MJ's Week

Gosh.....again. Almost a month since my last post.

And I haven't even been reading my fave blogs. In fact I do believe I have 900-something posts to read.

I hate that.

So much has been going on......yet nothing is happening. You know what I mean? Sure you do.

Well, last week I spent some time with my buddy MJ. 'Memba her?

Man, that girl has been busy.

Last week, she put together a menu for a fundraising event at the Governor's residence and I helped her cook it. It was really really fun. And a screaming success.

Then she was on TV

And I was there with her......riding on her coattails.

And now I'm very very tired.

Here's the menu.

Oh Martha--you always make me look good. Your squash blossoms were the hit of the party. Your not afraid to break the rules. She washed and ran them all through the salad spinner contrary to what every cookbook says. We had just had a rain, so they were dirty and had quite a few hitchhikers. We couldn't use those gorgeous blossoms dirty, so, what the heck, let's wash them. They were perfect!

Sounds fun and very yummy. Sometimes I wish I had a job cooking, it is such a passion of mine. Then again, where but in Real Estate could I work this hard and not get paid??

Michelle said...

Oh, man. That menu is unbelievable. Did you take any pictures?

Wow, what a menu! Thanks for posting it MJ. Geez, I think I gained ten pounds just reading it...especially all those cupcakes! I would love to try that signature drink!

House tour? School supplies check list for the noodle? Wondering what these kids need these days, other than the H1N1 shot.
