“Are we doing lunch?” This morning I awoke to the ringing of the phone and the voice on the other end saying “Are we doing lunch?” If you’re thinking this is a nice surprise, please think again. It was my husband on the other end. It didn’t mean he wanted to take me out for a pre-Mother’s Day lunch, it meant was I cooking today. Hmm . . . let me think before I answer. Yes, I am cooking lunch today. I normally cook for four men at noon which includes our ranch workers and my husband. When I concurred that I was “doing lunch” today, he said, “add two more”.  That will make six men who have labored all morning and me for lunch. The phone rang as I was typing this. It's actually three more for lunch. OK, it's OK! I'll just thaw that extra meat; it's only eight. The good thing about early morning surprises, is that I can usually look back to the designing from the night before and be assured that there will again be time at the end of this day for that fulfilling activity. Thus, as I sprang into action from that early morning (yes, I know HE had been up for hours and done half a day’s work already) phone call, I peered at the design tray from the previous night’s work. Ah, . . . I DID accomplish something. (shown in the pictures) NOW – can I accomplish lunch? Let’s see; how does chicken fried steak, rice, gravy, beans, salad and pecan pie sound? I’d better get busy! By the way, I really like to cook and I could have said no. Good grief, I hear the phone again. Should I answer?
