Valentine's Day

Well......those peanut butter oatmeal cookies I talked about in my last post turned out to resemble rocks. I think I am in need of lessons on how to use the timer properly while baking. I don't know what happened.....one day, I knew how to cook and bake, the next I get married, have kids, and my cooking skills end up in the crapper. Oh well....at least they stuck around long enough for me to teach my husband what he needed to know about cooking before I lost all my skills. Now at least one of us can cook so we all won't starve. That is a plus. :-)

Well, it's Valentine's Day today. There is nothing like taking boxes of goodies from family members that sent things, passing them out to the kids and my husband in hopes of them not realizing I didn't get them anything more than just a card for Valentine's Day. With this economy how can anyone afford to spend all that money anyway? On the plus side....it makes me feel better when I know my gift from my husband was the fact that the white chicken chili he made for a chili cook off at work did not get totally eaten and he brought some home for me! Who needs to spend money when you can win my love with soup? My husband told me today on Facebook when I told him Happy Valentines Day on a post about soup that we had gotten a little too comfortable with our marriage.....I say.....I think not! I LOVE soup and my husband. I'm looking forward to many more years of soup and my husband. I hope he is too. Speaking of........it's supper soup time right now! Off I go! HAPPY VALENTINE' DAY everyone!
