It was a good day........

I woke up early on Deepavali day. Yawn. Stretch. At 8 a.m., I was already busy in the kitchen preparing the ingredients for my world famous chicken pie...8 friends came over & I had to bake 3 large chicken pies. Timing was perfect. 1st one was ready by 10:30 a.m. I know I`m running the risk of being accused of patting my own back, but anyhow, it was scrumptious ! Popped the 2nd one into the turbo broiler & guess what.....my whole area experienced a power failure. Awww, man....Somehow, we managed with just one pie, lotsa dessert, a mocha cake ( brought over by a friend ).....and how-r-u-what-have-u-been-doings.......

Evening was spent visiting 2 friends who actually celebrated Deepavali ( unlike me ) and another supper appointment at Mc D`s to counsel a friend who had to nurse a broken heart. My head rested on my pillow @ home only at 2 a.m.

It was a day well spent......
