Sorry Timmy, Sally Struthers ate your food so you go hungry today. May 5, 2008

Had to send this email out today, and wanted to let anyone that may have considered going know:

“Sorry to report, but the charity bake sale portion of the garage sale
is cancelled. I apologize if you had planned to bring baked items for
donation as we will not be able to sell any food whatsoever.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

(me)
Heritage Glen Homeowners Association
Social Committee”

Why? Because someone complained to the city that we didn’t have a permit to sell food. TECHNICALLY, we’re giving food for donations but whatever. So sorry, 1. The baking that I have done thusfar was for naught, and 2. I’m really really trying hard to edit myself because of how upset I am. I really thought we were going to be able to do some good this time around.

Mimi has some explaining to do. February 4, 2008

Mimi’s Spaghetti Casserole

-Thin spaghetti (ring measure one inch), cooked until almost done
-1/3 Sun-Dried Tomatoes (this is a recipe from a package of GREAT LAKES, so it specifies their brand), chopped
-2 eggs
-1/4 c. chopped green pepper
-1/4 c. chopped onion
-1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
-2.5 c. milk
-2 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
-Paprika

 Preparation: In a 2-quart greased casserole, break the eggs and beat with a fork. Add all ingredients except milk and paprika. Mix together gently and stir in milk. Sprinkle paprika on top. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour or until set in the middle.

Notes (from the original recipe): Serve this casserole as an entree, or as a side instead of potatoes. Leftovers reheat quickly and easily in microwave ovens, but they are also excellent served cold on hot summer days.

I made this the other night after our Homeowners Association Meeting. Blech! I expected so much better out of something with that much cheddar in it! This was bland and blah. J said it tasted like breakfast food (even with the spaghetti?).
