News Flash... I cooked dinner tonight!


I cooked dinner tonight! For those of you who know my "daily" life you realize that me cooking dinner is indeed a rarity. I am fully aware that the previous statement is completely pathetic and puts me in the bad Mama category, but it is what it is. Tonight was however- the exception. I left work with a million things unfinished at the respectable hour of 4 p.m. That is in itself an accomplishment. I made baked ziti and some garlic bread. No salad because I forgot to pick any up at High Point Grocery. Anyone ever go to High Point? Little grocery, super nice people, not a huge selection but you can get in and out quick. One of my favorite gift shops- Gild the Lily is right next door & this evening I was able to stop in & check things out. I NEVER get to go to this store because it closes at 5 p.m. but I'm glad I did because I was able to find the cutest b-day presents for my cousin's kiddos Mia & Alex. I'm only MONTHS late getting Alex his b-day present but he's too young to notice, thank goodness. Dinner was good, everyone has had a bath and are in the bed. John-Rob starts school in the a.m. and he's still not asleep- he's calling me AGAIN! Wish us luck- he'll probably get a tardy slip on his first day!

Proud of you for cooking dinner! Dont' worry about a tardy....my girl got writen up today for throwing stuff in the cafeteria. Good thing she has never seen animal house, and they didn't have mashed potatoes.
See you tomorrow!

Now that you have recovered from your intestinal "near death" experience, you need to post about it. You do a great job with descriptions!
