A day in the life of President Bush (1/23/05) photos
WhiteHouse.gov; various news sources ^ | 1/23/05

The first family attended church this morning. Afterwards, the President headed to Camp David where he was to meet with his advisors to work on his State of the Union Address.

QUOTE OF THE DAY: At this second gathering, our duties are defined not by the words I use, but by the history we have seen together. For a half century, America defended our own freedom by standing watch on distant borders. After the shipwreck of communism came years of relative quiet, years of repose, years of sabbatical - and then there came a day of fire.

Some, I know, have questioned the global appeal of liberty - though this time in history, four decades defined by the swiftest advance of freedom ever seen, is an odd time for doubt. Americans, of all people, should never be surprised by the power of our ideals. Eventually, the call of freedom comes to every mind and every soul. We do not accept the existence of permanent tyranny because we do not accept the possibility of permanent slavery. Liberty will come to those who love it.

President George W. Bush, 2nd Inaugural Address, January 20, 2005

***230 C converts to 446 Fahrenheit if anyone was wondering.***

You are no doubt right, but my recipe for Yorkshire pudding calls for a 425 F. oven, and I think maybe 446 would be too hot.

Crawford would be fun for sure. We have to get to San Antonio for a convention the following week though, so will be making a bee-line for that destination.

But maybe Crawford on the way home....??

By all means, go out of your way!
We went just to see the town and ended up seeing Marine 1, AF1, and got to take a couple of drives by the ranch. The countryside is gorgeous, despite how much the media howls about having to go there...

We will be meeting up with some Albertans in San Antonio at the convention I mentioned in an earlier post. They decided to drop south for a mid-winter escape too!

Yes that we work as we have taken in the UK to make giant yorkshires and put fillings in them such as casserole and curry etc; personally I prefer the traditional way but stew especially if the gravy is thick would work.

I like the taste of sugary food but not the feeling I get from eating it!

I think it's good to learn about various religions (some of which are really cults!) because then you can discuss your beliefs more intelligently if necessary.

Glad you're enjoying it! Fascinating, isn't it?

No, our library doesn't have "The Tipping Point" but I'm definitely going to get it thru InterLibrary Loan.

I remove part of my beef stew gravy to thicken it with butter and flour into a sort of roux, then return it to the pot, so it would be nice with the pudding.

I love the idea of using the Yorkshire in a larger form and filling it with casserole ingredients. How big are the serving sizes, and what type of dish do you use to bake them? Would ramekins work?

Now would you both join me in emailing FOX about their pitiful "reporters" on Fox and Friends on the weekend? It's like being in a frat house. I've been sinding emails but since MIke, Juliette, and Julian are STILL on it's obviously not enough. The DID read an email sent to them this AM stating my feelngs too, so maybe they'll get the hint.

Hi homemom...

I was born and raised right where I am now. Why, pray tell, would your sister choose to move to Canada. I gather she met her Canadian husband in college? I would have thought he'd have jumped at the chance to stay in America. I tell my teens that if they get the chance to move to the US, take it.

Gotta love those Albertans. Cattle, oil, all the good stuff out there. Then there's Ontario. Ontario is Canada's New York State, British Columbia is Canada's California...politically speaking.

I bake my Yorkshire pudding at 450 degrees and it comes out fine. I watch it pretty close tho!

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but when we do ours, we mix it up with the same basic ingredients, then pour it into the pan in which the roast was, using the drippings to grease the pan. If you do that, just cover the roast with foil on antoher plate to keep it warm, and if there are any little bits of meat stuck to the pan (in the grease) leave them as they'll bake into the pudding.

Maybe I am just lucky but I do not seem to be alergic to anything.

I'm allergic to nuts, and that's a shame.
I used to LOVE peanut butter!
