But occasionally, I have these random thoughts, which don't always have a place in my scrapbook - so I thought a blog would be the perfect place for the stuff rambling around in my head on any given day... plus now you can join me in this new season of my life - remarried and a stepmom to three teens! ...

Comfort Food...
Last night we had pork chops for dinner - one of the guys' favorite comfort foods. While I was frying the pork chops in a cast iron skillet, a 'gang' of au gratin potatoes were baking in the oven, and green beans were simmering on the stove top. Aaron came home about that time. When he walked in, he said "It smells awesome in here! What's for dinner, Deiga?" "Pork Chops," I said. "With a 'gang' of those great potatoes like last time." "Yep," I answered. "Awesome," was the reply. A few minutes later, Ron walked in the door..."Chicken or pork chops?" "Pork Chops." "Smells good!" But the highest compliment came while we were eating when Aaron said, "These pork chops are as good as grandma's!" Oh, my that's quite a compliment...and I knew, at least for today, I was queen of the kitchen! Pretty good for someone who still doesn't really like to cook, but is learning what pleases these guys. Plus, my hubby thinks I look sexy in my apron! You gotta love that one...
