They say, "Busy people can get more done!" Laurie Phillips, a TOG Consultant from New Albany, is living proof of that old wives tale! Laurie called today to tell me that their new baby boy, Pearce, was born on Friday! I'm thrilled for them - they have a beautiful family. Laurie's sister from Memphis was at the hospital on Saturday and mentioned she'll be needing some products soon. Laurie told her where to find her Catalogs in the car, asked her to talk to her friends and Laurie would place their order this week! From the hospital bed, Laurie's "working!"
That's pretty normal for Laurie though! When Marlee was born, Laurie emailed a recipe to me the day they came home from the hospital! Maybe she got hungry for some good food while she was in the hospital! Her pantry full of Taste of Gourmet can take care of that hunger!
God Bless your precious family Laurie!
I should have told you that on Thursday night, the night before delivering my 9lb1oz Pearce, I made Spinach Manicotti (ricotta, mozzerella,Parmesan, 1 egg, a spoonful of CHIMMI SAUCE and 1pkg SIMPLY SPINACH DIP MIX! - stuff it in some pasta and bake with tomato sauce) for my sweet hubby! I was hurting some (not in active labor yet) and I needed to get my mind off of it. Plus I knew it might be the last hot meal he got for a little while! He was impressed and it made so much we've been able to eat the leftovers now that we're home!

Now this is a woman who loves to cook and "takes care" of her family! Laurie's boys will be giving her hugs and kisses on Valentine's Day - She'll probably bake them a Mississiopi Mud Cake!
