Ye Gods and Little Fishes! There’s Corruption in Chicago!
So Illinois Dem. Gov. Rod Blagojevich really didn’t care about those fired employees camping out in the Republic Windows and Doors Company?
Meanwhile, in our little red neck part of the country. (who voted for McCain)
This morning I went to the doctor and had a fasting blood test and was really hungry and thirsty afterwards so I went to Chick-fil-A for lunch.
When I drove up to the window to pay, the employee told me that my lunch had already been paid for by the person in the car in front of me so I told him I wanted to pay for the people in the car behind me and I handed him a ten dollar bill.
The guy said there would be money left over so I asked him to pay for the people behind them and the man said they were already paid for so I asked him to just put the rest of the money towards paying for the people farther back in line.
Something is in the air.
Could it be Christmas spirit??????
Oh, yes, the blood work was very good.
Just stay out of politics in Chicago. It gets pretty corrupt I hear.

Yes, Laura Lee - you made me smile with that one. And gave me a great idea. I think I'll do that this morning.
Don't you just LOVE Chick-fil-A? We have a couple of them close by my house and it is a go-to destination on Saturdays when I don't feel especially like cooking.
I am still engaged in my never ending quest to make a decent meatloaf. I can cook gourmet food in six or seven languages but I am meatloaf-impaired! Came close this past Saturday. The search continues. I have learned not to cook the silly thing for 1-1/2 hours!

Wow that is so incredible! I've heard of that at toll plazas here in New England, but never for food! Amazing.
Gayle - I have a fantastic, if old, meatloaf recipe. It's from the Betty Crocker cookbook, circa the late 1970s. Check it out - I'm sure you can find it online; it's a variant recipe - you can use oats or bread crumbs. The trick is to use a special meatloaf "blend" for the meat - hamburg, veal & pork. Makes all the difference!

Yesterday was a good day for a person not involved in a corrupt Chicago political machine who went to lunch at Chick fil-A in Fort Smith. Anyway, my family likes my meat loaf. I make it with ground beef, crackers, eggs, a little onion powder, pepper, chili powder and oregano. Then I bake it with ketchup on top. It makes great meat loaf sandwiches.
