Seniors make PARMESAN CHICKEN

This was delicious served with alfredo egg noodles and green salad.  The recipe is at the bottom - after all the pictures!

Then we went downstairs to work on MARTHA WASHINGTON quilt squares.  THe plan is to make 12 of them into pillows and give 8 of them to vets on VETERANS DAY.  PATRIOTIC RIGHT?  Then the girls will also each have one to enter the fair.  This was challenging - we learned how to MASS PRODUCE triangles!  Here Donna and Kathleen are marking out the grid.

And then Kathleen is sewing up and down 1/4" each side of the diagonal lines..... 

and here Eliza is cutting on ALL the solid lines. 

Once ironed out - VOILA - lotsa triangles - some red, some blue, some little, some big!  Over 200 all together to have enough to make 12 pillows.  Ya know - that would be enough to make a whole quilt. Wonder if the girls wanna do a quilting bee!!!   Um - probably NOT!

After about an hour and a half of sewing - we came up to have cake and celebrate Ingrid and Donna's mutual birthday - a week early - but what better way than to share something yummy with friends! We'll finish the MWPillows another time.  It's nice to spread out work, and community service with food and cake!
