Hello Delco RRC |
"There is no glory in training, but there is no glory without training." - Unknown
With this quote in mind: Training? Define training. I call it running for fun with friends. If you want to call it training, come on out and we'll help you train to meet your goals. We'll have fun just the same. Isn't that what its all about? Come out to a Fun Run, we like to have fun...I mean train. |

Good Eats |
Roasted Potato Salad with Balsamic-Bacon Vinaigrette
3 pounds baby red potatoes, cut in half
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup minced garlic
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
8 ounces bacon
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup olive oil
1 large red onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 bunch parsley, minced
5 hard boiled eggs, roughly chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Toss halved potatoes with 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup garlic, and seafood seasoning. Place in a single layer onto baking sheets and bake in preheated oven until tender and golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium heat until evenly browned and crispy. Pour off bacon grease and reserve. Allow the bacon slices to cool, then crumble and set aside. Whisk together balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Pour in the oil in a slow, steady stream while whisking vigorously to make a vinaigrette. Toss the roasted potatoes together with the vinaigrette and reserved bacon grease. Fold in red onion, parsley, and eggs. Allow to stand at room temperature 20 minutes before serving. |
Graduation Party Invite - June 26th |
From Dawn Patterson
Dawn is hosting and everyone is invited to a triple graduation party....Shawn's graduating from Springfield High School and Steve and Jen are graduating from ETR. This is also the day of her annual Block Party. Last year was such a blast that the trampoline didn't survive the day. Moonbounces, waterslides and other games will be there for your entertainment.
I hope everyone can make it.
