Hey everyone!
Just wanted to write up a little something and let you all know that I’m still around…I’m just chillin’ and generally enjoying the summer.
I’ve been a bit of a homebody lately, which is fine. I go through party phases and then sometimes I just want to stick close to home and do normal stuff. I’ve set myself to the task of mastering some classic summer time recipes and I’m doing great so far. I’ve had a simple potato salad down for quite awhile. Everyone requests it whenever I have or go to a gathering, but I got sick of making it for the millionth time when I made it on the 4th and decided I wanted to expand my repetoire.
So I made baked beans! Yep, from scratch, in a crock pot. They rocked. I’m going to try pasta salad today that has olives, artichoke hearts, cherry tomatoes and parmesan cheese in a mustard vinaigrette. I have a feeling that this one will be perfect from the first try too.
What else should I make? Don’t most barbeques have potato salad, pasta salad, baked beans, chips and some kind of meat? I don’t do meat, so I’m safe there. What other typical summer dish can I master? Hmm? Give me some ideas!
The boy is out of town til Monday and I won’t see Erin again until next weekend, so I imagine that I’ll be signed in a lot for the next week or so. There are a couple of movies I want to go see (Hellboy II, Journey to the Center of the Earth), so I’ll be out for that. I was just looking on Yahoo movies and I guess a new spoof movie is coming out next month called “Disaster Movie”? That looks pretty dumb/funny just like the others of its kind.
I saw Hancock and Wall-E last weekend. I won’t post a big ol’ review, but I liked both of them. Hancock had a twist and a half that had us all goin’ “HUH?”, but I enjoyed it. It didn’t really end with a definite sequel hint though, so I don’t think there will be one. Who knows.
Anyway, I’m off to shower and eat something. I’ll be signed in all day probably, so let’s fuck!
Oh yeah! Shout out to my long time caller who had me playing strip Rock, Paper, Scissors while we were stuck in an elevator. I think that’s quite possibly one of the most fun and creative calls I’ve ever had…whose idea was that anyway? HAHAHA love ya
