Cooking Update

Cake Decorating
Monday was supposed to be the first day of my (re-scheduled) cake decorating class. But, it didn't happen. When I got to the store, I found out the class had been postponed because the Wilton people did not get the instruction books sent to the store. The instructor said that she was going to call and get them sent straight to her so she'd be sure she had them so we can start next week. Plus, she said she's going to try to get us an extra free gift for the trouble! Yeah for free stuff! Actually, it wasn't so bad for me, but I feel really bad if anyone was from one of the outlying towns and had a 20 or 30 minute drive.


Recipes of the Week
I've tried lots of new recipes that I haven't posted. Most of them are for Mexican food. It occured to me last week that I'd tried 2 or 3 Mexican entrees in a row. So, I made a Mexican salad to take to the pool party we went to Saturday. But then I made a really yummy Italian dish on Sunday. I just checked the blog and the last new thing I posted was June 13! I'm really going to have to dig deep in my memory to recall what all I've made. Let's see:


Week of 8/2- Black Bean & Corn Salad, Pasta Carbonara
Week of 7/26 - Grilled Chicken & Veggie Tacos
Week of 7/19 - Chicken Taquitos
Week of 7/12 - Neiman Marcus Bars
Week of 7/5 - maybe nothing; I was out of town most of the week, but it seems like I did *something* new the day I left.
Week of 6/28 - Roasted Chicken Breasts w/ Lemon
Week of 6/21 - no idea
Week of 6/14 - no idea


So, that's 2 totally unaccounted for weeks, plus 1 week I'm not sure about. I'll have to scan through my camera and see if that jogs my memory
