This is what is currently cooking in my Crock Pot.
Add the Bullrun marathon that we are currently watching and I am in heaven. This is ramping up to be a pretty awesome Thanksgiving.
Take that Turkey Day!
Since my Thanksgiving plans fell through, I had to kind of scramble to figure out what to make here in the apartment. We don’t have a conventional grocery store nearby so while I can get live turtles and frogs, I can not buy a turkey or even turkey breasts. There is no gravy to be bought and no cranberry sauce to be had. Oh yeah, and I don’t have an oven. And it has to be dairy free.
To be quite honest, I was starting to seriously freak. I really want this to be kind of amazing since my last two Turkey Days were all kinds of suck.
But who says you have to have turkey? Neither R nor I are all that found of it to begin with. So here is our menu:
- Slow cooker BBQ spare ribs
- Stove Top stuffing (I got the last box left at Target!)
- Instant mashed potatoes
- Rice-a-Roni
No veggies. No fresh ingredients apart from the ribs. And I am all kinds of excited. Now I must go back to cutting out fall-themed doilies to decorate the apartment.
*mwah*
As if I needed another reason to love Bulgarians…
(R is Bulgarian, by the way. His accent is kinda hot. And yes, I still totally have a schoolgirl crush on my own boyfriend.)
Once again, making me glad he's my ex!
Martha Lilian: i just threw up in my mouth
Rob: kinky
Martha Lilian: our ideas of kink clearly differ
Rob: my idea of kink is seeing how mad I can get you before I see you tonight
Martha Lilian: you're one seriously sick puppy
As someone with her fair share of food issues, this blog looks like it is going to be an interesting read. I really like PsychCentral and often repost their articles, so I don’t doubt that this will be a win.
For some families, holidays are just another excuse to get together to eat good food and to have a good time. They’re not looking for articles like this one because they’ve somehow figured out the formula for successful family togetherness with minimum stress. If you have a challenging family, it’s only human to be a bit incredulous and then more than a bit jealous to see other folks living out the holiday fantasy when you’re just trying to live through it
Caitlin Natalie: it wasnt like a oh whoops this is my phone good thing i realized my mistake
Caitlin Natalie: nono, it was a why isnt there water left in this glass? OHBECAUSEITSAPHONE
You know that myth where when you are sick animals are supposed to comfort you...
It’s a total lie. Whenever I spend half the night hacking up a lung, Lola is scratching at the door to get out of the bedroom. Bitch likes her sleep, can’t say I blame her.
Thank god I took nyquil last night. My goal for this week is to not hack on two of the ladies from the View tomorrow and a cast member from Glee.
Ha! Maximus did this last night too. R has had a horrible cough for a couple of weeks now and Maximus is all like “eff this, I am going to sleep in my own bed”.
A heart breaking discovery...
It has been three weeks since I moved to my new home and I have just realized that the stove is non-functional. With Thanksgiving just around the corner and an illegal dog being harbored in my apartment, the situation doesn’t look good. R is hesitant to call the super on account of the puppy predicament but I also NEED to bake and roast.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
