Good Morning! How is everyone doing? I finally got my tree down, but I still have boxes all over the livingroom. I've got to buy a bigger box to put the lights in. I probably missed my chance to get a rubbermaid at a cheaper price.
My daughter and I are cooking some fried potatoes. Yum, I can't wait for them to get done. It's our favorite treat.
I went to sweet Daniel's funeral and it was very poignant. The service was full of soldiers from his old platoon (I'm not sure if that's the correct term). They played Taps which made my eyes water. All the soldiers stood and saluted while Taps was being played, even veterans stood and saluted. That was very moving.
I hope you're having a good week so far. Our weather people are calling for us to possibly have snow this weekend. I'm really hopeing they are correct!
Those crispy potatoes look yummy. Too bad you live so far away, lol.
ReplyDeleteNice you were able to attend the service. So sad, I am sure.
The potatoes were so good. I ate everyone on my plate, which was a lot!
DeleteThose potatoes look so good!
ReplyDeleteMilitary funerals are always so touching. Taps always makes me cry. Glad you could be there.
This was the first military funeral I have been to. It was very moving.
DeleteNow I want to know how you make the potatoes. I can never get them crispy.
ReplyDeleteWe bring the potatoes to a boil in the oil then turn the heat down to 4 for 20 minutes. Then we turn heat to high and cook the rest of the way. They are really good!
DeleteRoasted chicken and mashed potatoes on the menu for tonight. Whole chicken was on sale. It will provide a lot of different meals for us.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a "comfort" dinner! It would go over good with my family.
DeleteThe potatoes look delicious. I always cry at taps too.
ReplyDeleteThe potatoes were delicious. I could eat them every day!
DeleteYour fried potatoes look good.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
They were so good, Jan! You should make yourself some!
DeleteWhen Taps is played it always makes me teary eyed. Fried potatoes with onions always a hit in our house. Janice
