Operation use stuff up continues - last night finished off some olive oil (there is still more), a bottle of vitamins (there is still more), today I made coffee at home instead of buying out, I have rice on the stove now, and the plan is to bake pumpkin muffins and choc chip cookies, also cook up a green bean and pea casserole, some beans, and some fish from the freezer. Should probably also make another round of slaw.
The freezer is getting pretty empty. I need to make banana muffins next week and then it will be only about 1/4 full.
I need to buy some chicken from the store so I can use up some more marinades (who knew I had so many). I found some crisco, I guess I should use that instead of butter in some of my baking, I can use the butter on toast and veggies and so many more ways.
sorry to kill the thread with my ocd.
I have to share this - mac and his friend are playing with legos and figures, they have made up a story with good guys and bad guys are making decisions on how the story develops, not always agreeing, but working it out - they are having dialogue and multiple players - they have been at for over 30 minutes. I know that sounds like normal kid play, but mac has been unable to sustain play like this on his own with a peer until very recently. For example, when we play, I often have to supply all the dialogue and mac will just make sound effects or observe. Other times, he will get into a fight with a playmate with 5-10 minutes if there is any disagreement on how the story develops.
and yes, I am tearing up.
And not one 'on the rocks' joke? It's like they're not even trying.
awwwwwww--go Mac and msbelle!
Thanks Zenkitty. Now my daughter wants a set of Bronte dolls of her own! I had to break it to her that they don't really sell the dolls, but that she could still read the books.
That's wonderful msbelle.
Hey, I got the link from Shir. I accept no responsibility. Besides, I want them too.

I'm actually more amused than anything at this point.
I'm currently sitting on the wall of my patio, listening to the local (small) high school band play across the street at the car wash. They even have a flag corp of 4. Nice and random.
