They already do wonder about me! Now they're gonna wonder about you
because you're related to me! I'll just have to tell them that you're
not a blonde and you're pretty brilliant! You make good Chicken
Marsalla too!
That reminds me of another little funny story though it's not
really a "church" story but it has to do with our beliefs.
I learned how to make Chicken Marsalla by helping Jan in the
kitchen at her sister's 25th wedding anniversary a month or so ago.
When I came home I had to try it out on my husband. Well to make
Chicken Marsalla you need Marsalla wine (the alcohol cooks out in the
oven). Well, my daughter and I went to the store and the liquor
department was the first stop. I got 1 bottle of Marsalla wine and
placed in right in the top holder (usually where us ladies put our
purses). My daughter Joy, was feeling a little self conscious and said,
"Mom, just as sure as you have that stuff in the cart for the whole
world to see, we're going to run into some Apostolic person that we
know". Sure enough, on the very next isle, there was Sister Pierce and
her husband (he had never received the holyghost but would visit once
in a while). She was from the church that we used to go to. My daughter
was pretty embarassed, but it didn't really bother me. I explained that
I was making Chicken Marsalla and how I got the recipe and her husband
jokingly told me that was a pretty lame excuse. It was pretty funny,
especially if you were there!
