Recent Happenings

top row, right to left: 1) the Meows being super cute. And helpful, as Mariposa Guards. 2) Chicken stuffed with proscuitto and cheese, from target (before). 3) the "after" of said stuffed chicken. 4) I LEARNED HOW TO PARK MY CAR IN REVERSE!!!! This is something that *everyone* does here in Atlanta and I never tried doing it, but when one of my minions was in town, she made me do it. And, now every night when I get home from work, this is how I park my car! (Well, the picture is of me parking this way at another minion's place, but it was the first time I had done it so I had to take a picture of it. Der.)

Row 2, right to left: 1) the baby blanket I'm knitting for my friend. i am really digging this pattern! For whatever reason, I had been calling her kid "lizzie lemon" and she just found out the gender yesterday.... IT'S A GIRL! and the blanket I'm knitting just *happens* to be a LEMON yellow!!!! 2) the picture on the UNSWEETENED ICED TEA thing at the burrito place that I got picture #3 from. How funny is this! 3) chicken and broccoli burrito, chips, and guac. I highly recommend broccoli in burritos. AMAZING. 4) scoop of (dairy free) coconut ice cream and mint chocolate chip (full of dairy). The dairy free was made w/ coconut milk and almond milk... also delish!

Row 3, right to left: 1) lizzie lemon's baby blanket, 2) MY MEOW MEOW LOVE, 3) lotus salad with yummy papadum like things and 4) shaken beef over watercress, both of these were lunch from a local vietnamese place that i went to with coworkers. MY BELLY WAS SO HAPPY after this meal. My coworkers and I decided halfway through the meal that we would go there monthly lol...

Row 4, right to left: 1) mine and Suzanne's sandwiches from a local spot called Victory. One her sandwiches was this veggie sandwich made with beets that were prepared like pastrami. My sandwiches were pimento and ham, and a cuban - both ridiculously delicious. 2) I found (award winning!) ravioli at my local market (Savi Urban Market) that is shaped like FISHIES and tastes like mac and cheese. Paired with my favorite summer wine, Casal Garcia Vino Verdhe, and I am one happy chick. 3 and 4) My *other* MEOW MEOW LOVE, hiding in a bag.

  1. cool! lots of happenings. i miss the vino verdheeee it was so good when i had it that one time in ATL. mac & cheese anything sounds awesome. i had a huge craving to put something satisfying in my belly after work today and i almost made a pre-dinner box of mac & cheese, haha. i settled instead for chai & murukkus (i had to look up the spelling of that just now). baby blanket looks AWESOME!! makes really want to start a crochet project... the vietnamese food looks great. i am dying for some really good asian food, not so much of it to be had around here. aaaand, interesting culture difference, parking backward instead of forward! aaaand, cute kitties!
