Weekend

This weekend was very nice. Yesterday the boys and I did a couple errands and hung out while Eric worked. We had some friends over Saturday night, so I made a roast that I cooked to perfection, even had a lil pink right in the middle for me. Gravy was a pain though, I put all my stuff into the blender, blend it, go to take it out of the bottom, and the whole bottom of the container stuck, I had 450 degree gravy EVERYWHERE, on my FRESHLY cleaned floor ( I swear I am never cleaning it again, ever) all over the counter, the dishwasher, ugh such a mess. But we fixed it, and it was great. We played some bump it, and totally killed the new kid. We also tried a new drink i saw on the food network. Vodka Mojitos. AWESOME!! And cheap, except for the Mint, you probably have all the stuff you need all the time……the simple syrup is sweet enough that it covers the vodka (which is why it's awesome) I used bottled lime juice, and it was still very tasty.

So after playing bump-it last night, we decided to take a lil trip to the wizard’s chest and get some new ones ;-) not to get rid of what we have, but to add to them, give people more choices. I was kinda disappointed with the selection, but I bought what they had. Of course now, I have to get bags to put them in.

Then we went to country buffet because Aragorn LOVES that place, and we all enjoyed a nice lunch together. It was pretty cool, when we walked in, there was nothing but a sea of green BTU’s. Eric said he talked to one of the guys and he said they go there about once a month. I wish I could have gotten a picture, but by the time we got settled they had left. I was very amazed though at how people treated them. They moved aside, or gave up their place in line. There was one guy that was thanking all of them, individually. It was pretty cool. Otherwise not to much here. Hung around. Eric watched star wars with the boys tonight, I got pictures!!! So awesome……….
