Re: Hi..
I've been separating Christmas/misc stuff with my ex all day, so that was fun. Now I'm contemplating dinner. I think it will be taco night. I love taco night.
Oh, and I ordered a breadbox off ebay and it finally got here and it's broken and the color is all different and I am so sad because I have been waiting for it to get here. Raaaarrr.

HI!
Hows your haircolor??
Are you fully in love yet?
Did you consider the Brow recommendations?
THAT SUCKS - there's NOTHING worse thean the division on Christmas ornaments.
I just went through them and shipped his. That's not something one wants to do "together" .. ugh. :0( I hope you had liquor!~
A bread box you say. I have been contemplating a bread box... what does yours look like? I saw a SS one in target and thought to buy it - but did not.
I still have 15 minutes of work left, so I'm finishing stuff up so I can leave.
I had to drink hot chocolate today because it's so cold at my desk. I can't wait for the shock when I go outside into the 90 degree heat.
I also have thunder tummy right now, and when I went to the bathroom all the stalls were full. So I had to walk to the other side of the building to the other bathroom and the stupid janitor had it closed for cleaning! While I waited for him to finish, a coworker chatted with me. She had no idea that if I was to make one false move, a poosplosion would take us both out.

roger that.
It's like like one of those things in a new relationship you don't find out until it happens - like when you put a pinky in your lovers ass just before climax.
It either goes over .. or not.
I'm waiting for my crockpot pulled pork to finish. And my H to get home (he's stuck in rain-related traffic).

the WB is a subpar tv channel. you hurt with you words.
i am parenting alone, spilled breastmilk all over my office and myself and have a suddenly non sleeping 3 month old.
i am also having flashbacks of learning about Bea Arthur's death and it's affecting me deeply.
I love th idea of pulled pork - because when I make gravy I add a pork chop and the delightful way it falls aprat makes my tummy sing with glee... but anytime I've had it, I HATE the taste of BBQ sauce it's drenched in.
Is that the only way to do pulled pork? With like - Ole Yeller BBQ sauce?
How do you do it?
I like food. You can talk to me about food all the live long day.
on the bright side.... the breast milk now is nothing to what it will be in 3 months, on the first day they decide to turn up the furnace and the BM really starts cooking in the fibers of the carpet in your office. :0)
also - that kid is effing CUTE... so at least there is that.
I like it a lot! I have considered the brow suggestions but have not done it yet because I am lazy. Sometimes I do it myself and it looks okay but that's risky.
Ornament separation wasn't TOO bad. Most of them were mine anyway. We initially said we'd do it at Christmastime but wires got crossed and here we are. I guess it's better we got it over with.
Pro tip: NEVER get the pulled pork sandwich at Chili's. It's like ... bacon bits in a tiny bit of bbq sauce. Awful.

Well. REAL pulled pork (North Carolina-style) is done with vinegar-based sauce. It's my preferred way of doing it. We make this ressypee: http://www.crumblycookie.net/2008/05/30/crockpot-pulled-pork/
I let it go 8 hours on low, drained the fat and shredded it, then put it back in on low for 1 hour with sauce. But I didn't make the vinegar sauce this time, I used Stubb's Spicy BBQ sauce.
I'm a sucker for pulled pork.

can you give me a little detail on that? (approx. proportions - etc. and also - cut of pork I'm supposed to use..) I'd like to try it.
I make an awesome pork caciattore in the CP, but that's obviously way different.

:0( .. or :0) .. I don't know. I want to have the right facial expression. If you were here, I'd give you some of my wine either way. It really is my answer to most things..
You complimented my baby, so you can get anything you want. I am shallow like that.

I use a tenderloin instead of a roast. I usually use two actually in order to get 3 pounds.
It's super easy. You can do either egg noodles or rice as the recipe calls for.

Where were you with this pearl of wisdom before this past Saturday? I fell into the trap of that sandwich, and it was not g to the r-o-s-s. But I really can't get it up for chili's anyway, so I wasn't terribly surprised at my level of disappointment in that meal
thanks you guys - I have a plethora (3 amigos .. anyone.. anyone?!) of pulled pork inspiration now! Yay - I will review and report back!!!
I'm going down South to visit some friends this weekend - I hear we're having a pig roast.
I've seen pictures from thier last pig roast... it's disturbing to say the least.
I am a carnivore for sure... but I like to pretend my meat grows on a bush somewhere in idaho. (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
I am concerned how my 3.1/2 yo is going to deal with the emotional shock of a pig on a s[pit.
You and me both girl. I like all meat shredded or ground. as little like an animal part as possible.

I want to eat pulled pork now. Jerks. I will have to settle for a cupcake.
My niece told me I need to open a shop to sell cupcakes and purses, because I make the best cupcakes ever, and I may as well sell those purses I already made. She is a wise child.
Yesterday we went out to dinner. Two things happened.
1. There was a kid at the table next to us that was super messed up and weird. He was maybe 5. Will waved at him and said "Hi!" when they sat down. The boy screamed "STOP LOOKING AT ME, IT'S NOT FUNNY!" in response. Then later he stood up and came up to Evie's car seat and leaned in and shouted, "SHUT UP BABY!" Not that a kid should ever do that, but Evie was fast asleep and making no noise. I turned to his mom and she was all, "Oh, I'm sorry! Come back here, let's eat dinner." Then at one point she was asking him, "Are you a good boy? Are you a good boy?" and he was all "NO!!!" It was weird. Then he came up and started grabbing at the strap to tighten the car seat strap and I was all, "Hey, don't touch my baby." Then when we left, Will said, "Bye little boy!" and the kid screamed something unintelligible at Will. I think that kid had some major issues.
2. It's been hot here, and we've had lots of fans running. While we were out the door to Will's bedroom blew closed. And Gracie was in there. And we were gone for awhile. And she peed in his bed. We didn't realize this until Will went to lay down and came back out and told us he needed to sleep in our bed. I went to put him back in his bed and realized what happened. Luckily we had a waterproof mattress pad so the mattress is fine, but she got a lot of his stuffed animals too. Ugh.
