Shhh.. don't tell Daddy!

Brian is off doing his first 50K run (wow!) So Erin and I have had a fun day doing all the things we're not supposed to do.

Dipping our bacon in orange juice..... (why did I not think of this before?!)

Eating our bacon on the "good" carpet (the one with fewest stains) while watching Sesame Street.

But we'll clean up after ourselves so he'll never know. 

 You won't tell, will you?

On the Food Affinities of Beer

On the way to work this morning, Ms. A and I were trying to figure out where to go for dinner tonight. We were debating between two brewpubs. Here's the scene:

Me: "Man, but you know what would go good with beer? A nice burger." (I hold up my hand in a 'C' shape, miming a nice big burger)
Ms. A: "Yeah, but I don't think the first place has burgers. It's a pizza place."
Me: "Hm, bummer. Well, what else goes good with beer?"
Ms. A: "Everything."

Now that's catchy!

Just found this.

Body art in two acts

Blue-purple is from the 1/2 cup frozen blueberries she ate for dinner.

Black-ink scribbles are, well, only Erin knows what they mean.  

I am happy we do not have white carpets.
