Sunday Night Chit Chat - July 22, 2012

Our picture of the evening...my Blue Asters!  They have become my favorite flowers in my garden.

And the chit-chat with Carla, the sewing fiend!!:


Reading: Nothing right now.  I was even at the library yesterday! I am sure I will get back into reading...just not on my radar at the moment.

Watching: I have a few things on the DVR from the week....NY Med, Perception. 

Listening to: My Dad...I have my bluetooth in and I am posting at the same time.  Aren't I talented???

Cooking/Baking: Dinner was pork roast with cranberry-apple chutney (homemade!) in the crockpot.  And I finally made my chocolate zucchini muffins!  They probably needed to bake a minute or two longer, and needed more sugar.  But they aren't bad.  And I also made a dozen lemon-poppyseed muffins, per Bossy's request.  


Happy you accomplished today: I worked my butt off today.  I feel like I didn't get anything done, but I guess I did.  I am happy to have made the muffins, meal planned for the week, grocery shopped.  Two loads of laundry.  Dishes. And got a killer deal on something we had been talking about (75% off!)

Looking forward to next week:  My Boss is on vacation, so the office will be quiet(er), and I can get to some back burner projects.  I am taking Friday off to do some deep cleaning around the house, which always makes me feel better.  And the Olympics start on Friday!

Thankful for today:  I have 2 wonderful sous chefs who helped make muffins (and didn't fight while we were making them!).  I have a husband who thinks my "big brain" is sexy as all get out.  And I am fortunate to finally be getting back to a happy place in my life.


*Bonus question*


What is your favourite summer food and/or drink treat?   As for food...I would say melon.  YUM.  For a non-alcoholic drink....Lemonade!  And for an "adult" drink....OJ, Coconut Rum, and Grenadine!
