celebratin' our brothas of another color....

My adorable roommie Ashlee, gansta-style!
It was even educational!
Thugs, Dallin and Mike
livin' large wit my grill....
the original gangstas....
We had some special visitors straight off the boat to teach us about Black History Month.
The jungle fever could no longer be surpressed....

Whether is was "Linger Longer", "Break the Fast", or "Salsa Social"...if any of you have been in a single's ward in your life you are familiar with a gathering after church where everyone brings food, potluck style. Well, last month in ward council the guy I was sitting next too suggested that we have a "Martin Luther Kinger Longer" in celebration of Black History Month. And that we did....SOUL food style!!




Menu:


Ribs


Fried Chicken


Jumbalaya


Watermelon


Mac and Cheese


Cheesy Grits


HushPuppies


Creamed Corn


Cobbler


And other "black" desserts (brownies, chocolate cookies)


and of course, Kool-Aid




We did pretty good for a few white folks! The food was SO good! And the entertainment was even better!!

That looks like a great activity! And I think we managed to get the same haircut.... Great minds think alike!
