Thursday Night

I just got off of work, on a Thursday night.  Around 7 pm.  I made an awesome salad, and am watching an awesome movie, Knowing, suggest it!, and made an awesome no sugar added dessert.  

cubed apples peels on
lay on bakers sheet
sprinkle cinnamon and wheat germ or oats on apples
put pieces of lowfat butter spread on top,
bake on 325 until apples are soft, and wheat germ is crusty

if you want to, you can put a little mashed sweet potatoes mixed up in it.

whip up heavy whipping cream and pour on top

Not bad, for no sugar added. :o)

Oregon with Amy!



















































Mt. Hood, OR

























This axe was used in the movie The Shining.  I am pretending to be Jack Nicholson. :o)

                                                                                                                                       









































































                                                             Amy   
gets ready to surf at Short Sands, OR...and she's going out!  She did great!













   






























































Amy and I went to Seattle for a day.  She kept saying she had 2 surprises for me.  It ended up being a huge wall in an alleyway that tons of people have put their gum on over the years, and humungous cement troll that I am sitting on.  :o)

The fireworks pics are from Fourth of July at Amy's friends house on the river that flows through the middle of Portland.  









































































































































































































 






























Outer Banks, NC

































I had such a fantastic time with my second family this year at the Outer Banks.  It was so great to spend time with Jeanette and Amy, who live far away now.  And to spend quality time with the other fam that lives in Baltimore.  We did miss Jen and Tim though, as Jen wasn't able to make it this year, and Tim had to leave early.  But, all in all, we had a wonderful time relaxing and regrouping.
