I am a social butterfly (if you knew me, that statement would be hilarious)

My youngest sister and her family were in town over the weekend. It was awesome to spend time with her and my nephew. He is just over a year old and walking everywhere. I also have a seven year old nephew who will be spending an entire week with me later this summer. We have a golf and tennis camp where I work and he's going to do that. I can't wait!

This is going to be a busy week, both at work and socially. Tonight, it's dinner and out to a bar with a couple of friends. Tomorrow night it's Pensacola to see the Molly Ringwald's. Wednesday we have a huge bbq at work. Thursday and Friday are still up in the air, but I think they are going to fill up soon. I'm usually more of a homebody, so after this week I'll be ready to hibernate at home for awhile.

Mother Sauce #4....

Veloute: In the most basic terms, a white stock thickened with white roux. It is the foundation for myriad sauces and can be flavored in infinite ways.

Tomato is also a mother sauce, but I'm going to skip a definition for it, because, well...because it's tomato sauce. Everyone knows what it is.

Lunch today was a sandwich made with toasted white bread, chicken salad, american cheese, bacon, lettuce, and tomato with bbq chips. I tend to get stuck on one thing and I eat it until I get sick of it. For the last week, that one thing has been chicken salad.
