- Baked a crazy delicious cake (mine wasn't quite as pretty, but it was damn good)
- Had a slumber party with my oldest girlfriend
- Attended a disappointing football game in a beautifully renovated stadium
- Made the best breakfast sandwiches ever
- Played with a ton of children
- Had a ladies' night (complete with the requisite nail polish, chick flicks, and abundant food)
- Ate an entire box of mac and cheese while watching TLC (ladies' night #2)
- Exploded a dishwasher hose (more on that later)
- Organized the cookbooks (more impressive than it sounds)
- Did several loads of laundry and dishes (whoa baby)
- Was told multiple times that "there's no rush, of course, you just got married, but you don't want to wait too long to start having babies, you know, there are health risks, and well, you have time, but still"
- Began a bit of the "clear the living room" organization project (more on that later)
- Stared into the abyss that is our huge living room closet. It needs so much work.
What did you do on this holiday weekend?
(or non-holiday weekend, if you had to work or aren't in the US)
Ed Note: I forgot to mention that at aforementioned slumber party, I (we) also made homemade French Onion Soup. From scratch. With broth that I had frozen in March after making Corned Beef and Cabbage. From scratch. And we created exactly three portions (me, friend, husband). Not to toot my own horn (toot toot), but I think we might be magical. From scratch.
