MEETINGS AND MORE

This morning I attended a meeting from the art club of CVE( Century Village East). I am going to be working with the trip committee. So far we have one trip planned and are expected to plan another. Actually so far I have done nothing but I will get in touch with the other woman and work with her. The meeting was LONG!!!!!! There will be two art exhibitions. I am not sure if I’ll enter them. I don’t think our art work should be judged no matter who the judges are. It is so very SUBJECTIVE!!!!! I’m sure if judges were brought in at different times different paintings would be selected for first place etc. Anyhow I’ll decide soon as we have to hand in our applications.
Then I went swimming. I swam for half hour. Then I froze while I changed in the washroom and walked home. It’s cold for Florida!!!!!!! Our lockers are being renovated and are still not ready! When it’s hot out I don’t care as I just walk home in my bathing suit but the last few days have been COLD!
This afternoon I did some cooking. I made some pinwheels which I don’t think will be any good. My filling was too loose…………….I didn’t follow the recipe exactly. I put in some lox. Tomorrow I’ll cut them into pieces and see if they are edible. I don’t know why I tried a new recipe. I made a pasta dish using coleslaw. Again I think it will be a failure as I didn’t realize the coleslaw is very thick pieces. I added some dressing. I’ll let hubby taste it tomorrow and decide if we can save it. Last but not least I baked a tofu cheesecake. It looks right. I will make a lemon glaze when I get home tonight.
We are going out for supper – not sure where. Hubby wants to go to Olive Garden. I would like to go somewhere different. We’ll see what the other couple wants to do.
I had different things I wanted to prepare for tomorrow night but don’t think I will. I will make some potato and sweet potato latkes and that’s it. I have plenty to serve – just how to figure how to warm everything up.
1. latkes: potato, sweet potato, salmon, mashed potato, and eggplant
2. lasagna
3. bagels, cream cheese and lox
4. miniature quiche
5. salmon dish
6. vegetable/fruit salad
7. vegie salad
8. chocolate fondue with fruit
Not sure what else is being brought. I am sure no one will go away hungry.
Right now I am lonesome for my kids. I guess cause it’s Hanukah. We’re alone and not even lighting the candles. I’m plugged in the electric menorah in but it isn’t the same. It’s a good thing we’re going out.
I had a short nap. Maybe it’s a good thing. I’ll sleep better tonight. So maybe I’ll read a few of your entries and get ready.
