Recipe of the Week: Strawberry-Banana Smoothie

Whew, it’s been a busy week. And on top of all the usual stuff, we’ve decided to buy a new house. Although the decision was a big one, it pales in comparison to thinking about getting one ready to sell. I know we all wonder how we collect so much stuff, but I can’t get over packing 12 boxes so far, out of one 6x10 room, and still not make a dent in it. I probably have more in that little Butler’s Pantry (aka: my office) than any room in the entire house. I’ve come to the conclusion that once I’m through with it, the rest of the house will be a breeze. So, if you are interested in buying a circa 1912 Bungalow on one of the prettiest and most historic streets in Brownsville, give me a call.

Lots of Relay fundraisers still going on. Today is the last day to order a fully-cooked Boston Butt for the Memorial Day holiday - call Haywood Helping Hands at 772-3690. Saturday you can pick up a sack lunch at First State Insurance on the square, then go down to the main fire station and get your car washed. Before you leave there, pick up a couple plates for supper. The firemen will be grilling until 4 p.m. Two meals and your car washed all in one day and without you lifting a finger (except to eat), plus you’ll help raise money for a very worthy cause. All proceeds from all three sales go to Relay for Life.
