Okay, maybe silly, but I was THRILLED to finally meet two
Deaf men!!! Matt and I had a great
time yakking with both of them.
They were up from California working in a fish processing plant in
Seward. The one young man was
hopeful; it was possible he’d be promoted to area supervisor. (Maybe we will see him again when we return.) I had an appointment, so we weren’t
able to yak for long…I really missed the ISD students that day! (OH, and today, we finally realized
that one of the LDS missionaries, who volunteers at the food bank, is fluent in
ASL!!! His younger sister is
Deaf. Again, the opportunity to
yak was short, but it was satisfying.)
It amazes me how connected I feel when I am signing with people. Maybe, because it is such a small
community, we more readily value each other. I don’t know why, but I know I was thrilled and appreciated
having the time to yak-a-bit.
As for the other unique event, only those of you who know me
well will understand how improbable...I made Quiche Lorraine!!! Yes, yes, I did! Okay, Shirley, the cook at the Senior
Center, had to tell me each step to take, but I was able to follow her
directions and make something pretty dang tasty! (Or at least I think it
was. It had bacon, and so was off-limits
for me.) Looks delicious, doesn’t
it?! Lie, if you don’t agree. SMILES!

Should have used the fake bacon so YOU could have ate it. By the way it looks delicious!
