Hosted my book club at our house on Friday. Shakily led a discussion about Eat, Pray, Love.
Made marscapone cupcakes as part of our Italian dessert theme.
Was very disappointed in them. Shook fist in the direction of Giada De Laurentiis, her toothy grin, and overly busty wardrobe.
Took solace in the pretty cupcake wrappers.
Left at 8am for the Delaware/James Madison game at noon.
Took an inordinate number of pictures and ended up with a few nice ones. Screamed my face off during a game that was too close for comfort. Breathed a sigh of relief when Delaware pulled out the win. Made sure to document the scoreboard so as to rub it into brother-in-law’s face because he is a JMU alumnus.
Further confirmed my love of inexpensive flowers and made Walter pose for a photo shoot.
Went to dinner with friends at the cheesiest, loudest Tex-Mex place ever. Realized that my throat was too hoarse from the game to shout over the music. Shouted anyway between sips of sangria.
Ordered yummy fish tacos. Couldn’t eat the beans or rice due to excessive spiciness. Loved the place anyway. Will order fries next time.
Sang on the worship team at church the next day. Bad move.
Enjoyed chili with friends afterward. Shared wedding stories and registry tactics since they’re getting married next summer.
Played with Ted while JG graded a stack of papers.
Drank tea this morning to soothe the still-sore throat. Regret that I sound like a 60-year-old smoker over the phone. Am looking forward to leftover chili for lunch.

Now that Giada is pregnant, she’s only going to get bustier!!
I read your comment and I was all, “Wha…?!” After a quick, confirming Google search, I agree that this is only the beginning of the attack of the cleavage. I will avert my eyes appropriately.
I take issue with Giada’s wardrobe. I was talking about her with a male co-worker and he couldn’t even tell me what she does on TV, he just knows her from her low-cut shirts.
There’s really no need to wear such low-cut tops, especially when she wears an apron only around her waist. What? JG calls her “porn girl,” if that says anything about where we stand.
1. I think RA with a 60-year-old smoker voice would be hilarious.
2. Walter looks very nice and dignified.
1. It probably is funny for people who know me. For people who don’t, I imagine that it’s rather disconcerting.
2. I think so, too!
Hi I am looking for a new book to read and I came across your blog from “love is blonde” I saw that you were hosting a get together for eat, pray, love. How is that book? I was thinking about reading it this week. Thanks
Hi, Lauren! I really liked “Eat, Pray, Love” and I was pleasantly surprised by how conversational the tone is. It does get a little out-there in the meditation parts, but I would definitely recommend it. Let me know what you think, okay?
