Who gets the reference?
Saturday:
– coffee/knitting in the “nest” in my home office
[My “nest” is a loveseat of which each side is an independent recliner, and has lived in my home office since we got it, many moons ago. On top of it reside a couple of neck pillows and a comforter, so I can be comfies there.]
– Starbucks
[S/F Mocha w/ whip for the drive to the Westside.]
– Lunch @ Mom’s
– Dad’s old (current) place
– Dad’s new place
[Lots of emotions happening with these stops – See “What Looked Like ‘Better” Turned Out to be PMS and a Full Moon.”]
[Stopped at this place on the spur of the moment, thinking I’d pick up a cupcake or two (emotional eating, I know, it was a rough day). When I got there I thought I’m headed through Burbank anyway on my way home which means stopping at Dad’s Donuts because their chocolate cream donut makes my toes curl in a good way – no exaggeration – “Don’t Bother Me, I’m Eating!”
So I happened to see their Frosted Cupcakery’s Hi-Tops and figured I’d get two of those (the seem like two- or three-biters, so they’d be just a nice little taste for Hubby and me). I got a white chocolate salted caramel and a chocolate peppermint (didn’t see this flavor on their website, so I’m guessing it’s a seasonal deal).]
– Sit N Stitch
– Unwind
– Bed Bath & Beyond
[I had stopped for a salad spinner – I was gonna get one even though Mom said I could have hers since she never uses it – but the line was too long and I was getting tired. This had been a pretty big day already.]
– Home
Sunday:
– collapse
[Yeah, I got through my Saturday and I was done. So, I think I did the following things, not necessarily in this order:
– coffee
– reading
– watching tv
– knitting
– napping
After napping, Hubby told me he had placed an order at the Container Store of a few more bits for our ongoing garage remodel project and they had texted him it was ready for pickup – I could come with him to get it or stay home, whatever I wanted. I decided to go, so . . .]
– Starbucks: coffee for the road
– Container Store: picking up the stuff he’d ordered
[He called them as we pulled up outside, they brought it out and loaded it up – we didn’t even have to get out of the truck – Love That!]
– Maria’s Italian Kitchen: Dinner
[We had previously eaten there a couple months ago, on the way back from one of our trips to Oak Glen (See “SNL (1975-1980, 1985-Present): October 27-28, 2012.”), we didn’t have one near us, we were driving by one and it was almost dinner time – so I asked Hubby if he wanted to eat before we headed home – we did.]
– Home: hanging out while Hubby installed garage bits
Monday:
– 9:00am-1:00pm work
[Yeah, I decided to just stick this in here ‘cuz it’s a half day in what otherwise woulda been another 4-day weekend, and I didn’t wanna make a whole new separate post for it and well, it’s just here – so there.]
– H&M
[My previous stash of Gap t-shirts is starting to wear out, and I’ve recently fallen in love with H&M’s L.O.G.G. brand t-shirts (they’re cheaper than Gap too) ‘cuz they’re So Soft they’re comfortable directly on my sore nipple, and that’s seriously saying something – SCORE! So I went and got myself some to replace the ones that are wearing out.]
– Target
[Stopped by a Target to try to pick up a skirt in my size that Hubby had gotten me, but he had brought home a size too small (yep, if you’re gonna err, that’s the direction to do it!), but couldn’t find it in the size I wanted. :-(]
– Nap @ Home
[For the rest of today and my overnight, please see “Up at Midnight.”]
Tuesday:
– watch replay of Rose Parade in bed w/ Hubby
– brunch cooked by Hubby
[Yep, food, it’s a thing. Brunch, it’s a thing. Hubby says what do I want to eat. I point him toward some pre-made cheesy hashbrowns I’d bought. He says how do you want your eggs. I say however you want to cook them. Breffast/Brunch:
– Hillshire Farms Cheddarwurst, fried
– pre-made cheesy hashbrowns, nuked
– scrambled eggs with organic red onions, organic thyme, organic rosemary (all from Abundant Harvest Organics – See “I’ve Been Eating More Dirt Lately – Organic Produce Delivery 12-22-12.”), grape tomatoes and crumbled goat cheese! Yum!
– emptied dishwasher
– loaded dishwasher
– washed dishes
– ran dishwasher
– watched college football on TV with Hubby
– emptied dishwasher
– made The Palace Grill Rosemary-Buttermilk Muffins
– made roasted veggies
[Organic russet potatoes, organic sweet potatoes, organic butternut squash, some other kind of organic squash, all from Abundant Harvest Organics, drizzled with olive oil & organic rosemary (AHO).]
– nuked mac & cheese
[Added cubed beef tenderloin (crisped up in a pan), organic green onions (AHO), a dash of Half & Half and sprinkled with just a bit of shredded cheddar cheese and the last of the green onions.]
