fried chicken

My mom found several different packages
of pillow cases that she thought would
be fun to make something
out of.

I decided to make more crop pants out
of the slate blue cases.

I think they turned out cute!

And thankfully Lucy wasn't copping
a model attitude but smiled
readily!

Oops, I think they are on backwards...
oh well, 3 year olds can get away
with that. 40 year olds, however, cannot.
Not that I've tried.

I was just tickled beyond words yesterday when
I got to go run some errands all.by.my.self.

Woo! What a rush.

When I got home it was approaching dinner time
and of course one of the first
questions I was asked (nicely of course) as I walked in the
door was the ever popular,

"What's for dinner?"

Which was asked by my sweet husband in a tone
that had a hint of fear that I would say,

soup and salad.

But much to his delight,
I announced that I was making my semi-annual
fried chicken!

To which he responded with bright eyes
and a giddy grin,

"Oooooh, somebody's trying to get lucky tonight!"

Right.

Yes, spending an hour over a big pan of
hot grease, leaving me smelling
like a KFC employee for the rest of the evening,
always puts me in an *amorous* mood.

And yes, I took a picture....knowing I could
make a post out of this kept me going
through the greasy process.
