i made dinner!

yes folks, you read that correctly. i gave nana the night off and i had dinner duty tonight. on the menu was tamale pie and a green salad. this is the second time i have made tamale pie and tonight it was especially tasty because i added more cheese this time around. i don't know about you all, but i love me some cheese! it was pretty good, if i may say so myself.
so, i heard that sophie had another rough day at school. the morning drop off went well; it wasn't until they had to come in off of the playground that the drama started. what can i say? the girl loves to swing on the swings, but when the bell rings, the fun has to end. we had a nice long chat tonight and i hope it was enough to put an end to that behavior. so hopefully from here on out, her teachers will hear "ok, i'll line up" instead of "I don't want to line up...i still want to play on the swings!" i'll keep my fingers crossed for that one. please pray for sophie to remember her "listening ears" at school.
in addition to cooking dinner, i have been on this cupcake kick lately. i don't know what it is, but they're just so easy and fun to make. i've been experimenting on different ways to frost and decorate them. i have to say that it seems like good "therapy" for me. if i had money, i would be looking for a different therapy of the retail kind. i believe the cupcakes are a nice substitute and are probably saving me a lot of money.
as i leave you tonight, i would like to request prayers for my job search and for everyone's health. i would also like to give thanks for the cool weather; i absolutely love this time of year. oak glen, here we come...well, soon anyways.
