JMS in person...

So, this video stuff is pretty cool. I'm really impressed with how easy this little Kodak camera is...it has this little arm (USB) that pops out and I just hit the upload button and it transfers my video straight to my blog. Unreal! Now, if anyone knows how to edit these videos before I put them on...they won't be so long or boring. I took this video b/c I realized some of our friends back in Washington and other places around the world have only ever seen still pictures of JMS. Well...now here he is...live...talking...moving...and eventually I'll capture him doing something and he'll crack you up like he does us...we love him to pieces.

Dinner tonight...I made baked potato soup: baked 4 large potatoes until soft (450 about 1 hour and 10 min)

In my new dutch oven (thank you mom and dad) crisped 3 slices of bacon. In the bacon grease I cooked 1 small onion - chopped, and 1 clove of garlic -minced. Then I added 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp basil, 1/2 tsp pepper, 3 Tbsp flour. Stir. Then I poured in one box of chicken broth ...about four cups. Bring to a boil. Then add the potato...scraped out of the skin and mushed with a fork. I then added 1 cup of heavy whipping cream...you could use half/half...whatever you have on hand. And...if you can handle it...1/2 tsp of hot sauce. I haven't served it yet...but I plan on topping with cheese...sour cream...chives...and bacon. Mmm...great for a cold KY night.

I may not have commented, but I did refer one of my friends to your blog for the recipe :)
