Words of Encouragement

January 23rd, 2008 · 4 Comments

Mom:  “You’re doing what?  Really?  Oh, I’ll have to tell your father what you’re up to.  He’ll want to hear this.”

Matt:  “And after it’s over, you won’t want to cook at all.  It’ll be like Mickey D’s for a week, solid.  Hot wings and beer.”  (Now, I did point out that I’d probably add pizza to that order and watch some sports on ESPN, but that’s just me.  Doesn’t sound like a half-bad Easter day, does it?  Hot wings, beer, pizza, and having people over to watch the game….  :) I’m not really a beer-drinker, though, so I’d have to have an alternative beverage….)

Kasia:  “Be honest with me: how much do you know about cooking?”

Many, many people:  “Seriously?!?”

    Now, in my defense, that question had a PURPOSE! It was designed to enable me to more accurately gauge what your Lenten gift should be, NOT to make you feel like an incompetent cook!

    No, no, no – I just decided to give you a gift for Lent to facilitate your penance. RELAX! :-)

    Oh, that *is* relaxed…. :)

    Besides, I *didn’t* give up “terror and anxiety” for Lent…. :)
