I picked up Grandpa Milo and Grandma Sarah at the airport yesterday.  They plan to be here for a week.  I think the focus of the week will be cooking!  Grandpa says he is going to teach Kelly and Christian to cook Chicken Cordon Bleu, Cornish Game Hens, and a special pasta dish.  The Chicken Cordon Bleu includes Grandpa Milo’s own special blend of spices that he says he might modify a little to make it a little hotter for us Mexicans.  It should be a lot of fun.

When we arrived at the house, the first thing Grandpa Milo did was pick several of the small (about 1 inch) persimmons from the tree at the end of the driveway.  They are already ripe and VERY tasty.  Maybe we ought to think about making some persimmon jelly, too.
