SUNDAY NIGHT - THE BEGINNING OF SOMETHING GOOD

Good evening! My what a week - and what a week beginning today! I am ready for a vacation or just a few relaxing days! There seems to be something pop up regularly. LTC is this weekend and tonight we heard West Erwin and Shiloh chorus' sing and they were all very, very good. Of course I was prejudice as I listened my my sweet Maura's beautiful voice as she sang with Shiloh's 3rd and 4th grade chorus. Then Shiloh's high school chorus was so totally awesome -- they should receive something better than just gold. I can imagine God had cold chills to as I did while I listened to them. It was good seeing so many good friends from the past too - especially Ron and Pam Lott.

On Tuesday the doctor is going to inject my back - hoping to relieve the pain from the bulging disk that almost cuts off the spinal fluid in my lower back - hoping that it will shrink itself. Everyone has been so nice - Billie Usrey is cooking hamburgers on Wednesday night in my place, Trish was so nice about me not going to be able to help on Tuesday night at the EEM dinner.

I have been wanting to make bread again ever since I made it for the ETCA auction, but it always seems I don't have 2 or 3 hours to wait on it! I talked to my sister-in-law and she said it is really easier than I made it. So if nothing happens - tomorrow evening - I am trying again! Here is the recipe that I am going to try again!

MARILYN’S HOT ROLL RECIPE

2 Packages Active Dry Yeast
2 Cups Warm Water (120 to 130 degrees F)
½ Cup Cooking Oil
½ Cup Sugar
1 Beaten Egg
1 Tsp. Salt
5 Cups Flour

DIRECTIONS

Combine Yeast, water, sugar, and salt. Allow to sit a couple of minutes. Add beaten egg and combine well. Mix in 5 cups flour. Cover with plastic wrap. Place in warm place and allow to rise until double in size. Punch down and make two loaves of bread or rolls. Put on board with a little flour and knead slightly just to be able to make two loaves and get into greased pan. Allow to rise until it starts to rise. (Don’t let it rise too much or it will rise too much in oven and then fall. Bake in 375 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until when you thump it, it sounds hollow. Remove from oven and let cool for a couple of minutes and then remove from pans. Enjoy!!!

Have a great Monday - get up and make the choice it will be good! I promise you will feel better if you do something nice for someone else. I am even going to choose to not get upset at our Monday meeting that usually is very trying!!!

May God bless all of you!!!
