Things I Learned Today

I've had about seven blogs go through my head since I last posted, but today was a hectic day and I was busy on my other blog and so, my fabulous readers, I have forgotten them. But in the interests of the blogging commitment I've come to call NaBlowMe, here we go.

Tonight we had wine with dinner, as the cheap white Hubby used to make lemon caper sauce (this is the part where some other bloggers would provide you with a recipe, but since Hubby doesn't actually use recipes I can't help you) was not that bad. So we drank the rest of it. In doing this, I discovered that a glass of wine does make doing the dishes much more pleasant (you would think that I would have discovered this before, but usually when I have wine I do things like ignore the dishes). I have also discovered that a glass of cheap wine gives me a headache.

Today I went to the grocery store BY MYSELF. Thus I discovered that when given time to read all the labels and go slowly enough to remember all the things we need, I spend too much money. Hubby says I'm not allowed to go to the store by myself anymore, but I think he's just jealous.

I also discovered that when Ironflower wears her shirt with the pink flowers, she looks very pretty. But when she puts on her plastic crown, seven bead necklaces and fairy wings, she looks beautiful. She told me so herself.

Finally, I discovered that Lovebug looks very handsome when he wears his cowboy hat, four bead necklaces and two rubber bracelets. Ironflower informed me about this as well. She's a style maven, that one.

It sounds like Ironflower may be giving Julia fashion advice. She's running around in a tu-tu wearing three or four necklaces. And a crown.

I rarely get to go shopping by myself, but I'm the opposite! I spend less when it's just me.
