Wednesday News

Whew...just finished our monthly shopping trip to Metro...stuff for institute, home, district and mission.  We have a district fireside next week, we have to fill the emergency food box in our apartment and we always have food to fix for institute.

The Markelovs had their baby this morning at 02:30.  Mom and son are healthy.  Since the maternity hospital does not allow visitors - and Lena will be there a week - we drove by after shopping and stood on the lawn and she showed us the baby through the fourth floor window...and we talked on the phone a little. Interesting...

Now we have an hour before class...made a quick burrito with leftovers and away we go. By the way...attached is a new enchilada sauce we now use...it is quick and easy and delicious.

Life is good.

Enchilada Sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup butter
4 T flour
1/2 chili powder
16 ounce tomato sauce
3 cups water
1/2 t cumin
1/2 t garlic powder
1/2 t onion salt
Heat oil and butter in skillet over medium-high heat.  Stir in flour and chili powder, reduce heat to medium and cook until lightly browned, stirring constantly to prevent burning flour. Gradually stir in tomato sauce, water, cumin, garlic powder and onion salt into the flour and chili powder until smooth.  Continue cooking over medium heat ten minutes or until thickened slightly.  Season to taste with salt.
