Cute boots!
I am posting from my wii!
What? You can do that? Last time I tried to use my Wii it refused to read any discs, I doubt I would be able to get it to post for me.
I filled out the replacement extra census survey that they sent because I procrastinated filling out the first one I got for so long. I got to skip a lot because I haven't worked in so long, but had to fill out stuff that I skipped last time (I am almost positive my address was randomly selected for the follow-up survey back in 2000/2001 also - the government is following me!). And I couldn't check that I was widowed in the last 12 MONTHS (that's how it's printed in the question) because it's been 13 months. That feels weird. I did write it in off to the side just because.
This tastes like summer: [link]
My next CSA delivery has several items that I am pretty sure I don't get, so they will substitute something. Mystery! Usually I can start planning out how I'm going to eat everything up ahead of time. I am eager to see what I get.
Also? My new purple sink is out on Brian's porch RIGHT NOW! It's got the original fixtures! We've got to get it to my house soon! SO EXCITED!
I basically did this with my peas and sugar snap peas last week:

Except no asparagus and regular whole wheat couscous.
It was delicious!
Not sure what I'm doing with the peas this week though.
I made a similar thing with rice for lunch today, though I used frozen peas. Still yum. In fact, I may make it again for dinner while I have the changes I want to make to the recipe in mind.
Purple sink!
Why did I agree to have a rummage sale next weekend??? I'm going to enjoy getting rid of stuff and getting money but I'm neck deep right now and rethinking the plausibility of this plan.
I also have an Oster blender that works well for margaritas.
I am not getting housework done! Day fail!
Oh well.
I find that Helsing's Fire quite tempting. May need to buy it.
Oooooh. I randomly had a blender with a heating element years ago and loved it, and have been idly looking for another ever since I lost that one.
I have to say that for smoothies (I make them with frozen fruit, not ice) and making sauces, I vastly prefer a stick blender. I am so much more likely to actually clean t up, and not leave it! I have a cuisinart one that has a little food processor attachment, and came with a smoothie cup. It also has a whisk, which I imagine would come in handy if you made a lot of meringues or whipped cream, but I pretty much am only whipping for scrambled egges, so I use a fork.
