Finishing this dish with lime zest and juice brightens its rich flavors.

Honey Do List

Tom's parting words when he woke me this morning to say good bye. "I will do the dishes when I get home. I mean it, don't touch them."

Hey buddy you don't have to tell me twice. I do feel this need to get my life in order before tomorrow. I was able to bend enough to paint my toenails. But I really wish I had the color I wore in Erika's wedding. It was OPI's "I'm Really Not A Waitress Red." Love, love, loved it.
Now I am leaving to go grocery shopping. Gotta make sure we are well stocked for the next few days. I think I might also stop by the library and get some reading material. The books on my nightstand now aren't interesting me. I want something light and simple to read.
Oh and after much begging, pouting and cost analysis spreadsheets Tom agreed we could join Netflix. Yipee! My first three selections are already on their way. I have ten more movies cued up for after I send the first ones back. I put a bunch of independent films on there that will never come to any theater even close to where I live. Do DVD rentals really get any lazier?

NetFlix is AWESOME! You are going to have a WONDERFUL time using it. You can pre-queue movies that are not on dvd yet, incase you wanted to know :)

I had Netflix for a while and I enjoyed it immensely. Have you seen Catch Me If You Can yet? Very good movie! We watched a few nights ago.
