Thank you for your kind Oprah show support from yesterday. I think I got to most of the questions by leaving tidbits woven throughout the comments. I dreamed Beth Moore left me a comment last night and almost peed in my sleep. Not sure why I felt the need to over-share there but it is what it is.
On to other fascinating conversation.
Yesterday, after watching Oprah, I decided to scan the tube to see what other things come on in the late afternoon hours of TV land. This is a rare treat for me. These hours are usually reserved for running kids here and there and stressing over what in the world I will feed all these people.
But thanks to the goodness called leftovers, I had some time.
After a brief stop over to visit Jon and Kate plus 8 where they were having a clothes shopping date... (where can I get one of those?)... I finally landed on the curiosity called 30 Minute Meals with Rachel Ray.
Rachel, I'm sure you are all into my blog, so please don't take offense. I think you are cute as a bug and smart as a whip. But you lost me honey, somewhere between the fresh cut herbs and code language of calling Olive Oil "the E.V.O.O."--- have mercy it took all the brain cells I had left for the day to figure out what that was!
And then after the show was over, I was famished. But not famished for my crusty looking leftovers. No, I wanted some of her fresh herb encrusted chicken with the sides of perschutto wrapped asparagus and fresh from the garden 3 bean pesto salad.
If any of you are whipping together that little treasure of a meal today, will you share the love please?
Anyhow, all that to say I am no whiz in the kitchen. What takes Rachel 30 minutes would take me 3 days. By then all the food would have spoiled and I would still be found peering over the recipe cards in great fits of confusion and frustration.
So, Proverbs 31:14 says, "She is like the merchant ships bringing her food from afar."
Y'ALL... I have finally found AFAR!!!
I have found the very source from which I am convinced the P31 woman purchased her food!!!
Hello COSTCO, where have you been all my life. You are my new official "AFAR."
Seriously, they have a little section of very reasonably priced almost prepared foods that make my heart sing.
Here is a sampling of my some of my newly dsicovered meals which honestly take less than 30 and require no food processing or drizzling of freshly chopped herbs and "the E.V.O.O."
Fresh bread crumb encrusted Tilapia.
Fettuccine Alfredo with Grilled chicken and fresh Parmesan.
BBQ wings.
Steaks wrapped in Smoked Apple Bacon.
And this Costco AFAR is SOOOOOO much cheaper than my local grocery store.
I am happy y'all.
Now, I need to tune in one of those exercise shows.
