A New Day!

Well, today was a very interesting day because I was released from my calling. I have been the first councilor in the Relief Society for two and half years. It has been a very good experience and I did learn a lot but boy am I happy to be released!! I have been over the teachers and the music in our ward and I never worried about it. The teachers always did a great job and there was always good music every Sunday. I rarely ever had a problem. I feel bad because I am not more sad but I guess its just time to move on and time for new people to take it over. I am surprised about all the crap that goes on in a ward. I guess that's not nice to say but not knowing it all will be great for me!! Sometimes it was hard to have a positive attitude but for the most part I feel like I tried to be a good example. I hope I did a good job but for this week while I am callingless I will enjoy!!

I know what you mean about the "crap" going on in the ward thing. I get phone call every once in a while of people telling me things that I don't want to know. It's good though to move on from on from a more burdened calling. Have fun in Nursery.

Chicken Mushroom Artichoke Soup

2 whole chicken breast, 2 cans Artichoke hearts (not marinated) Set aside the juice, 2 large Portabella mushrooms, 1 small onion, 2 Cups Chicken Stock, 2 Cups Cream, Salt and Pepper, 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda, 4 Tablespoons butter, Grill Chicken and chop into cubes. In a stock pot add butter, chopped onion and chopped mushrooms. Suttee until onions is cooked. Add juice from the artichokes and chicken stock. Add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. Add cream. Add chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add chopped up artichoke hearts. Simmer for at least a half hour. I enjoy making up recipes. This is a soup I tasted at one of our favorite resturants. I tried to figure out what was in it and I think its pretty close. So, this is not my original idea but I did make up this recipe.
