IIRC, the catering for Jenny's wedding was like 8.50 a person. That was for food like cold cuts, taboli salad, fruit and vegtables, quesadillas, barbeque ribs, varitity of dips and chips. It was the best deal, with the best food we could find. It's from a local steak house we go to alot because the food is so good and the price is great.

Mack and I went there just recently. The have like courses. You start out with a relish tray with houmas dip, then a dish of taboli salad, then ribs and bologna, then a cabbage roll, then your salad, THEN, you steak and potatoe and bread. All that for like $15.00. And the steak is melt in your mouth tender.

We had Charlies rehersal dinner there. It's our favorite place. Which, BTW, brings me too ask, I thought the grooms family only had to pay for the rehersal dinner and the brides flowers???? Why are you footing the bill for the cake?? I mean that's OK, IMO, if you do pay for it, but you should get to pick it out if you have to pay? JMO:)

It's custom here I'm told for big weddings and the groom to foot the bill, kind of a dowery I guess.

That said, my DILs aren't hispanic so I'm not obligated but the first one had limited funds and the second one "mine" so I didn't mind helping. They are both so grateful and easy to please.

I don't know this girl very well and I don't know what she wants. She told me "whatever I liked" and then wants to see pictures first. Go figure:')

I just had a lady around the park call me. She can make a cake for 300 dollars. Getting better. I booked rooms yesterday. 92 dollars a night. Eddie almost choked. I wasn't going to tell him about the cake yet but my compadre here did and he's freaking out:')

Well, Harley had a bath. He looks so pretty with his white mane and tail. I've noticed here lately that his coat has a funny texture compared to other horses I've had. It's shiny but doesn't feel slick like Rocky's and Rusty's or soft and smooth like my mares did. Hard to describe but it almost feels like if it was long it would be frizzy, rough:).I worm once a month so I don't think it's because of that, and like I say he's shiny. His mane and tail are silky, but his coat is different. Ever felt one like that?
