Who’s Your Daddy?

I had the privilege of subbing at my granddaughter’s preschool this week in the pre-K class. What a lot of energy! I had some adorable four and a half year olds! Being a sub, I got to the class after a lot of the kids had been dropped off and didn’t meet their parents. As the day went on and I got to see some of the personalities, it made me curious to meet their parents. I was looking forward at the end of the day to see who parented these secure, confident, bright-eyed little people.

It made me wonder if as children of the Most High God, we would make people want to meet our Daddy? I hope so!

I try to watch how many carbs I consume and whenever I have overindulged and fell “puffy” I pull back and reassess what I am eating. I have some good ole standbys that get me back on track. This is one of them! We order it at one of our favorite places to eat and I have recreated it and I have to admit, it is yummy! They serve it with pita triangles but we eat it just like it is. I have no idea why they call it Naked Avocado Salad because it obviously is avocado with stuff added to it. Maybe because it sounds fancy.

Naked Avocado Salad

4 ripe avocados
1/2 cup chopped red onion
3 roma tomatoes, chopped
juice of 1 lemon, or less depending on how much you like lemon
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 half pound bacon, fried and crumbled
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Lightly mash avocados. Fold in tomatoes and red onion. Sprinkle on lemon juice, salt and pepper, and mix lightly.   Sprinkle crumbled bacon and feta on top.

Aging Parents, Humorous, Internet, Senior Citizens

I just got back from a visit with my recently widowed Daddy.  I was there to do all of the awful things you have to do after losing someone you love, clean out closets, go through their belongings deciding who gets what, all that yucky stuff.  But while I was there I got my Daddy hooked up to “them internets”.  We will see how this goes!  This video came across my Facebook today and I thought it was pretty funny considering what I had been up to lately!  Hope you enjoy it!

Bacon, Cooking, Simple

Baking Bacon

I often think of things people ought to know!

Things that will make life easier.

Things that make it work.

But there is a part of me that wants

to

impart life-changing truths.

So if you bake your bacon,you have 20 minutes to

 spend searching after life-changing truths!

How’s that?

Here’s how to do it!

Put single strips of bacon on foil on cookie sheet.
Put in cold oven on 400.
Bake 20 minutes. (Longer if bacon is thick)
Remove from oven.
Drain on paper towels.
Now wasn’t that simple?
