various and sundry, part deux

the blogfog {like that? i just thought of it} continues...

*people, ask me some friggin' questions. it will give me something to do.

*so last thursday night i cooked for the new boy for the first time. i made babe's beloved mexican lasagna and this citrus avocado salad. the salad was meh. the lasagna was off-the-charts delicious {thank you, dear alice!}. i sent him home with half a pan of leftovers. i got a guilty phone call the next night confessing that he had eaten the entire thing in one sitting. mission accomplished.

*how am i just now discovering the pioneer woman? my god, J'ADORE her!! currently sitting here drooling over the rosemary rolls recipe...

*which will go great with this meatloaf recipe i am making for the boy next week. he asked me to cook for him again. i'm really liking this excuse to cook with obscene amounts of ground beef. i feel like it justifies all of the red wine.

*which is why i'm starting the 30-day shred on saturday. actually kind of looking forward to it. well, more accurately, looking forward to lounging around in a teeny bikini for a week in palm springs {let the countdown to april 14 begin!}

*no, really. ask me some questions.

*lacrosse season starts tonight. thank god...the first sign of spring.

well, there you have it, my darlings. the second non sequitur brain dump in a week. please pray that spring thaw will also bring a brain thaw pour moi.
