Our Married Life

Commercials were boring, although I did like the Corolla one. I didn’t pay much attention to the game other than the end which apparently was the best part. Of course I missed half time. I was actually asleep. After spending much of the day with my parents, I was exhausted.

The day prior, Brian and I went over to World Market and got some furniture. I was only interested in an accent table they had on sale that would fit perfectly in the foyer area. I took pictures, but of course they’re at home. Here’s one from the website.

But while looking at this particular table, we also found an end table that was the perfect size for our game room. So we bought two of those. Brian spent most of Saturday putting the tables together. What a pain in the butt they were.

We also got a pretty iron piece from Pier 1 for our bedroom. The bedroom is almost complete, other than the end table for my side of the bed. I really want one that match, perhaps when we go down to NB next weekend, we can stop by the furniture store and get one, if they still have it in stock.

So much furniture. We still need to fill the other two rooms downstairs. I think we have to wait another year before we can do that.

I’ve always been intrigued by these. They remind me of either the oatmeal cream pie made by Little Debbie or the Moon Pies that Brian claims to taste a bit artificial. The recipe originates from the Pennsylvania Dutch area. But enough with the history. I made them tonight and yet again another easy recipe. Not to mention Brian loved them. I remember coming downstairs and seeing a bite missing off one of the pies sitting on the cooling rack. I know it wasn’t Reesey’s teeth mark. Anyway, I made these as a test for our company bake sale in two weeks. I think these will be a hit. Anyway, click on Epicurious for a better picture. [...]

Today for the Super Bowl, I decided to make something “manly” other than the usual pizza and wings or queso dip. So I decided to try Pioneer Woman’s Marlboro Man’s Favorite Sandwich. The recipe was easy peasy and it turned out super delicious. I did however improvise and used I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter spread instead of actual butter. I also cut down the butter portion to something more reasonable. I just couldn’t get myself to use 2 sticks of real butter for sandwiches. I don’t think I would ever miss it. I served it up with some roasted fingerling potatoes. [...]
