hmmm





hmmmm...lasagna was brilliant.  who makes it at 9:30 in the morning???  that would be me.  why??  because I was in the mood for it and I was hungry...and my child said she would help me eat it.  So, as we both sat in the kitchen waiting for it to finish cooking (she has just gotten shots from her pediatrician...and I was willing to do whatever to make her feel better) I wondered why on earth can I not just cook because I want to anymore??  why do I have to have an occasion to cook....is my family not enough of a reason to actually make meals anymore??   I had to toss my favorite frying pan last month, and since then I have just NOT been the same.  grrr.  I have yet to tackle fried pork chops since the dying of the pan, and I really really want to.  >sigh<  such silly road blocks we put up for ourselves.  I mean, as I threw the pan in the trash I wanted to lay down on the floor and weep like some emotionally disturbed child. 

In other news : I still hate Valentines Day.  I mean really??  so the candy and flower industry make tons, everybody is encouraged to have sex, which means OB's are gonna be in demand 9 months from now....it is all about industry  ;)  Question of the day??  "Did I buy myself chocolates??"   I refuse to answer.  

Ok, so I have an option for a venue for my wedding.  I wanted the winery that is a few minutes from my house (it is beautiful and very Tuscan feeling) but they wanted an outrageous amount of money just to rent.....but they called and said they would make me a deal.....so now I have to decide if I want it or not....it would be perfect.  I need to talk to the Englishman and get his opinion....but it is an option  :}  And I am thinking that I want my favorite food at the wedding...is it weird to want pasta at your wedding???  like loads of different spaghetti??  And maybe some Chicken Alfredo....hmm, I am gonna go eat another serving of the lasagna  :}

LOVE QUOTE for the day??   
"I have this dream of being whole. Of not going to sleep each night, wanting. But still sometimes, when the wind is warm or the crickets sing... I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me. I want to be seen."

  3. Mmmmm I may have to make lasagna soon. I have been wanting to try chicken lasagna.. maybe I will! Need some cheese first. And I looove the idea of pasta wedding!! Yum yum yum. Italian food is my fav, I think.

    What happened to your frying pan? That would be sad to lose something so comfortable!

  4. mm, I love chicken lasagna! I used turkey in the lasagna before this one and it was good, but chicken has a better taste. I loooove the idea of a pasta wedding too :} I am gonna do it. spaghetti is so romantic, afterall, it was used in Lady and the Tramp ;)

    my frying pan decided it was going to burn anything and everything that was put in it. It had been my grandmothers, so it had been well loved, but it just goes to prove that there is NOTHING like cast iron. And I am going to need to find me a wonderful new cast iron skillet. I cried. Daniel was here and I went to fry pork chops in it...yeah, I cried. and then everything else i cooked in it turned out gross. So, my grandmother said it was time to put it to rest lol. I am still emotionally torn up about it.
