Tapas or a sweaty walk around the block? Tapas. Definitely Tapas.

Didn't go walking last night. Instead, undoing all our "good works" of the past 2 days, Baby G and I made a tapas-style dinner. Yum! Sauteed shrimp, sliced harvarti dill cheese, toasted french bread, pesto, green olives, chunks of colby jack cheese, and tomato slices were stacked together to form a more perfect union...in my mouth. I washed it all down with a few frosty cold cans of Schlitz. Or as Baby G likes to say, "Just a kiss of the hops."

We followed dinner by viewing the quarterfinals of The World Series of Pop Culture

Then the power went out, so we lit candles around the house. It was a bit disturbing how quickly the casa warmed in that half hour or so of no electricity. Kinda backs up my theory that there's zero insulation in our digs. Scary.

Lady Booklahver and her man arrive tonight for a weekend visit! I can't wait to see them. I also can't wait to kick their ass at Trivial Pursuit tomorrow night. Bring your gameface, B. That, and your iron stomach because I've been stockpiling wine for this very occasion. Booooyah...

Oh I'm bringing my gameface. Bringing it forever....
And I hope Trivial Pursuit has a section on 1)tools, 2)cars and how to fix them, or 3)geology and other Earth sciences because the man ain't sooo good at trivia but he's damn good at lovin' me! Rawr & TMI!

Ain't it though? We like to call this Buffet Bruscetta. I just had lunch and am quite full, but rereading the description of last night's dinner has made me hungry all over again, painfully so!

(Please excuse me for a Homer Simpson moment...)

tiny, honey, you forgot to mention that we also had as a bruscetta buffet item--none other than--the greatest meat in the whole world: bacon.

Holy crap! how could I forget the bacon?

Sorry, bacon, I won't let you down ever again.
