“Today I did absolutely nothing, and it was everything I’d hoped it could be…”
Ok, so not really, but I only left home once and that was to get something for dinner. I did go to Wal-Mart and return the cheap, crummy “pizza stone” that I purchased broken the other week. It still sounds like a cool idea and I’ve heard that they’re the best for your Italian baking creations, so if anyone’s looking for a neat Christmas gift for me, there you go…just plan on spending a little more than $6 and don’t buy it at Wal-Mart!
I also broke down and bought an oven mitt because my dish towels simply weren’t cutting it anymore. Ever notice how you can never find a manly oven mitt? They’ve got more vegetables and flowers than you can shake a stick at, but no skeletons or diesel engines or anything. I’d have settled for even a solid-colored one, but nothing – maybe us guys don’t belong in the kitchen after all! I think I ended up with one bearing a farm scene with some cows on it. Sorry, guys – it was the best I could do…
And thanks to Kim’s insight, I’m now making ice the way that rich people do – something else is doing it for me! (…or do the rich people actually pay somebody else to move the little arm up and down for them, too?) It’s actually a pretty slick process, and I know this because I stood there and watched the entire thing…woo-hoo, party! The wild antics just never end when you’re at my place…
