Fish...

As you know from reading Curt's Facebook status, I made fish! Yes, you read that right, I, Me Mandy, made FISH!!!!!!!!!!!! I do NOT like fish! I can't even eat fish sticks, yuck! Makes my stomach churn just thinking about it! lol
Anyways... I am seeing TONS of fish (more like hole in the wall) restaurants (But I am sure those hole in the wall ones are the BEST)! And signs for FRESH FISH HERE, and lots of fresh fish at the store! Every week the grocery ad has about 6 different types of fresh fish on sale. So I figured I better bite the bullet and grow up and try it! My mom says she makes it by getting a big pot of boiling water, then throws the fish in the pot and when it comes to the top, it's done. I guess it is called poor man's lobster (just without the lobster. hee hee hee. Sorry, I am tired!) She told me that Tilapia (did I spell it right? lol) is not fishy. So I go to the store and see it and think, oh, what a good wife I'll be, cooking fish for Curt. (This is the last nite that he will be here since he was leaving for Mexico) I was also hoping and praying I didn't kill him or give him stomach cramps from making it! I was going to do it my parents way, but saw a recipe on the back of the package to bread it in flour and garlic salt. I was like, oh, that's sounds good. So I battered it up, put it in my cast iron skillet and prayed that it would turn out alright! (and that Curt would like it! :oP) The girls GOBBLED it all up and Curt thought he was in heaven! He wasn't sure if I was really Mandy who he married! ;o) I SWORE I would NEVER fix fish, other than tuna sandwiches or fish sticks. ;o) So... here's my prob now. I need to know what kind of fish you recommend and why? I don't want anything that tastes too fishy, yuck... Also any idea for recipes for fish? I do need to go through my cook books and look for some, but I like to see what you all like!
I DID TRY a little bit of fish! I ate it all, but didn't get anymore! lol ;o) I don't think I like the texture maybe? I dunno...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Judah's Wife Book Review

I received this book from Bethany House for free if I agreed to read and then blog about it. Judah's Wife is by Angela Hunt. I've read a few of her books and absolutely enjoyed and loved them!  I was very excited to be picked to read this book! I've honestly not read anything from the books of Maccabees.  This story is the "silent years' between Malachi and Matthew. I really would like find Maccabees now to read it since I've read this book. This book was amazing! Love being able to read stories that really capture what it was like.  Angela Hunt has done this in this book. I really enjoyed how she told it from Judah's side and Leahs side.  It would go back and forth, but it wasn't confusing at all. Talks about Leahs up-bringing and how she struggled. Her father wasn't a real father figure and in time she realizes how much her mother protected her from her father and his blows. She struggles to truly love Judah at first who was somewhat fo...

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...
