On the Menu Today

Today I get to make meals for people again. I like doing this because it is a "ministry" thing I can be involved in, without leaving my children somewhere, it's something they can be present for and even sometimes help with. Today I lined up two families with one effort. We're especially excited about the meal for the family with the new baby, we sure love new babies!!

So on the menu:
Amanda's Wild Rice Soup ~ assuming the recipe wasn't eaten in the big email crash of '04
Homemade bread ~ I think I'll make kamut (I'm out of hard white wheat) with cooked oat groats. Does that sound weird? It's really good. Really.
Salad ~ nothing too exciting there, really. Requisite veggie dish. For some reason veggies IN the main dish don't seem to count. In my head.
Peanut Butter Pie ~ trying out a new recipe. Ha ha, I should say "using a new recipe for inspiration" since I have no intention of actually following the recipe. I'm not actually following Amanda's recipe, either, for that matter. It called for oodles of mushrooms. I don't do that. But I can say I've made it successfully before, without. Otherwise I wouldn't be making it. Ever again.

Now I just need to find that recipe.

And maybe take a shower, do laundry, and get working.
