My favorite meal of the day has got to be dinner.. it's always the biggest (though it's not supposed to be) but also the most savory. We spend so much more time on dinner than the other meals of the day.
On Tuesday evening we headed up to York to visit our friends Jim and Mark and spend some time with their mom, Mrs. T.. she makes the BEST food. The last time we were up she made delicious enchiladas.. Jim made homemade guacamole (awesome) and it was just a perfect meal. On tuesday she made us pork tenderloin on the grill with a potato/onion mixture (also grilled) as well as the best zucchini bread i've ever eaten and a greek veggie bruschetta (basically). Some fantastic spaghetti squash and corn on the cob. It was so great! Alex and I never make that much food since we're only cooking for us, but it makes me happy that some day we can make big elaborate meals for our family and guests! Everything was so well timed and yummy.. timing is really important to me when it comes to food. Alex could eat each side dish as a separate portion but I love sitting down to everything being hot and ready at the same time.
Needless to say i love home cooked meals made by others. The company (as always) was fantastic and we just had a wonderful time. Oddly, it kind of felt like a family dinner.. it was that comfortable. Can't wait to do it again, but maybe have the T's up to our place for us to make an elaborate meal! MMMM.. i can just taste it!

Who doesn't love fridays??
Thank goodness it's friday. I think i say that every friday, but really.. tgif. I wait for this day all week (starting on monday of course).. and when it gets here, i work really hard so that the hours fly by and then all of a sudden it's 5 pm and i'm FREEE! Hopefully one day (probably later in life) I'll enjoy the entire week and not work for the weekend.
Last night was probably the hardest I've laughed in about 6 months.. that may sound sad, but really, i do laugh all the time but just not as hard as last night. Alex and I took a trip to York to see Jim, Mark and of course, the Mr. & Mrs. It was so much fun. First of all, I hadn't seen Jim in forever.. and he's just so hilarious that forever is just too long. Secondly, Mrs. T makes the BEST food in the whole world and we had the best enchilada's i've ever had in my life.. after we had Jim's homemade guac of course which was way better then Alex and mine usually turns out. We'll have to get his recipe. Most of the night I spent laughing, pretty much.. Jim and Mark together is just priceless and they'll make you laugh no matter what. So glad we were invited for dinner.. mmm, man it was good!
In other news, yesterday, after seeing so many FML (f*** my life) postings on facebook.. i kept wondering, man do these people really hate their lives that much?? Well now I think I get it. I somehow (ok, through twitter) came across a website called fmylife.com which is bascially, FML. On the site people post stuff that happens to them, that's basically terrible but hilarious and at the end of each one it says FML. I'm pretty sure i'm catching on reallly late to this, but better late then never because yesterday at work I laughed outloud about 15 times.. i try to hold it in but some of them are just SO funny that a little bit of the laugh slips out. It's kinda like sometimes when you have to fart but it's not an apporpriate time, but a little bit forces its way out.. like that, but not gross. (Sidenote.. i actually sat here for a minute wondering if i should post that last comment.. the one about the fart.. but i think it's a good analogy, so it's been posted) Anyway, check out that site because you'll laugh outloud!
Big weekend ahead which I already outlined in a previous post.. pretty excited for it! Have a GREAT weekend!
