Good Eats, Hot Treats!

Last night, Daniel and I went to Sam's. We treated ourselves to a piece of pizza each, a coke, and a coke-float---all for less than $6. Not a bad deal but not very healthy. We walked around Sam's and found some ciabatta bread. I'm gonna make some hamburgers and use those as my buns. I'm pretty excited about it. We also bought some popsicles--fresh fruit ones and they are quite yummy.

Today, I went to the farmer's market and got some squash, okra, corn, and peaches. I plan to make a peach cobbler at some point for Daniel. Later we went to this grocery store called Bloom. It was okay, but we both felt really weird there. There wasn't any music, the lights were dim, and very few people around. I mean the store was clean and everything was presented well, but something about it was just a little weird. We were glad to get outta there. It wasn't in a bad part of town or anything--I don't know, just weird. When we got home, I took a nap and Daniel watched the Cubs game. I got a special treat. Daniel decided to cook dinner for me tonight! He made homemade pasta! He made tortellini stuffed with beef and cheese boiled in beef broth with sauteed veggies--squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and onions. We opened a bottle of wine and it was quite delicious. While he was working on that, I went to Target to get a few things.

Tomorrow we will be having dinner with Uncle Bill and we can't wait to hear all about his latest trip. Uncle Bill and Janet have set a date- November 22nd. I think Steve, Susan and Elizabeth will be staying with us for the wedding so that will be pretty fun. Maw-Maw will be coming up here in a few days so we are looking forward to that. Well that'll do.
