Kitchen Disasters and other ramblings
Okay so I decided to add some protein for breakfast and I really like soft boiled eggs but discovered I can't make soft boiled eggs! I tried twice this morning but got hard boiled both times!! UGH! So I was disgusted and still hungry and reached into the candy dish but TA DA I decided a kitchen failure was not worth blowing my whole day with chocolate!! It was a break through I tell ya!! So here I sit with my water bottle waiting for the DISH network guy to come. Tried to tell DH if we got satellite upstairs where the exercise equipment is I would work out more but he just laughed and laughed and laughed. >SIGH< It was worth a try! BTW I haven't exercised yet today but I will once DISH has been and gone.
Today was the day I was going to jury duty but when I called they said the jury trial for today had been canceled so I guess the parties reached some sort of settlement or something. I am in the jury pool until the end of October so I'll probably get called again. My SIL had to go last week and she said there were 200 people in the room with her, each getting paid $10 and they only used jurors 1-28. SIL was number 29! She's a teacher too and has a much more high strung principal than I do so she was relieved!!
DH and I went to a get together at my principals house yesterday. LOTS OF FOOD! Appetizers, hamburgers, bratwursts, potato casserole, mac and cheese, cole slaw, cake, cookies, brownies, bowls of M&Ms on every table in the house! And of course my arch enemy SODA! But I was good: I had already drunk my one soda so I drank water but I did have a small piece of cake and a brownie. The brownie was gross--dry and bitter so not worth it.
