Well, Sunday is a day of cooking or eating.  Today we decided that we weren't going to his cousin's baby blessing.  Just too much driving, we had church obligations and we were just exhausted.  So I finished cleaning the kitchen up, cut up the last cantaloupe and looked through our fridge.  For lunch we finished all the leftovers in the fridge which is super nice.  Russ had a great lunch.

I have been wanting to still try some grilling things, sooooooooo I tried yet again.  It was another horrible dinner.  I am going to stick with cooking in the kitchen tomorrow.  I tried potato Parmesan slices- totally burnt.  I tired small chuck roast steaks- too chewy, but they were medium rare like we like.  I may not be doing well with too much on the grill but at least I CAN get a steak medium-rare.  I have finally learned the hot spots and cool spots on the grill.  It is not even.  I also tried corn on the cob.  It was uncooked.  I can't get the temperature to stay right in the grill and right now I don't know how to get it to stay even.

I am going to go and feed Remington come cantaloupe with oatmeal.  We will see how it goes.  I picked a ton of Zucchini in the garden and I am going to shred it tonight.  I don't think that I will have the energy or time to cook the bread tonight, but at least it will help me make the mess tonight for making it between my jobs tomorrow.

Madalynn hated dinner.  That is a good indication about how it went.

I have found a few new crock pot recipes that I will have to try this week.  That will be nice.  The crock pot tends to be safer for me..but i have had a lot of practice with it over the past two years so things work out a lot better.

So that is that for now
