Terry is back! After almost two months of flying back and forth from Florida, working 12-16 hour days, and almost never getting a chance to talk to me, my husband has made his return to not-so-sunny LA. And boy, did I have some awesome plans in store for this rainy Monday.
Since today is a grading day at our school, we squeezed in a workout (20 minutes on the elliptical plus some bicep curls and lat pull downs), and I convinced Terry to try an egg, cheese, and jelly
biscuit sandwich.
|
He was skeptical at first, but... |
|
It was a winner! |
Terry joined me in my classroom today while I graded and he read
Game of Thrones (which, by the way, he recommends to Tolkien fans, fantasy readers, or people who like the HBO show). Afterward, I asked to stop at Bed, Bath & Beyond for some new food storage containers.
|
Terry helped me calculate the best combination for our money. |
|
I love OXO containers!!! (Too much? Perhaps.) |
|
It was really a gorgeous day whenever it stopped raining. |
|
San Marino - one of my favorite So Cal cities, because Father of the Bride was filmed there and the neighborhoods are just awesome. |
Then we met up with Terry's parents for dinner at our favorite sushi restaurant in Pasadena.
|
Edamame appetizer |
|
Spider roll |
On our way home, I suggested some ice cream, and we wound up picking up a couple pints of Ben & Jerry's for dessert. Boy, does Terry regret this decision. Ralph's announced a free gift for shoppers, so of course I had to check it out. One infomercial-style presentation later, I scored a knife set for an extra-special price with one-time-only free gifts! Can you
believe that?! (Terry says I need to confess that I have a serious love of infomercials. Getting to see one live may have been one of the greatest things I've ever experienced in a grocery store.)
|
Plus we got a strange little juicer/apple corer that I'm stoked to try! |
Not bad for a Monday, right? I'm so thrilled to have my husband home and must leave you now to get back to catching up on our TV shows and cuddle time.
