living the life....
*swimming* in the driveway
life has been deelightful, deeeeelicious, and deeeeevine...
I must say, that there is nothing better in this world than home-cookin' straight from the garden....
tonight we had balsamic marinated chicken, with zucchini and squash(all from the garden) gratin....and a huge salad chock full o' tomatos and cukes from the garden...AHHHHHMAZING. Oh and no joke, for dessert, zucchini brownies, which everybody except the hubs TOTALLY DUG. Hubs has a major prejudice for most veggies, which is super frustrating...but can't have it all right....
he actually puts as much in his mouth as he can fit, waters it down and swallows it whole...so he can't taste it. and folks, not to make an issue here, but i really am a good cook...the man just doesn't like veggies. insane.
i haven't been posting much about my garden, but i am so in love. i absolutely heart the fresh pesto almost every other day, the bruschetta to die for, and my biggest bean popping sun ripened cherry tomatos like it's nobody's buisness.
the kidlets are good, we had a busy quiet day in the house that was full of laundering, baking, and staying cozy...don't get me wrong, been loving hopping out of bed and hauling the crew to the gym, followed by routines, and chaos, but it was SOOO stinkin' nice to spend a WHOLE day HOME....
i am so behind on posting, that i have more stories to tell than i could even begin to get out....
a few notes..
happy 31st to mimi and pa...a blissful marriage...we love you both and look forward to the next 31 years of adventures..
girls day is next thursday, and i am OVER THE MOON, to hang with the girls at the home front, sippin' iced cofees eating homebaked lovins' and chatty chat chattin....
roll call???
i know i was tagged by *erina* whom i also want to send out congrats to...
so i think that while there are so many random things about me...i am gonna pass, as benji-bean is about to wake up, big bean is giving little T "piggy-bank" rides all over the house, which more or less consist of her wrapping her arms around his bony little waist, and him running all kamikaze-like around the house dragging her little feet on the ground...i know, i know, but really peeps, i must pick my battles.
also a mondo congrats to Jenica who just welcomed #4, amazing lady, i tell yah, cuz i am pretty sure three is my max...i actually think i love excercising so much, that i don't want to have to give up the stairmaster again...I KNOW. CRAZY.
and lastly, i leave you with this series....the big bean "helping" me unload the groceries from the car. LOVELY. Everything fared well except for the grapes...but i think it was actually worth it...
hugs y'all.
and as T says..
nighty-nite
we won't let the bug bugz bite...
see you in the beautiful day...
