Here is the link to the chicken tortilla soup recipe I served at the last Fort
Worth Book club:
http://www.recipezaar.com/The-Best-Chicken-Tortilla-Soup-85800
I made the following changes.
I substituted about 1/4 cup of diced tomatoes with a small can of rotel tomatoes
for added flavor.
After removing the bay leaves but before adding the chicken I used an immersion
blender to blend the ingredients to make it a thick sauce rather than a chunky
sauce.
Have a great holiday!

Hey ladies. I've "adopted" a soldier again. Well this time it is actually a sailor. Anyways he is career military and has 30 men and 10 women under his command. They are on an 8 month deployment and should return around the end of March. I'm sending 2 boxes of goodies tomorrow in time for Christmas, but wanted to put out a request to anyone attending the Holiday Tea this weekend.
If anyone has any Tom Clancy or Dungeon & Dragons (or the like) paperbacks, I'm told they would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone has movies or TV shows on DVD that they want to donate, that would also be appreciated. I'll be sending another care package at New Years.
I used to send these care packages and correspond with quite a few soldiers a few years ago. If anyone else is interested, the organization I re-signed up with is www.soldiersangels.org

Just wanted to let everyone planning to
attend the Holiday Tea know we will be having our BIG book sale again this
year. We do this to raise money for our group’s Dallas RWA hosted events
and covering the costs of visiting author’s meals when they visit.
These are all new books!
We have wrapped grab bundles of 4
paperbacks by genre, also bundles of 3 trade size of erotica(laundry) titles,
and ribbon wrapped only bundles of series sets. Everything is $5. So bring
cash... lots of cash... and small bills if you can... We can take checks but
occasionally forget to deposit them in a timely manner L.
I know everyone will have a great time
even though I won’t be there...sniff. Darn old friends who get married in
December anyway!
Ho Ho HO!

Hi. The Fort Worth Book club will not meet in December. Our next book club will
be Tuesday January 5th. Hope to see you there.
If you would like to join the book club, but Tuesday's don't work for you,
please e-mail me suggestions for other days.
Happy Holidays and I'll see you at the tea.

Dear friend, How are you doing recently? I found a good website last week: www.elssu.com. They do internationa business and they sell different kinds of electronic products. Such as laptops, digital cameras, phones, notebooks and so on. Their products are new and original and have 3 years international warranty, so we can fix the product in our own country for free. Now , the Cristmas day is coming,they are promoting their products. So the prices are very competitive. I am sure it will be a good choice for us. Greetings! q
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! I wasn't online at all yesterday, hence being a day late with this. I went to a friend's apartment and she and I planned a big party/feast for our singles group. We had about 17-20 people show up and we had SOOOOO much food! One turkey never even got cut until after all the eating was done so we could give some to everyone to take home. My fridge is stuffed with leftovers. it was a pot luck dinner, but between my friend Lezlie and I, we provided probably half the dinner. I didn't get home till almost midnight last night then it took me close to an hour to rearrange the fridge to fit everything in it. LOL
Today Lezlie and I were going to go running but she's not feeling well so was going to the minute clinic to get checked out. But we're going to McKinney this afternoon/evening for their annual Dickens Christmas. I was there a few years ago and it's GORGEOUS. So we're going to head over there instead. She's going to come to my place tomorrow and we're going to go running, if she's up to it, in a park if she's up to it. Otherwise we'll go power walk instead.
And as per usual, this weekend is when I start Christmas decorating so I can enjoy it before I go home to PA. So I have the Christmas music playing and I'm getting a little cleaning done and starting to decorate.
Wishing everyone a very happy Thanksgiving Day…may the
turkey be delicious and the leftovers stretch the feelings of joy. Okay, so now
you know, I like the leftovers best!
To all my friends, I’m thankful I know you and for the
joy and little pleasures you bring me every day! Here’s to the great
friends I’ve made over the years in the DFW Tea Group!

Unfortunately, I can't make this year. I have some things I have to take care of that weekend for mom since Dad's passing. I'm so sorry I'm going to miss it!
Hope you all have a terrific time :)
