What a busy weekend! I'm still catching up!
I've got a few minutes to work on typing up a requested recipe post and update a few minor tidbits in the layout before my p'sgetti sauce is ready enough to start the noodles (you HAVE to let it simmer for a bit to enhance the flavors, even if it IS just from a jar and you only add a little sausage and spice . . . it just tastes better). At any rate, here's the short, short version:
Backstory: went to IKEA, bought lots of bookcases
This past week/weekend:
1. mostly assembled the new 80" bookcases for the studio supplies
2. organized stuff on most of them, observed that piles-o-crap in the apartment are shrinking!
3. rented a Ford F150 (with extended cab) and loaded it up with an entertainment center, 2 kids, their mom, and various over-weekend luggage, including "backyard" camping gear
4. drove through THREE tornado warnings, one of which was 5 miles away from us when it went off; was close enough to get small hail, delivered soggy entertainment center
5. spent the weekend visiting aunt/uncle, their 2 kids, a dog, 2 toads, a turtle, and numerous cats
6. toured downtown New Bern, NC. ate ice cream, bought yarn, saw ducks, ate pizza
7. took lots of photos, got schooled in mariokart, rediscovered bacon is really the best part of any meal (note to self: buy bacon), discovered cool new community pool
8. enjoyed having "grown-up" visits without having young cousins all over me all the time (note to self: take neice/nephew of same age for future visits)
9. promised to post best chocolate chip cookie recipe ever on blog to promote world peace and national unity . . .
