Stevie Wonder and Some Homemade Potato Soup!

Good evening!

I love laughing with my sweetie!! Jason and I just watched one my favorite episode of the Cosby Show, yes, I said the Cosby Show! That is how we roll here in Christinaville!! LOL!! This episode is the one where Stevie Wonder’s limo is in a car accident with Theo and Denise. Well, long story short Stevie Wonder invites the family to come to the recoding studio where they proceed to help him record a song! It is just too funny!! I have always LOVED watching the Cosby Show, Claire and Cliff Huxtable’s relationship is always so idylic, yes I realize it is fiction, but I can’t help but be happy when watching one of these reruns.

Jason is in the dining room right now, playing his guitar. He is doing such a great job teaching himself how to play, I am just so proud of him.

Today was the first day of his new job, and it sounds like he is going to be very happy there, which makes me sooooo excited for him!! He has been hired on at one of the local storage companies to be a handyman for their facility. That is so right up his alley, having always been a Mr. Fix-it! And it sounds like he really enjoys his bosses, so that is always a HUGE plus!!

As for the homemade potato soup? Well, since it was Jason’s first day, I decided to make him some ham and potato soup, which I had never done before, but I know how much he likes to have a hearty soup. So, as soon as I got home from work, I got busy chopping vegetables, sauteeing, boiling, brewing, and just having a good time playing in the kitchen by myself. Well, the moment came for him to try it, and I was nervous, but of course I had nothing to worry about – Jason ate TWO bowls full!!! Which is great because it is made of mostly veggies and broth!! SO delicious, and so healthy!! He made me feel like a million dollars tonight.

Before I leave for the evening, I can’t forget my 5 Grattitiudes:

I am thankful that Jason has a job that he will be happy at
I am thankful that God has gifted us with the joy of laughter and that we are able to laugh so easily together
I am thankful that my family loves me, even if it is from afar
I am thankful for friends at work, and for laughing at lunch so hard that we all end up crying & near hyperventilating
I am thankful that God has blessed every day, and continues to bless us more and more

With that said,

Have a FABULOUS evening!! 😉
