Oh and Sarah, there's really no more convincing me left to do. I'm pretty sure the move back to VA next summer is gonna happen.

Dude, didn't you see the weather this past weekend??? Record temps!! AND our AC went out. Stay north, Man, Stay north!!!!

When my DH retires from the Navy, we are planning somewhere cold. I would much rather deal with cold than hot, humid weather. It is much easier to bundle up than to strip down. No one wants to see this naked!!!:eek:

It's no better in Jersey, honestly. I'm used to the VA summers. With the exception of this year, I've lived in VA and NC since 1994.
 
I think it's just HOT everywhere. My family is in Ohio and Chicago- both had mid-90s all last week until the fronts moved through to cool them off. I'm in NC- just 2 hrs from VA Beach...it was 103 yesterday, and then we lost power last night for 4 hrs. Uggh! (lightning sparked fire at a substation)
 
Bobbi-

Our AC went out last Tuesday after a bad thunder storm, the homeowners live in Italy, so it took a while to make arrangements to get someone out to do an estimate, and contact them. They are supposed to come out tomorrow to fix it. The AC company did lone us 3 huge window units to help us cope with the heat, but that wasn't until Saturday afternoon. We all camped out on the floor of the coolest room in the house Friday night, especially after I took my digital thermometer (PC of course) upstairs and it was 85 degrees at 10 pm!! That was inside.
 
Thank the Lord our AC is working. But, my horror (well, not that bad really), is that we started Vacation Bible School yesterday - outside; after the lightening/thunder/rain storm. Isn't God wonderful to have that all happen and be over in time to cool things down but not cancel the event? Anyway, it was still hot, and I was lugging around hay bales, a saddle, and lots of other set-up. All that with two t-shirts on (didn't get my VBS shirt until I arrived, and nowhere to change, so over my other shirt it went and stayed). If only I really could melt!Shelly, what you said about it being easier to get warm than to cool off is exactly what I say!! Warming up can be more fun, too (if done correctly).

I would guess that gefilte fish is an acquired taste. I've been eatting it since I was a wee-one, so I guess I acquired it early in life.

Yeah, our Mom didn't raise us in the Jewish traditions too much (though, we are all named after dead relatives:blushing:), and since she doesn't like fish, gefilte fish was definitely not ever part of our menu.

Creamed herring, though! Mmmm, when we all lived in the same state, that was a Thanksgiving staple.
 
Hey Keith! I finally made your pork skewers for dinner last night! Yum Yum Yum!

Of course, because I'm me, I had to change it just a teensy bit (not much at all) - I added a little oil to the marinade. Um, I also used up the end of my Jerk Rub - didn't know that was the end, until I needed it for a show tonight to make Nachos!:eek:

Then, for the skewers, I did pork, pineapple, orange pepper, and red onion. It was so so so so good! The pork was fork tender, and the pineapple and veggies were wonderfully carmelized - just like you said! Served it with a brown and wild rice pilaf.

I love to have recipes like this that make the whole family happy! DH wanted the leftovers for his lunch today, and yesterday during dinner, DS kept commenting about how much he liked the chicken. (I didn't correct him - if I'd told him it was really pork, he'd have stopped eating it.)

The marinade had oil in it originally. I used canola oil, white wine vinegar, and rub. What oil did you add?

I'm glad it was delicious!
