Dinner was a success! The steak was perfect and it was the first time I've seared it and then finished in the oven. And roasted cauliflower is the way to go.
Now I have to clean up.

It's a very yummy idea to steal.
Of course all that chewing is making my jaw hurt. I've been wearing my mouth guard at night, but I've been waking up clenching my teeth anyway and last night I forgot to put it on. I'm going to go take some Alieve and maybe try some heat. I hate TMJ.

And now I have to brag on my Nephew. He's so smart and cute for just turned 1!
Last month Mom taught him the sign for more (although he does his own version) and he's been really good if you ask him "do you want " he'll sign More so it's kinda a yes/more sign. And he'll sign more if he wants you to continue. while I was up there I taught him food. And he was getting good about signing Food and More. And he started saying Nana for banana and MA!MA!MA! sometimes when he signed more.
Mom has been signing Music, which she didn't think he'd get. And yesterday he signed it sponteaously and correctly. And today when she was reading/signing Snuggle Puppy he signed Music. And then more when she was done.
It was so cute to see his little brain working as he figured out food.

What a precious nephew you have, askye! And you are right, he is a smart little guy.
Well, our supper was an ultra thin crust frozen pizza to which we added red and green bell pepper, sliced tomato, leftover roast beef, baby bella mushrooms, pepperoncini, and more cheese. Teh yum. Also, I made salads, with pretty much the same veggies.

Oh. OH. OH!
Daniel just reminded me. We went to the fair today, the next county over. One of the food booths was hawking "Jurassic Corn Dogs".
It's just not as appetizing to me as they seem to think it should be.

I saw both Inglorious Bastards & GI Joe this weekend. GI Joe was far better flick. Shocked me.

Is teaching babies to sign a thing? I've been reading about various people doing this and thinking that their children have an unfortunate hearing issue that they're just not discussing. But there seem to be rather a lot. I hope everyone's kids' hearing is ok.
