I survived the grocery...not too bad, really.

I may kill DS2...but I won't. Itty bitty would miss her Daddy.

Going to meet DS1 for lunch at 1:00.

What did DS2 do?

I can see I struck a nerve. The gluttony remark was a joke. I titled this Sinful Saturday and Gluttony is one of the seven sins. I thought it was funny. Apparently, I am the only that shares in my humor. Which is fine. Everyone else can sit there and be offended.

---

I figured you were kidding, NJN! I didn't take it seriously.

But, you forgot the little winky guy.

I try to remember to add him, when I kidding, so folks won't take it the wrong way.

 Yes, I'm not big on emoticons.

Roger that! A lot of people don't use them very much.

But, sometimes they come in handy. Just to avoid any confusion, if you catch my drift.

I thought this would be a good title for today since everyone was talking about Jesus dying for our sins.  And maybe in preparation for tomorrow when everyone practices gluttony at Easter dinner?

---

 I guess I don't see the joke either.

---

 Gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins.  Sinful Saturday+gluttony=Easter Dinner.  I thought it was funny.  Of course, NO ONE EVER OVER EATS on Easter.  Ever.  That was sarcasm.  There's no emoticon for that.

 LOL! Wayne is normally good with his portion control. Not on holidays! He eats too much, every single time!

And then, he blames it on my good cooking!

Brat! It's not like I hold a gun to his head, and force him to take seconds. Or thirds!

Bonny - someome ways gets shafted. The key is to keep rotating who it is. Sorry. Wish I had better advice. Lol Usually if there was a way, I would ensure I was the one who got the short end of the stick - but my
DH recognizes that and spoils me when he can so it all works out.

Surprise - DH invited people over today to watch a game on TV. So I cleaned this morning.

Surprise - DD invited people over tomorrow for Easter dinner. So I am cooking tomorrow now. Lol. Apparently the dining hall is serving chicken fingers. Not for Easter dinner. Just. No. Lol. So I am happy to host a bunch of teenagers who will eat and smile and laugh and appreciate my cooking.

Won't be on much - have to company clean, shop, cook...gonna be busy. Was looking forward to a lazy weekend. Not gonna happen.

Wow! Sounds like your weekend just got really busy, in a hurry!

It's nice that you're being such a good sport about it!

I hope your family appreciates your effort!

(I'm sure they do.)

I was thinking flat marbles or some type of glass. The counter I want to do is about 7 feet long and houses my stand mixer, Keurig, nutri bullet, and microwave. They are all stainless and/or black. I have some chicken and rooster decor over that way and copper molds on the wall.

---

 Those flat marbles would be gorgeous under the epoxy.

I would say bf and I put in an equal amount of work. If I cook, he cleans and if he cooks I clean.

 We do that with meals as well.

But there is SO much more to running a household than the meals. I think that's what Bonny was referring to. Plus, with a toddler, there isn't much "me time" let alone time where you feel like doing something nice for someone else.

 Thanks! We just tossed in an impromptu trip to Mall of America smack in the middle of the day. So I am sitting here checking my phone while DD is trying on clothes. She helped clean up today and will help tomorrow too. 

---

You are a glutton for punishment! The mall? Ack!

Good to hear she will give you a hand! My crew will help out, too.

Thank goodness. Or, I'd have to beat them all! 

Aint he cute! Makes me smile every time I see him! 

 

You can't see it, but he shimmers too!

Making a twice bake potato and lobster tail for dinner. Got every thing done that I had planned to do today. But it's still early so I may start on tomorrow's chores tonight. I am in such an energetic mood! Hope everyone has a wonderful evening and if no plans hang here with me on TG. I may have to pause for a bit, neighbor coming over for some wine.

---

Yummy! Your dinner sounds delish!

I have a few more chores to do, but, I'll be around. On and off.

 I've been in and out all day. Tidied the kitchen and that's about it.  We invited Dd's BFF over for taco night so now I need to Cook, shred,  and chop.

Gluten free lemon bars done. Carrot cake done. Whipped cream icing yet to do.

 I would love to get your recipe for your twice baked potato! 

---

 All you do is bake the potatoes then when cooled slice in half the long way.  Then scoop out the potato and use a mixer to make mashed potato like potatoes add in some green onion (chopped), fresh parm cheese, salt and pepper, some butter and any thing else you like.  Mix it all and then scoop back into the potato skins.  You can refrigerate and just pop in the oven  for 1/2 hour or so on 350 when you want to eat them.  Sprinkle paprika on for color.

Almost FOUR HOURS with Itty bitty!!!!

 You are making me jealous!  I so want one of those GB kid.

Still no grand children in my future. But, Conor and Jessi adopted another dog!

So, I have two grand doggies!

This is a female, about 2 years old. A black lab/Australian cattle dog mix.

Her name is Duchess, and she seems very sweet, and good natured.

Ares seems to like her just fine.

What a surprise! They took Ares to Petsmart for his bath, and came home with another dog.

I got the home made carrot cake done. I shredded the carrots and had to crush the pineapple as I only had chunked. I threw in raisins and walnuts. I made the frosting too but I will wait till tomorrow to assemble it so it will be fresh. I finished the lemon bars and sprinkled them with powdered sugar. I was going to start on the deviled eggs but I think I'm going to wait.
