Hi All,
OK, where is everybody?! I'm at work, slacking off. Played hooky yesterday! Will be playing hooky again Monday, since I have no time left!
I'm starting to get excited about moving. Called Verizon and the Cablevision this AM and made arrangements to have the services transferred. Cable said I have to call back in a couple weeks because they don't have the schedules up for February yet. Verizon even let me pick out a phone number!!
So as long as DH likes it, we've got our phone number!! Even though we take occupancy 1/15, I'm scheduling everything for 2/1, because by the time we get everything moved, it'll probably be 2/1! DH & I are going to the bank tomorrow AM to sign the lease and have it notarized.
BFB- Congrats on staying away from the chips...now, stay away from the pudding!!
Pryia- Great attitude about the jeans!! You go!!
Jul- Good for you staying pretty much in control, not going overboard!
Elisa- It was Pumpkin Pie...have to make another one for Tuesday dinner. I have one bag of pumpkin left in the freezer from the pumpkin I bought in the fall and cooked in the pressure cooker!
I have to say, I made a great dinner last night! I had a couple boneless center cut pork chops that I took out of the freezer last weekend that I had sealed with the vacu-lock thing. I had put some sesame ginger marinade in with them before freezing about a month ago. I had a half an onion and an apple, which I chopped up and put half the mix in the oven with the chops. Then I cut my butternut squash in half and nuked it for 10 minutes. I scooped out a little of it and mixed it with some stuffing mix I made. Added the other half of the apple/onion mix to it and put it in the halves and stuck it in the oven. Baked it for about 30 minutes. Those were the moistest chops I've ever had, and the flavor was incredible!! And the squash was just delicious!
Sorry to toot my own horn, but when something I make comes out that good, I can't help it...I'm not exactly Betty Crocker!! DH said it was really good, and he's not big on pork chops or squash!!
OH well, nothing much else going on. FIL is home and resting. Hope everyone has a great New Year's! We'll be at the IL's probably...not really my idea of a good time, but it'll make FIL happy.
