For those that are here, what are your plans for today / this evening?
I have shrimp and chicken marinating, going to make skewers on the grill and some yukon gold steak fries from potatoes out of the garden and maybe some mashed squash.
FI is working til 7 then we have some friends coming over for dinner and probably heading to the farm for fireworks.
Let's see - I woke up and continued my marathon of watching Vampire Diaries on Netflix. I'm a sucker for crappy teenage melodrama. After that, H and I went to the lumber mill to check out their molding selection and I left with a 50 page book of molding porn to pick my new window casings from. I worked on the mud room and got the cap on the bead board, so all that's left to do is paint trim (yay). I'm also working on spray painting our patio set and it's finally close to done. I'm feeling pretty productive actually.
Now I'm back to watching Vampire Diaries. Tonight we're BBQing lobster, scallops and shrimp that I bought yesterday at the grocery store's going out of business sale. I spent $150 (total, not just on the seafood) but saved $111 because everything was so discounted. It was awesome.
Just hanging out! We were going to go back to the lake or the waterpark but it's so damn hot that doesn't even sound appealing. I also don't want to bake the baby.
There was a fun city party in my hometown but we stayed home because of the cows. It's just too hot and someone had to check on them.
We grilled steak, onion potatoes and veggies for lunch. We've been boozing it up since noon...in moderation.
I'm working on an appetizer dinner now (Shrimp, caprese salad, salsa dip, mozz sticks and whatever I want).
