My microwave just made an unusual noise and shut itself off. That's new. I think the pot roast is probably done, anyway...

My microwave will sometimes shut off early when it senses what I'm heating is done. Usually it's right.

Really? Neat. Maybe it's a feature I never knew I had.

And I still have a bunch of raw kale and that second goose egg to figure out how I want to eat.

Sautee the kale in butter/garlic/lemon, serve poached goose egg on it. Voila! You just need something like quinoa to make it a some fancy spa biz.

I was already considering that! Without the quinoa. I don't need no stinking grains.

Are you getting it delivered? I am confident that either the delivery people or the installation people (if they are different people, if that's all the same person I am more confident) will bring it upstairs for you.

Yes, it's being delivered, and the guy is bringing it up the stairs on a dolly. The last time someone did that (washer and dryer delivery) they messed up the floor and I have a weak floorboard at the top of the stairs now. I'm bracing for this delivery to turn into a broken-floor disaster. Because there's money in my savings account, and the Universe will not let that go on!

Ah. Well, I hope it goes better than you expect.

Microwave has not healed itself overnight. Fortunately I think I have a spare out in the shed. And meanwhile, frittata reheats in the toaster oven just fine.

Timelies all.

I had a great weekend which included a fantastic wedding. The bride has a literature degree and the groom is a sports fanatic. The bride doesn't like traditional weddings and would have happily eloped, but her family insisted on putting on something more traditional. So, she made it her own.

• The centerpieces were small stacks of books that had been given white dust covers and wrapped together with a wide ribbon.
  
• The wedding party came down the aisle to the theme from Friends (a different version, though).
  
• The officiant was a friend of the bride and groom.
  
• His discussion of love, during the ceremony included many, many sports and literature references (from Shakespeare to winning the game, from the Harry Potter to hitting a home rum and so much more).
  
• The bride and groom wrote their own vows that were full of humor and spoke to their specific relationship.
  
• When exchanging rings, the officiant talked about how the ring is a perfect circle like a basketball hoop or the One Ring.
  
• Dinner was catered by Qdoba.
  
• The bride/father, groom/mother dance was to You'll be in my Heart from Tarzan
  
• The wedding party chose a song for the happy couple - Dark Lord Funk You Up.
  
• The last song of the night was Bohemian Rhapsody which became a very loud sing along.

• Oh and right before presenting the married couple to us all, the officiant pulled out a flask and a couple of shot glasses, pouring the bride and groom a shot (of Crown) for them to toast their marriage in memory of how they first met.

Sounds like an awesome wedding!
