Check out my friend's rack

Yesterday I found out that Paula and Michelle(!) don't like Glee.

Why would Kurt tell Santa about Paula's and Michelle's Glee bashing?  Because Kurt moonlights as an Elf On The Shelf.

The Susan G Komen Race For The Cure is this weekend in Charlotte.  I'm not running in it, but I've been handing out bibs and t-shirts for the last few weeks.  Breast cancer isn't an issue that has ever affected myself or any of my family members.  The only tie that I have to it is through my friend Karen.  Her mother was diagnosed this spring and is still undergoing chemo treatments after having two surgeries.  This is the cool wig and scarf rack that Karen made for her mom.

Karen has more creativity in her left pinkie than I would have if there were two of me.  I loved the relationship she and her mother have and the humor they maintain throughout her mom's treatment process.  You can read about it in her blog post here.

I have made three things from my meal plan so far.  The first was the fruit turnovers.  It's just apple and pear that has been sauteed in a skillet and then baked in puff pastry.  Easy.

Then yesterday morning I did the English muffin with arugula and poached eggs.  Poaching eggs isn't all that easy, but I'm a bad ass.  The pasties and the poached eggs aren't really anything new.  I've made them a few times before.

Last night I did a brand new item from my collection of recipes torn from Family Circle mags, the Salmon burgers.

They were actually pretty easy.  You could really use canned Salmon too.  Just add some Panco bread crumbs, lime juice and diced (seeded) jalapeno then put in the skillet for a couple of minutes.  The sauce is what really made this awesome.  It's mayo (1/4 cup), lime juice (2 tbs), cilantro, salt and pepper.  Delish.  Here is the recipe if you want it.  I'm not typing it all out and my scanner doesn't work.

Does this count as a Three Things Thursday post?
