A quiet day.

Nacho flavored taco

Monday, March 19, 2012

I am a marketer’s dream.
A sucker for the new thing to try.
Increasingly finding out about their schemes through social media.
Unable to resist for lack of better gumption.

The taco? Not as neat as you might expect if you favor Doritos
or can stomach Taco Bell from time to time.

Extremely brittle and barely registering flavor.

My mistake was getting the supreme version.
With “sour cream” that was applied way, way too liberally.
A request for “just a bead” would fall on deaf ears.
Chipotle doesn’t get that either.

I drive home with stains on my shirt,
nacho flavored cheetle in my beard,
and shame.

Spring was not cancelled

Sunday, March 18, 2012

The color schemes for Easter make sense.

Cute as a bug

This Fiat 500 is pretty adorable.

Caught this decked out ride on the river as I scrambled around the city for a few choice supplies
and various pieces of furniture to surprise a friend who was out of town.

Instead of simply cat-sitting I decided to channel Niecy Nash from Clean House and give the
place a deep spring cleaning and spice up a few rooms. The 12 hour marathon turned out great.
(And the recipient was quite pleased.)

St. Patrick’s Day Parade

Saturday, March 17, 2012

With weather this nice, it’d be tough to skip out on a parade downtown.
Maybe they weren’t expecting the REALLY HUGE crowd, because there was only a single beer truck.
Thing is, it was fun standing in the really long line and soak up the sun and people.

(more…)

He knew it was called an AT-ST and I didn’t

I’m not sure it’s considered babysitting if it lasts for 2 hours, but that’s what went down.
It flew by thanks to equal parts:

1. Lego VW bus assembly (nowhere near complete)

2. Super Mario World classic SNES game

3. Breaking out old Star Wars toys

4. Annie’s cheddar bunny snack mix and soda water.

5. Hitting the nieghborhood playground because the St. Patrick’s Day weather was AMAZING.

I wonder if I could have kept them entertained for much more with all that packed in.

That said, I salute parents.

 

10 buck challenge

Friday, March 16, 2012

Tom and I took two hours out of the afternoon to see what we could make with 10 bucks each from the dollar store.

I’m undecided if we improved upon the materials, but I’m leaning toward ‘yes.’

See what we made.
