Picnic Meal
Topic: Hallettsville Assignment

For those of you who are wondering how things have been for me since ordination.  It has been a while since I have posted an entry.  I have greatly enjoyed my priesthood.  The people of Hallettsville have been good...too good.  The Kolaches and Pig-in-a-Blankets are absolutely delightful.  My plan, that I tell everyone, is not to lose wait but to maintain the weight I have.  If I can do this then I think I have performed a great feat in Hallettsville, not gaining the "New Priest" / "Hallettsville" 40, 50, or more.

Let me tell you about what I have been up to today...

It is now 10:30pm and I have just finished cleaning up from a dinner that I auctioned off at our last parish picnic.  I started cooking today at 3:00 this afternoon, not to mention the cheesecake and gumbo that I cooked yesterday...well I just did mention it.  Despite the long time on my feet, the evening turned out to be a great one.  The group that showed up was minus one and insisted I sit down with them, so I got to enjoy the meal with my guests.  I failed to mention to them that I had been sampling the meal throughout the afternoon.  We had a hoot of a time and ate to our fill and drank as much.  Six hours of cooking was enjoyed for two hours and required two hours of clean-up.  Crazy, but worth it!
