I read something today that just made me shake my head. Kendra Wilkinson, one of Hugh Hefner’s former girlfriend’s who lived in the Playboy Mansion with him, is living on her own for the first time. And apparently she’s got a thing or two to learn. She admitted to People magazine that a few months ago she sent a piece of mail… without putting a stamp on it, because she didn’t know she needed to! In her own words, “My mom, she was like, ‘Are you serious? You didn’t put a stamp on your mail?’ I’m like, ‘Dude, I’ve never been on my own before, how am I supposed to know?’ “ The girl is 23 years old. Even if you’ve gotten to be that age and never mailed a piece of mail yourself before (I’m guessing because you’ve always had employees around the house to do those things for you) wouldn’t you know that someone at least needs to put a stamp on mail before it’s sent? Can anyone really be that stupid sheltered? Apparently they can.
I have a recipe that one of my aunts sent to me over a year ago that I’ve been meaning to try because it sounded great but just kept forgetting about it. Well, I finally tried it tonight and it was a very good, easy, fast dinner. It’s an omelet made in a plastic freezer bag. My aunt said she made them with my cousin’s girl scout troop years ago. Take 2 eggs and put them in a plastic freezer bag (needs to be one that is labeled freezer, not just storage, and I used a quart sized one). Add a small amount of whatever omelet ingredients you want (I added cheese, tomatoes, green pepper, green onions, and mushrooms),salt and pepper to taste, and knead the ingredients and eggs together in the plastic bag. Drop the bag into a pan of boiling water and boil for 9 minutes. It slides right out of the bag and is a perfect sized omelet for most. It turned out perfect and there was little mess to clean up. I used all fresh produce freshly chopped. I will definitely be making this again! And just for fun, I added a picture I took recently at the beach down below. My sister says the world does not need any more pictures of seagulls, but I liked how this one turned out so I’m sharing.
