So – we went up to the Watchung Reservation for the annual plant festival… I couldn’t  have asked for a more beautiful day!!
This year I have:
(2) Ramapos
(2) Rutgers Tomatoes
(3) Eggplant Plants
(3) Green Peppers
& A LOT of Basil that I started from seeds….

- By the time we got to the festival (oh wait…. that’s right we were second in line to wait to get in – my father insisted that we get there at 11:00 – even though they opened at 12.) So yeah, by the time we ENTERED the festival it was a mad rush to the tomato plants!!! I have never seen anything like it in my life.Oh – and they sold out of cucumber plants… ugh – I guess I have to get those from home depot :)

So now – It’s time to plant!
((Wish me Luck))

Weddings…

- Make me put on a dress.
- Make me cry.
- Make me think about Love. Faith. New Beginnings.
- Make me think about how special my day was.
- Make me dance my ASS off – even on a healing ankle.
- Make me do the electric slide.
- Make me drink more than I should.
- Make me wish Danny & Melissa the best of luck!

(I love you guys… Always Remember the Moments)

WTF is for Dinner?


I think I ask my husband this question..

Every.

Day.

But – in my defense I told him that i was not a domesticated woman when he met me – and he STILL married me – so that’s his fault.
The thing is – I can actually cook very well… I get it from my Mommy :)
I just don’t CHOOSE to do it. Is that wrong??
Ugh – and to make matters worse – my mother has been cooking these outrageously tasty things lately and I am being TOLD that i MUST learn these new meals..
For example – My mother was determined to make a batch of ox-tails – just like Grama used to make…AND well (I love you G-Money..) THEY WERE BETTER!!!!!!!!!
We ate that shit so fast that I damn near bit my tongue off. (Just another thing to add to my list of “good luck” these days)
Ugh.
So now I need to start cooking – like REAL meals…
Who the hell has time for that?? i can see if i was working from home or something – then ok…. I would have a pot of ham hocks simmering with some collard greens – or even go all out and put a roast in the oven.. (maybe)

But after working all damn day – and then finally get the chance to sit on the sofa..
..in the house that i pay for by going to work all damn day..
..and then start working on the stuff that i REALLY want to work on..

- who feels like slaving in the kitchen???

Now – don’t get me wrong.. I will toss it up here and there – and I KNOW that no one has ANYTHING on my cornbread – but apparently I should be “tossing it up” more often…

What the hell am i going to do when we have kids?
