Thursday night was a very fun evening. The morning wasn't so much... Jamey and I had to call all the church members to let them know that the funeral was on Friday. I also had to call to get people to make food for the dinner. The day was hectic and a little stressful, but the play at the end of the day let us escape for about an hour and a half. It started with a guy that wanted to share this vinyl record experience with us. When he started the record all the characters came to life... It was set in the twenties and was just a little on the corny side, but it was fun. The theater was so big! It even had the boxes up near the top, with thick burgundy curtains! :~)
I'm going to be like my sister in her blog... Give a recipe! ;~) Friday was the funeral so I had to make some of the food. I had the ham from Easter (which I got at Aldis) in my freezer that had yet to be eaten. So I got the brilliant idea that I would take ham. But not just the ham... I looked for a glaze online and found this one:
BROWN SUGAR GLAZE
1 Cup Brown Sugar
2 Tbsp. Flour
1/2 Tsp. Mustard
1/8 Tsp. Cinnamon
3 Tbsp. Water
Mix well. Spread on ham. :~p
I had the ham sliced already, so I laid the pieces on a cookie sheet and slathered each piece with the glaze and baked it for about 10 minutes or until the ham was hot and the glaze was starting to bubble. When the dinner started everyone couldn't get enough of the ham! They thought it was a Honey Baked ham! :~) That was the most compliments I've gotten on any food that I've brought for church gatherings. I also made a cake and used my Mommy's frosting recipe and that got rave reviews too.
Jamey did the funeral service. It was his first time doing anything like that so he was a little nervous! However, quite a few people came up and said it was the best funeral service they had been to. That made him feel better! :~) Hopefully he won't have a lot of practice with that particular service.
This week we've been keeping busy going to gospel meetings. This Saturday is the marriage seminar... I'm really looking forward to that! :~) I've been trying to keep busy cleaning this house! :~) I'm going to be sewing a little too... I got some fabric from Walmart that I'm looking forward to making into a shirt and a dress. :~)
