Love Day...

V-day started early... J went out and bought the girls donuts (which they so desperately kept asking for all week). They opened their cards & J invited them to the Siloam Springs father & daughter dance (held on Sat). Then at 1 we all went to Madison's school to help out her class w/their party.









J is in charge of our anniv. & I'm in charge of V-day, so I had planned on making J his favorite food - which at the moment is chicken wings. I made homemade ranch dressing, 2 sauces for the wings, and then started to heat the oil I was to fry these wings in (please note I despise raw meat, touching it, smelling it, yes it completely makes me sick). SO I stick a therm. in the hot oil and it falls in, I get it out and it shatters. Next I put 2 frozen wings in & the oil comes splattering everywhere and smoke engulfs our house. It was so bad detectors were going off. I quickly turn off the oil and decide I should just bake them. I wipe up the mess (and Elise walks across the kitchen and still slips from the oil). J came home and saved the wings.... and just laughed! But he says he felt loved (b/c I was handling raw meat & cooking all in the same day) - There were other presents but we need to keep this blog rated G. :)
