Manic Monday

I am officially sold on the "Make Ahead Meal" meal thing. It's the working woman's dream! Today I took a meatloaf out of the freezer at lunch and it was a delicious homemade meal by 6pm. Did I mention I also worked a 12 hour day? Vern even said it "Wow,you worked a 9 hour day and still made a delicious dinner? You are amazing!" I love it when I have a happy man with a full tummy :) I have to give him credit though,he put the meatloaf in the oven and steamed broccoli,what a great man! I will be making this a regular habit. 1 day of cooking = 8 effortless,budget friendly, homemade meals,I'm hooked!

Tomorrow is the big day..Trevor is 18!! I am so excited to go to the zoo! I really,really hope that they (Trevor and his girlfriend Shelby) don't change their minds and decide not to go...I would be secretly crushed! There is also an aquarium and flower gardens at the zoo too! Oh and I want to ride a camel! My 4G memory card in my camera will come in handy tomorrow! haha Listen to me-geesh! Who's birthday is it?! LOL! Although....Vern and I have reason to celebrate too! We are officially done with all financial and legal matters with both of our ex's!!!! Yay! Ironically enough I had a friend request from my ex husband on Myspace this evening. Somewhere between realizing who had sent it and the decline button I saw he had added a little note asking about the dog...how nice. How many times must you tell someone to go away? I thought the timing was a little humorous though.

Something strange happen in my fridge.So strange I am willing to admit it on the internet. We had a few cloves and bunches of garlic in a plastic sandwich baggie in the fridge. I think they had been forgotten about 6 months ago. I noticed tonight they sprouted green starts!
In a baggie.
In the dark cold fridge.
Weird!
So I took them out and set them in a shallow dish of water in the windowsill. We'll see what happens. I didn't plan on growing garlic in August! I don't even know how! Sounds like another "Google"project.....
