omg! i finally stick my nose out of the cave only to find we're in a hurricane cone. thud. it's been raining every afternoon . . . which i secretly adore . . . but hurricanes have never ranked high on my experience list and 2004 certainly scratched that itch. so come Sunday, the rains will click into high drive and i will finally get to wear my Christmas rain boots. boy are my priorities skewed. snort.
i finally went grocery shopping this morning. so much for my usual Sunday morning trek. i love coming home and surveying stocked shelves and a full fridge. i'm like that kid in a candy shop but with no one to tell me no. it's raining veggies!!! since it was only spitting out this morning, i grilled off some chickens, brewed a fresh jug of iced tea and made a honking big spinach salad with the aforementioned chicken, cucumber, black olives, bleu cheese, bacon bits and avocado. slurp-o-licious.
enough fuel to get me cleaning the kitchen . . . or at least those surfaces that can be seen. . . this is, after all, me we are talking about. i finally swept up the mess pippin made when she decided to go digging for gold in the cactus pot, took a couple of inches of grease off the stove, wiped down the counters, appliances, table and at least one cat.
now i can guilt free stick my nose in a book for the rest of the afternoon. Life is good.

So now that you've cleaned up YOUR cave, wanna come do MINE?! We went to a "Meet the Cheesemaker" at Whole Foods last might. There was a recipe card in produce that was for a spinach, goat cheese, plum and red onion salad and I thought of YOU!
I think Isaac thinks he is a Republican and is pi$$ed he didn't get an invite to the RNC in Tampa next week, so he is coming to crash the party! More rain we don't need. Wish he'd go to some of the midwest states that need it so much more than we do.
Sorry for the novel!
I think it's best that your boots remain just a cute addition to your bathroom decor.
