First Soccer game of the season at my daughter's high school

2012-03-27T22:15:00.000-07:00

Went to daughter's soccer game last night. She is on the JV team. I helped out at the snack bar (by being the one who takes all the snack donations and bring it to both the JV and Varsity games. Well JV won 8-0 and my daughter scored one of the goals. I was so proud. Just a bit mad that I didn't bring my camera to snap a pic. Varsity also won. So proud of my daughter and the team. Go Riders!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone

2012-03-15T16:55:00.000-07:00

Went to a parent meeting, so they can give us all kinds of info about what is going on. yes I volunteered to take all the donated drinks, snack stuff (which will be used to sell at the snack stand during games) and bring them home with me and then take them to both the JV and Varsity games. Thankfully it is only 8 times (home games only). But it looks like a candy and drink store in my garage. Now the real test is to make sure my son stays out of it.

Articles like this is a good reason to not text and drive. According to the Canadian Press Emy Brochu died January 18, 2012 after her car slammed into a tractor-Trailer truck that was merging into traffic. Before the accident, Brochu had sent Fortin a series of loving messages. Afterwards, Fortin sent several messages back to her but did not hear a reply. Click here to read the full article.

As the popularity of mobile phones grown, it is still kinda unclear how greatly texting and talking on phones while driving has contributed to car crashes. But it is very clear that talking and texting behind the wheel both contribute to being distractions, which in turn can and will lead to car accidents.

No Dogs Allowed...JOKE

2012-03-07T12:47:00.000-08:00

A man goes into a bar with his dog. He goes up to the bar and asks for a drink.

The bartender says "You can't bring that dog in here!" The guy, without missing a beat, says "This is my seeing-eye dog."

"Oh man,” the bartender says, "I'm sorry, here, the first one's on me." The man takes his drink and goes to a table near the door.

Another guy walks into the bar with a Chihuahua. The first guys sees him, stops him and says "You can't bring that dog in here unless you tell him it's a seeing-eye dog."

The second man graciously thanks the first man and continues to the bar. He asks for a drink. The bartender says "Hey, you can't bring that dog in here!"

The second man replies "This is my seeing-eye dog." The bartender says, "No, I don't think so. They do not have Chihuahuas as seeing-eye dogs."

The man pauses for a half-second and replies "What??! They gave me a Chihuahua??!"

Police Emergency....JOKE

2012-03-06T12:45:00.001-08:00

This is the true story of George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi, who was going to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the shed. George opened the door to go turn off the light but saw there were people in the shed in the process of stealing things.

He immediately phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and George said no and explained the situation. Then they explained that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be there when available.

George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.

"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I've just shot them all."

Then he hung up. Within five minutes three squad cars, an Armed Response unit, and an ambulance showed up. Of course, the police caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"

George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

Ham Puffs ------

2012-02-19T13:27:00.003-08:00

2 rolls of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
Pack of Sandwich ham - cut into bit size pieces
3 tsp. Dijon Mustard
1/4 cup Chopped frozen Spinach (squeezed dry)
small diced onion
small can of cooked Mushrooms - finely diced
2 cup Shredded Cheese
2 tbl. Sour Cream
Crushed garlic clove - finely chopped

Mix all ingredients together, except for cresent rolls, let sit about 1/2 hour.
Roll out your cresent rolls, one pack at a time, and close back perforations already made. So you will just have a long rectangular cresent. Take a pizza cutter and cut them into 24 squares. Place one cresent square in each tin. Take spoon full of filling and fill each cup even with top. Place uncovered in oven, bake on 425 for 15-20 min.

This recipe can be modified anyway you like... You can make Peperonni and cheese, cheeseburgers, turkey .... whatever you like. Same concept....
