Hello everyone! In a few minutes I am heading over to Nathan and Kate's with Tim for a deer meat dinner. You see, we discovered this gigantic cache of deer meat in my freezer. The Ratcliffes are quite the hunting family, and they seem to have more deer meat around than they know what to do with. Tim decided that we needed to eat some of the sausage, so Kate is going to whip up a deer meat pizza this evening, and Nathan is going to make stuffed mushrooms. It should be quite tasty. We have to be done by 8:00 though so I can get home for 24!
I had such a fun time last night with Angie and Matt in Vicksburg!! They are such cool people, and I am grateful to have them as friends. They make being here in Mississippi a lot of fun. Angie and I had a nice drive up there after work, then we all just kind of hung out for the evening. I got to see Angie's new garden that she has put in since finishing the semester last week--it is totally awesome. She and I had to leave pretty early this morning in order to make it to work by 8:30, but we did it. She's a real trooper--making that commute each day! Then this afternoon, she and I went and grabbed a hamburger at the Malt Shop. That place has our favorite sign: "Shakes, Malts, and Sundies." Sundies?? That's how you pronounce the word here in the South, but as far as I knew, it was still spelled "sundaes."
Today at work I had some fun people on my tours. I think I got asked if I was a Mormon like 20 times. People always ask where I'm from (because they can tell I'm not from the South--my accent gives it away), and then the first question after they find out I'm from the Beehive State is always, "Oh, are you a Mormon?" The next question is always, "Well how did you end up here?" Sorry I was kind of late posting today--I wasn't ever really near a computer until after I got home this evening. Well, it's off to the deer fest in a little while!
