and I didn’t kill anyone either! darn it!
So today was the teachers Luncheon for which I sent in $3, donated a door prize & main course item for the meal and volunteered my time to help.
Apparently I can cook. I donated a Pork Loin Crown Roast, we had been given one and as my husband doesn’t eat pork and it is really large, there was no way the kids and I were going to be able to eat it and while I’m sure I could have waited until we had guests, only The Man Himself knows when THAT is going to happen, so I thought to myself, “Self, what a better way to use up that Crown Roast in the freezer that is awkwardly shaped and taking up space.” So never having done one of these types of roast and not having my cookbooks yet, I looked to the good ol’ internet to find me a recipe. I came across this one and it turned out great!(if I do say so myself) The way all the teachers went on about it you would have thought Gordon Ramsay himself had done it up.
I am assuming that my Avon gift basket went over a treat, as I have not heard otherwise. I have to say it was nice to meet other parents as having been here a year I haven’t met many outside of the few from Oldest Large Child’s class friends. Maybe I’ll have to start making a regular habit of this volunteering at the school thing ….
