Hi.

  • Hi. I saw The Artist today and bought a dress BUT NOT THE UGLY ONE.
    image
  • I really want to see The Artist. What did you think of it?

    I also went to the grocery store all by myself after the kids went to bed. I'm making this: http://smittenkitchen.com/2012/02/cheddar-beer-and-mustard-pull-apart-bread/

    and this: http://joythebaker.com/2012/01/mini-pretzel-dogs/ tomorrow. I'm so excited to eat them both. And I made marshmallows. I want them to dry so I can eat them.

  • We really liked it. It's charming and actually very interesting.

  • Sweet. We're having a date at some point next Friday to celebrate Lorne's birthday and him officially having his PhD.  I'm not sure what we're doing though. Maybe we'll go see it.

  • Hi. We're watching 50/50. It's a goooood weekend so far. 
  • Wendy's gettin' some.

    Twice! And a nap, yummy foods, some couch cuddling for movies and a great race. Add in potentially solidifying caterer and florist for the wedding and it's been a damn productive day.  

  • Yay Wendy! I'm so glad you're so happy.

  • Hi!

    We had a great day too. The weather was gorgeous so I did a ton of yard work while Dan entertained the kid. It was awesome. I love yard work. Then we went to a Blazer game, which Sean loved, and now I'm home eating chicken strips. I should find myself an adult beverage.

    I'm germinating some broccoli, cabbage, and parsley seeds to eventually transplant into my veggie garden. I'm like a kid, I probably look at them every 3-4 hours to see if I can see anything yet.

  • One of my FB friends recently posted, something to the effect of, "Just found out that my mom, who spent every Saturday in the garden, hates yard work." And her mom responded, "I had five girls, what do you expect me to do to get away from you?"

    SO maybe one day I'll "enjoy" yard work. I'd have toh ave a yard forist.

  • Haha. Kevin and I have talked about how his dad did yard work as an escape (and still does even though the kids are grown). I think it's universal.

    If I had 5 kids, I'd have to live on a real live farm to get enough time away. 

    My sister is fond of saying that she wants 4 kids. Or at least she was until she started residency and is all "holy crap when am I supposed to actually bear these 4 supposed children".

  • I am not drinking. Ethan projectile vomited all over his room. 2nd time ever. So gross. I picked cleaning up him. B cleans the room. 
  • Don't tell me residency is worse. DON"T TELL ME THAT.

    Though maybe it will be in Portland or Seattle, then it would b e less cscary.

    You made marshmallows?

    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz

    You made marshmallows?

    I did. I'm going to cut them and dip them in melted milk chocolate tomorrow. And maybe then put some toasted coconut on them. 

    It just tried several times to spell coconut right. Three glasses of wine and I can't spell. 

    image

  • I never considered the possibility that one could make their own marshmallows. Is it easy?

    Dipping them in chocolate sounds heavenly. Between that and watching something that involved smores earlier, I will be finding a way to get marshmallows into my life tomorrow.

  • I hear marshmallows are very easy, but I don't really like them unless they're in a combo with caramel and chocolate and maybe some nuts. They have to just be a side show, not the main attraction. Otherwise they just taste like gelatinous sugar to me.

  • I haven't made them before, bjut  it was pretty easy. Will heloped me with most of it (except for the part on the stove). I put some malted milk powder in with them, so the marshmallows will be malted and then with the milk chocolate and coconut it will be yummy. Marshmalow fluffis one one of my favorite things ever, so I'm apparenty okay with gelatinsous sugar goo.

    My sis is currently working 12-14 hour days, 6 days a week. But supposedly that's just for her first year. 

    Being a doctor is hard. Tell Lorne to be a dermatologist, it's way cushy. The residents at OHSU basically work 8-5, M-F.

  • Hello. I'm on the iPad so posting is a-noying. Mr M is working on some office space redesign thing. We're watching Supernatural. 

    Buddha looks awesome in the 50s dress. Well, really both dresses but I don't know how many opportunities she'd have to wear the second. Unless she's moonlighting as a bar wench.

    Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman

    There's an episode of Grey's Anatomy where all the surgeons stumble upon the dermatology department. They sit on the couches marveling at the dermatologists who are all well-rested, happy, and other them cucumber water and stuff.  Then, they all decide they like cutting into people and head back to surgery.
