Little Hamburgers

It seems like I always talk about food. Wiley and I brainstormed yesterday for future meals and came up with the idea of little burgers. Turkey burgers to be specific. We combined ground turkey meat with Wortchestshire sauce, an egg, bread crumbs cooked bacon and a little honey. Then I sauteed some little onions (little onions = < half a big onion cut up in to small pieces) and cooked some corn bread. I made little cornbread loaves that we cut up and put the tiny patties on. Needless to say we were successful at cooking a good dinner. Wiley found a new "last meal".

The other topic of conversation is grad school. I go to school every day and do 6th and 8th grade level math. Last year I realized I missed being a student myself and wanted a little mental challenge. When the opportunity arose early August for me to apply to a graduate program through UH for a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction I prayed and then applied.

Wiley found out that he was accepted into the grad program at HBU for a masters in psychology the Thursday before classes began. In a similar fashion I heard that I have been accepted into this teacher's program last Thursday and class begins tomorrow (Tuesday). Funny similarity.

Either way, I will begin taking a math class for teachers at HCC Spring Branch every Tuesday night. I'm excited about it even though it may add a number of assignments to my plate. In today's official and more detailed email from my UH contact I learned that the textbook for this course is one I used at A&M during methods. The nice thing is that I liked it then and that I still have it now. Hopefully that fact that it's one edition old will not cause a problem. It will save me over $100 if I can use the edition I already have.

The Parkmans are officially both is Grad school at Houston schools. Will we graduate? Yes. Soon? No. =)
