International Night

Yesterday was a busy day! Chad switched his work schedule with another guy so he could stay home with the kids while I scrapbooked ALL day! What a great guy! I was there from 10-4 and had a good time.

I had to leave scrapping early to make some food for our Sunday school's International food night. I was making Chinese food so I made some Orange Chicken, rice, and broccoli.

When we got back to the church, I walked in and saw everyone decorating their tables according to their country and was so embarassed. Here we came with our dinky 3 dish meal and walked past ornate tables full of food. So, we put the cream colored tablecloth on and spread out our food as much as we could ( I wish I had a picture to show) and Susan let me have her cupcakes to put on the table to make it look fuller!

The dinner was great and I loved eating food from other countries and liked even more that all my chicken was gone and I didn't have to take anything home!

I thought we were home free from embarrasment and then Susan had each of us stand by our tables and say why we chose that country. We were the last to go and I couldn't think of anything to say so I said "We chose China because I like the Orange Chicken from Costco" (I think Costco should give me free food for that little free advertising) and Chad piped up, "And we would have had posters but China censored all of it". Everyone laughed at our comments and I was able to go home happy and tired!
