Lazy Sunday

Big surprise; it rained again today! It's a good thing though, we're almost up to our average rainfall in P-town. It's rained at least 41 inches as of this afternoon and the average is 52 inches for the year.

We spent most of the weekend shopping and playing at home. Yesterday morning we went to Target and Chris got the newest Kings of Leon CD and I bought two new pairs of heels. They're identical pointy toed, sling back, 2.5" inch heels. One in camel, one in patent black. We also stopped at Wally World so that I could pick up my photos and have something to do in the afternoon while he worked in the garage. We were able to squeeze in a quick walk around the block before heading to the 'rents for dinner (even though it did make us a couple minutes late). We had steak (that Chris bbq'd), baked potatoes, salad and asiago cheese bread from Safeway (my new favorite bread in the whole wide world). It was good, I just try not to dwell on how fatty it was. The 'rents don't use 'lite' or 'fat free' anything. Perhaps that's why their food tastes so much better than mine...
Chris hanging out on their front porch, begging for a meal full of meat.

While we were visiting with the 'rents, Mr. A. gave us a copy of an article he wrote and illustrated that's going to be published in some local electric car newsletter. Kind of interesting.

We woke up to rain today. It'd poured all night so there were puddles everywhere taunting me to skip church. So I did. Actually I slept too late to make it to the contemporary service and would have had to go to the traditional service where they sing hymns and speak in Latin, or something like that. Instead I stayed home and made homemade blueberry scones which came out very tasty. Chris did some more garage work while I did important things, like washing sheets and downloading recipes for dinner. There was a Nascar race on in the afternoon that we watched and then we finally sat down and watched Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. It was good, but I thought it'd be funnier. I think I say that about everything, though. Our one foray out this afternoon was to The Upper Crust to pick up our anniversary cake. It's white cake with layers of tart lemon curd. OMG it sounds soooo good.

Awww.....look at that. Isn't it cute? I sure am going to enjoy eating it while Chris watches because it sure doesn't look big enough for the both of us. We're both getting off work early on Tuesday and going to an early showing of The Wrestler and then out to dinner at Johnnie's which is downstairs at the Hotel Diamond (next the parking structure and connected to the Phoenix Building). The 'rents gave us a card yesterday with money for a "romantic anniversary dinner". So we can either go to Johnnie's for the evening or eat at La Comida for the rest of the year. Hmmm....choices.
