Entirely Way Too Long

It has been a long time since the last time I blogged, especially since I said I was going to blog the day after my previous post.  I guess I should make promises I cannot keep.  I will admit I have been working on redoing Bethel’s website. Although the final version still maybe upwards of a month away.

Iron Chef was fun.  The secret ingredient was cocoa powder.  The game plan ended up to make stuff shell noodles with a spinach, cream cheese, ricotta cheese, and cocoa powder for the main dish.  It turn out pretty descent. Our appetizer was cocoa biscuits, nasty things…  we didn’t have baking powder and the girl helping out substituted it with baking soda nasty nasty nasty.  For dessert we picked a winner going with a chocolate pizza…  Topped with chocolate cream cheese, and chocolate chips and peanut butter chips, drizzled with chocolate.  My group got second place…. oh well.  if it weren’t for the nastybiscuits…

Everything else is going well.  I’ve been able to keep up with the giants more this year than previous years, I have been listening to games on the radio which in great.  they are doingok, 14-13 today.  Second place in their division….  That means everyone else in the division with the exception of the blue team is doing horrible.  The giants are 6.0 games back and have a 3 games series in LA this weekend…   BEAT LA!!! BEAT LA!!!!  Sweep the series and we’ll be only 3 games back.  Which brings up an interesting topic.  Manny…  that’s rightManny Ramirez suspended for 50 games for taking a banded substance.  Now is the time for any team in the NL West to capitalize on the blue team losing their star player.   LET’S GO GIANTS!!!!! LET’S GO GIANTS!!!!!

To Jay, This next Tuesday afternoon I’m heading with my yearbook class to Famous Dave’s Restaurant in Long Beach.  Totally looking forward to it.

To Everyone: Don’t forget to wish your mom a “Happy Mother’s Day” this Sunday!

Valentine’s Day

So today, was Valentine’s Day… Renae and I have now been married 8 months.  We slept in this morning, and then did our normal routine of taking Renae up to get her allergy shots.  After that we drove down to San Juan Capistrano to visit the Mission.  It is one of the oldest buildings still standing in California.  It was a nice trip, the days was sunny but not too hot. The mission was enjoyable, and there were lots of interesting things that happen there.  We then went to go eat lunch at BJ’s  I had the BJ’s favorite and Renae had the Sweet Pig pizzas.  My pizza was delicious, but Renae’s was amazing I had one bite of hers and thought that it was a million times better than the one I ordered, but like I said my pizza was good.  After lunch, we drove to Downtown Disney and picked up a few things for Renae, before heading home.  Tonight I am going to barbque some chicken and spend the evening with my beautiful wife.  Enjoy the pictures.
