Anton and I went to the store to get some things, but when we got there I didn't feel like going in, so I gave him the list and told him I'd be hangin' out in the car. When he comes back (with way more than what was on the list) he said, "So, when you said mascara... did you mean eye liner...?" For some reason I felt like this was going to happen. "No, if I wanted eye liner, I would have written...eye liner... on the list instead of mascara."
Also, during a special time of month for me when I was feeling particularly depressed, he came home and said, "Honey, I got you something that will make you feel better." Guess what he had. Go ahead, you'll never guess. Was it chocolate? That's what I was thinking when he said it would make me feel better. Nope. Orange flavored gummy bears! Firstly, I hate gummy bears. Secondly, I hate anything orange flavored. But he was so sincere and actually thought that would make me feel better because--this is what he said, "Look! Tiny, little bears!" I just laughed...and wished I had chocolate.
And now...we are having rabbit for dinner. For real. Anton went spotlighting this morning before the sun came up, and he got a rabbit. And we're eating it for dinner tonight. I put some veggies, from my garden : ) together and seasoned them to put in the oven and bake to go with his rabbit, which he is cooking according to an Italian recipe he found. Incidentally, he swears he was supposed to be Italian instead of Ukrainian. I think I'll wait until after dinner to post this so I can include how it turns out.
Okay. That may have just been the best dinner Anton and I have ever made together. Honestly, I didn't think I would like rabbit. Turns out, there is pretty much no fat or gristle and maybe it was the way Anton cooked it, but it tasted pretty darn good. And my veggie concoction was a piece of heaven.
I will share what I did: Cut up some potatoes, carrots, zucchini (those were all the ones I had, Anton used the others for his part), seasoned them with onion powder, garlic salt, seasoned salt, pepper, and some mesquite chicken seasoning, and then I sprinkled olive oil and real bacon bits all over it and baked it in the oven. Amazing!
P.S. I dyed my hair for the first time in my life. It was supposed to be darkest brown...but it turned black. It was a couple weeks ago, and now it has faded to darkest brown. I think I like it. I think I will stay dark forever.
I'm so stoked that my sisters are actually blogging again! You and Anton are so funny :). Really, eyeliner instead of mascara, and chocolate vs. gummy bears? Bahahaha. When I see you again you should totally cook rabbit and roasted vegetables for me. And dying your hair should not be a P.S. (as in, oh, by the way...). Pictures?!
ReplyDeleteI agree. Dying your hair is definitely a spotlight kind of thing. That was the last color I died mine though and it turned out the same way. I liked it a lot but Miguel decided that he likes my natural color better...we shall see who wins this one after I'm done growing out my highlights :) I'm glad to hear your cooking and EATING! Practice, practice, practice. I'm tellin' ya, it could be your new hobby :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I pretty much never let Miguel go in without me. He can go to the store completely without me if he's looking for something for him :) but not when I need things, lol.
