Happy Monday! How was your weekend?
G'Monday, Nesties! Did everyone have a good weekend?
I'll tell ya, the weather here in MD was positively fall-like and gorgeous, even though it rained! It really has me getting the fall itch :-) Accordingly, Hubs and I hung out all day Saturday, which was a rare treat, with his work schedule and all, and spent the afternoon at Ravens Training Camp - woo hoo!
Then yesterday I was able to get more TY notes done, and make a nice old traditional grilled steak, baked potato, with salad and hot bread dinner...all in all, not a bad weekend at all...what about you gals??

Tales From a Kitchen Misfit

We had a great weekend! We went to a party at a friend's Sat pm. Sat am I spent making deviled eggs (turned out great!) and choc cupcakes (also great!) and did a load of laundry, and worked out again. It felt like a very productive day.
Sunday we just relaxed/recovered from Saturday's party and watched tv and movies, then went out to dinner at a newer mexican restaurant. Esp with the rain it was a perfect way to spend the day together. :-)
April 2010 Siggy Challenge: Next Vacation Destination
Lisa...I always have such a hard time making deviled eggs! I don't really eat them either. I got an egg plate as part of our fiestaware and I always want to make them for parties...I just always have a hard time peeling them without tearing chunks! LOL
Our weekend was good! Friday night we researched computers. Saturday we hung around the house and then went to our friend's for a pool party! fun!
Then Sunday I made BBQ pasta salad for a family picnic/gtg at MIL's. Then we went grocery shopping. Then home to watch the finale of food network star!
Good weekend here too. On summer Fridays I get off work early and I was in the mood to cook, so I greeted DH with brownies and homemade mac and cheese when he got home from work - neither of which I have made before. My goodness homemade mac and cheese is good, definitely need to add that to the rotation.
Saturday was one of the most fun days I've had in a while. The Phillies were playing the Mets in NY, so along with a couple of other Phillies fans we're friends with, we did this organized event for the game run by a Phily organization. It involved a 2 1/2 hour booze cruise along the East River, which took us to Citi Field. The boat ride was awesome, we had unlimited beers and good food, and it was fun hanging out with 300 other Philly fans. The only issue was that this one idiot decided it would be funny to jump overboard into the disgusting river (apparently his friend bet him $100 to do it). Our boat pretty much stopped, and the NYPD/FDNY sent like 7 fire trucks, a few ambulances, a bunch of police cars, and 3 police boats to rescue this moron. After that they stopped serving beer
Oh and the game was great too - the Phils won, yay! It was fun watching the game with a huge group of Phils fans. My sister and nephews saw me and DH on TV too!
TTC #1 since 4/10, Dx: MFI IVF planned for April/May
Weekend was productive!!! We got a lot of our yard work done, and even had time for a date night on Saturday. We got a quick dinner then to a 6:00 showing of Toy Story 3 - total amazingness!
After that we came home and watched Pre-Season Lions vs Steelers football (my 2 home teams). My cousin was at the game, and it was storming so they had to call the game & didn't start it back up for almost an hour. The Lions lost. 
I managed to get all my errands done yesterday in 2 hours....unfortunately I had Mike locked out of the house all that time, and it was like, 95 and muggy out. He left his keys in my car after our 2nd trip to Lowe's, which I dropped him off to finish our white rocks and took off to do my errands. Not thinking that a) his keys were in my car and b) we locked the doors to go to Lowe's. I noticed them, but more than halfway through my errands. Right as I was getting home he was getting ready to climb through the window. I don't know why he didn't go next door.
This is were the weekend kinda went down hill. It was a little after 10:30 Saturday night when we left my parents' house. DH drained the cooler, put that in the back seat and came back inside to help me with the puppy and our other stuff. We get in the car, I placed a blue towel on my legs so that the puppy had something soft to lay on. Well, he kept jumping and would not settle down. We made it down the street when I realized the puppy and I were both covered in fireants (I was lucky and only had about a dozen bites, poor puppy on the other hand had much more). It was after midnight when we got home. The puppy was sick from the pain, cold water from the hose, and then being held in a towel outside in 80 degree temps. We both were drugged on Benadryl all day Sunday....
So hoping this is a better week!

Sorry to hear about the fireants! Poor you and Poor Pup :-(
But otherwise, it sounds like it was a good weekend for most - here's to an even better week!!
Ours was great...I was home sick on Friday, so Fri evening consisted of take out and movies. Saturday we went to a wedding reception for one of DH's friend's who got married in Key West last month and had a great time. It was a back yard bbq and very laid back and fun...we ended up sitting a chatting till 12:30 am! Sunday it was yucky here, we went for breakfast and watched movies all day.

April Nesties March siggy challenge: Next Vacation, Anguilla!!
My weeked was good. Friday I had my final for my summer class (one more class down!) and then DH took me out to dinner afterwards to celebrate.
DH had to work from home all weekend, and I just wanted to relax so I slept in late watched a couple of movies and ran some errands. Nothing too exciting
