Well, Wednesday morning I went out to start my car, because it had iced that night. The door was frozen shut so I tapped around the door like I was taught to do and the door opened. I started the car and shut the door. I went back in the house and got my stuff. I got in the car and the door was hard to shut, I didn’t think to much about it and went to work. When I turned in the parking lot at work (which is 35 miles from home) the drivers door flew open. I parked the car, got out shut the door and it wouldn’t close. I tried to shut it a little harder this time and it still would not shut. I was running late so I went on in. At lunch I came out and the door was open. I tried working the door handle and the lock, it still would not close. A couple of the guys I work with said that they would look at it after work, they did and it was the latch. It was broke, we couldn’t fix it. So after about 30 minutes, we had to tie the door shut with me in the car. I had to hold the door shut all the way home.
When I got home, I found out that the tire on my truck was flat. I had to call my brother and ask him to come over and try to fix it. I had to take the day off work to get my truck fixed, so I can get to work. I lost a days pay which really sucks swamp water. With what I make, I can’t afford taking off a day. I still have to get the car fixed and that is about $300. That is a paycheck and an additional $50.
This week has just sucked. I hope someone else had a better one.
These are just a few recipes that me and mine like. Hope you like them too!
I’m going to try to put a couple new ones up a week. If you got any you want to share, fill free.
And for some reason you don’t like them, maybe the next ones I put up you will.
This ones easy!
This makes 1 -9 inch pie. It serves about 8 depending on how big you cut the pieces.

2 eggs
3 tablespoons Hershey’s cocoa powder or any unsweetened cocoa powder will do.
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pie crust – 9 inch (Deep dish works best.)
1. Mix together the butter, eggs, cocoa, sugar, milk, and vanilla with a mixer until smooth.
Pour filling into unbaked pie shell.
2. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until set.
Let cool before cutting.
