I forgot to tell you we went to Pella last Sunday to celebrate Brett’s mom’s birthday.
Krista served surf ‘n’ turf: steaks and shrimp off the grill, and broiled salmon, along with a Caesar salad and corn on the cob. Yum!
Then, oh man. Then: the pièce de résistance – she served an ice cream cake from hell. The woman smashed up a whole package of Oreos and lined an 8×12″ Pyrex dish with it, then smeared a half gallon of vanilla chocolate chip ice cream over it, and then added crushed Butterfinger candybars, more Oreos, and chocolate syrup.
She’s totally insane.
Naturally, I had two pieces. I have to check my insulin three times a day now.
We gave mom a group gift – a digital camera and a picture printer. I think she liked it. Kris did all the shopping because she’s superior. And now Parker will have even more pictures taken of her!
Brett’s truck got a flat while parked in front of Krista & Andy’s, so we had to leave early to get to the Walmart in Osky to get the tire fixed before five. I checked out the yarn in the crafts section, but didn’t buy anything.
It was hot as hell outside on Sunday.
