Recipe Exchange for June!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Meet & Eat at my house last Wednesday! It was fun to chat w/everyone and exchange some ideas!

For the month of JUNE we are exchanging SALAD RECIPES! This can be a green salad, fruit salad, pasta salad, etc. We've had a couple requests for easy, fast recipes as well so keep that in mind. I don't know about you, but I'm really excited about getting some new salad recipes! Make sure you keep an eye on your email inbox this week OR if you haven't been getting the e-mail and would like to, please email me your email address at kylenekelly@gmail.com!

Also, from now we will forward our recipes onto everyone on the e-mail list. This means if everyone on the list participates, you'll get 10+ new recipes every month!

I'll also be posting a recipe on this blog and bringing index-size copies to church every month for those of you that don't have internet access.

Here's the salad recipe I'm putting in the e-mail:

CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD
Han's recipe

Dressing:
1/4 cp oil
2 TB white or cider vinegar
2 TB sugar
1 tsp accent
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp dry mustard
2 TB sesame seeds

Salad:
1 head lettuce, broken up
4 cooked chicken breasts, shredded or cut into pieces
4 green onions, chopped
3 TB chopped almonds
12 fried wonton skins, crushed

Put all dressing ingredients into a container and mix thoroughly. Put in fridge to chill. Add salad ingredients together. Spread dressing over salad, toss, and serve!

One more quilt left!

Tonight at 7pm we will be tying off a quilt from the Relief Society Birthday celebration last month. There will be cookies and we'll be on the church lawn enjoying the lovely weather! Remember that this quilt will be going to Humanitarian Aid, too. Hope to see you there and have a great week!

*Reminder: 9 more days left to do your visiting teaching!

Neighborhood BBQ

Just a reminder about the neighborhood BBQ tomorrow (Saturday April, 18th) They are going to start cooking at 3pm! So come and get to know your neighbors! Please remember to bring a salad if you signed up for one! If you didn't sign up for one and would like to bring a salad that would be greatly appreciated! Hope to see you there!

Recipe Exchange!

This month we're starting a recipe exchange group! This group is super easy to participate in and will benefit everyone! Here is what you need to know/do:

*Every week there will be recipes exchanged via email (and hard copies on Sundays for those who don't have internet), just follow the directions in the email.

*Every month there will be a theme (e.g. international cuisine, fast/easy meals, desserts, crockpot, etc).

*At the end of every month a recipe will be chosen and we'll get together to make it in the church kitchen. We'll all help eat it, of course ;)

*If you didn't get a chance to put your email on the sign-up, you can leave your email address in the comments to this post or you can email it to lakeridge7wrs@gmail.com.

*March and April's theme will be combined and we'll make the recipe at the end of April since there are a lot of activities going on in March :)

Happy cooking!

The Errand of Angels

We have a date and time for the enrichment activity in March. We will be celebrating the birthday of the Relief Society by learning about the history of our organization and getting a chance to contribute in both local and global ways!

March 31 6:30-8pm.
We'll have snacks and (hopefully) babysitting.
We've invited the Young Women!

Get your Bump-Set-Spike on!

I finally found a few spots among the crazy gym schedule to fit in volleyball in the next couple months! I know these times won't work for everyone and I am truly bummed about that, sorry. If you can't come one week, just try to come when you can. If it's baby's bedtime see if Daddy (or Grandma, etc) can do it! That way the menfolk can go to basketball when we get home, right? *Times may be added in March and April, depending on availability and participation, so check back frequently or listen up in RS announcements! Hope to see you there!

Fun YW Service Auction in March! Earn points NOW! Learn how below...

Message from JaiCi Razak on auction details:

Alright, we want to encourage every one of the Relief Society sisters to donate some type of "service" to the auction. It can be ANYTHING!!! Some examples are: babysitting, home-made goodies (like fudge or caramel popcorn or to-die-for cinnamon rolls), home-made quilt, hair cut (hint, hint Kylene hehehe), set of homemade cards, canned peaches, etc, etc. Anything that you might think someone else would benefit from or enjoy. Also, you are allowed (and encouraged) to donate more than one thing if you wish. Donating will earn you BIG points the night of the auction!! And, if you donate 3 things, then your points will be that much more, etc, etc, etc... Then, through out the months of Jan, Feb, March the sisters get to earn points that they will use to bid on the donated items that night. Some things that they can earn points by doing are things like; having family home evening, doing service anonymously, doing your VISITING TEACHING, writing a missionary, going to the temple, etc, etc. WE have some preliminary lists that we will be bringing into RS by the end of January so that the sisters know what kind of things we are looking for. We will also have a sign-up sheet for donations by the end of January and we will make the effort to remind the sisters that volunteer. However, even bringing something that night counts. Then, that night we will set up everything that's for "auction" and have some tally sheets for the sisters to tally all the points that they have earned the past 3 months. Then we will have an auction and the girls will run it. Then, we will have some fun prizes for things such as "got the most bids" "got the highest bid", fun things like that.
Also, we were wondering if between the two Relief Societies we could have some "treaters" brought for before the auction starts. Maybe just some finger foods and juice. Not a dinner, but something to keep us entertained and busy before the fun begins :)

More details to come.......

Note from Kylene: I already know a few things I am going to dontate: a couple haircuts, 2 haircolor services (all-over color or partial weave), a photo shoot w/complete hairstyle & makeup, and maybe some scrapbooking supplies! Get the juices flowing, I can't wait for this auction!!! I hope someone is donating babysitting!!!! ;)

Just a reminder...

Remeber that this weekend is stake conference. Saturday at 7pm is the adult session. Sunday church is at 10am. Hope to see you there! Have a wonderful rest of the week!
