I will take this laundry money and buy things she needs and 'donate' them to her dinner. A round-about way of giving them back their money.

I spoke to the girls this morning and they are still having a great time on vacation...they will be heading home tomorrow afternoon. Sounds like they all enjoyed Disneyland...and best of all, no one else has gone missing since grandsons beach ordeal! whew!

    Eh, its probably time to start a little escrow account. Your parents pay you, and you hold the money for them for when they need it or to save a little face. Keeps the cash in the family.
