Quiche and sticks

On Friday night, Glen decided to make a new pecan pie recipe he'd found. Due to some miscommunication, the first pie shell attempt failed, and the pie crust collapsed and baked itself flat in the middle of the pan. Rather than throw it out, I suggested we keep it and I'd make something in the next day. Quiche, I decided. But on Saturday it was snowing and wet out and I couldn't find any recipes online that used only ingredients we had. So I kind of had to make it up. And it actually came out really well! I'm very impressed with myself. Didn't burn, didn't stick, and tasted yummy besides. The biggest hurdle was that all the recipes called for cream or buttermilk or something thicker than the skim milk we have. So I mixed in some ricotta cheese, and that seemed to do the trick. (Did I mention I'm impressed with me?)

Today, the club had a guest instructor to teach Filipino stick and knife fighting, and SIXTEEN people showed up for the class! This is about four times the normal number for a Sunday. I was so impressed by their timeliness and effort! Great job, guys!
