Happy Birthday, Debet Esse!
Yay, Deena!
Hec, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Tons of ~ma to her.
Mmm, gnocchi! Teppy, your brother sounds like a fantastic cook; I must drag TCG up to his restaurant sometime this Autumn.
vw and Nora, if you're really interested in learning how to make gnocchi, my grandfather could probably teach us.
There was a lot more I wanted to comment on, but I didn't keep notes as I was catching up little by little on my cell.
Mom and I went outlet shopping today. I bought a few tops but no botttoms, because apparently if you are over a size 6, you're just out of luck. I'm really going to miss Thursdays shopping with Mom when her school year starts up again.
Omnis, the orange water cooler is likely in the garage, which is blocked by the truck, which is locked. The keys are in the house. In any case, the orange cooler was never cleaned and therefore is possibly sentient and has wandered off on its own.
I am, however, home. I drove down to Burbank to take refuge with friend T. She helped me to load my groceries into her fridge...at which point we discovered that the frozen blueberries I'd bought were 1.) no longer frozen, 2.) completely soaking the bottom of one of the paper bags and everything in it, and 3.) dripping on her floor. Thank the gods she has hardwood floors.
Anyway, about thirty minutes later my landlady called to say that she was home, so I loaded everything back up and drove back. I think most of the groceries survived. I am having a once-frizen TJ's pizza tonight, though, because it had completely thawed and would likely not be very appetizing if I re-froze it.
Thunk.
I'm glad you were able to get in the house Kristin and the groceries mostly survived.
Kristin, I'm glad there wasn't much spoilage. Now I know why people market stuff like this and this.
I always worry about lockouts but my neighbor across the street has a key for dog-sitting and I have at least two friends here in town with spare keys to the house that I could call in a pinch.
I jogged a mile in 15:50 tonight! I'm getting closer to my goal.
That reminds me that I got the shoes that Bobbi sent and, lo, they are awesome. I need to take pictures of my feet in them after I get a pedi this weekend.
Waiting for the pics. Glad they arrived safely and that you agree on their awesomeness.
The keys to our current apartment were made so they can't be duplicated. We have two copies of them one set for me and one set for TCG. It freaks me out a bit that I can't leave a set with someone local, especially since TCG works over an hour away from here. Hopefully my landlords are good about responding to being locked out, because when it comes to losing stuff or locking myself out of places, I'm the do that girl.
lisah, shortly insent to profile addy.
Sorry you got locked out, Kristin. In July I thought I locked my keys in my car, called AAA, had them break in, looked for the keys, and found I had them in my backpack the whole time, just sunk all the way at the bottom. Oops!
yay house!
ma~~~~~ for karen
and other stuff. I might have to find the fernet.
boo for lock outs.
Was it hear that some one said H & M had good prices for basics? My sister that is stationed in Japan is in the area - and thinks she needs to go clothes shopping but isn't sure for what
