That is a GREAT idea!!!!
About your tooth- what!? They now have to take the cap off, do the root canal, and don't tell me you have to get a new cap!?
You know, now that I am getting deeper into black metal I have a new respect for drummers!
to your DH!
Either that or we are all just too darned busy. I've been doing some house cleaning and made another batch of pesto to freeze. My tomatoes are finally coming in in full force so I'm going to have to do something soon with them. My DD eats the cherry ones like crazy. She had one in each cheek earlier and looked like a chipmunk.
Even if I had $3000 for a pair of shoes, I still wouldn't be interested in looking at pictures of them. I also had a strange one the other day. It was a detergent sample but was in a brown paper wrapping and then wrapped in plastic wrap. It had a big stain like the detergent had leaked and smelled like detergent but when I opened it the sample was fine. Not sure what happened.
Must be a slow day in Freapland.
Freebies have been coming in pretty good. I've gotten lots of feminine products, another beach towel in DH's name and TONS of magazines. I started feeling guilty about all that paper(even though I recycle it) so I'm finding people to pass them on to. A guy I work with is getting the Spin and Blender. I actually cancelled the Lucky magazine after trying to read it on the treadmill the other day. What a waste of time.
Alesia-I love the hat and think your pricing is right on!
He used to brace himself.
I canceled my subscription too.
But when I have some extra tomatoes, I like to chunk them up, lay them out on a cookie sheet with a bunch of garlic cloves and chopped up onions- drizzle some olive oil over everything and roast it all up at 500 degrees! 
, but that would be good too) put it all in a large bowl, drizzle the olive oil over it and just let it sit- then toss it over pasta
I plan to make and can a bunch of spaghetti and pizza sauce but I don't have enough yet to get into that big of a project.
Ooh. I love roasted tomatoes like that. Do you peel them first? It just so happens that DH dug up my garlic the other day so I have a ton of that right now. Also, wonder if I could make a bunch and then freeze it?
As for the Lucky magazine, I'm just sooo not into fashion. If my t-shirt is clean and doesn't have too many holes I feel like I'm high falutin.
I am sure you are a beautiful "garden goddess"
The skins never seems to be a problem. I do not feel like blanching them (isn't that how you are supposed to take the skins off??) You love doing those things- so, if I were you, go ahead and peel them!

I guess it was as much for community exposure/ recruitment as much as for the $$, and in that way it was very successful, but I am beat. Today I'm just gonna

Today I have a ton of work to do. Luckily my ankle is healing nicely. I don't think I'm quite ready to run so I'm going to give it another week just in case. Which means I have more time to squirrel away food for winter. Today I'm making blackberry jam and have absolutely got to pick beans and do something with them. I got up with DS around 4:00 am and picked the kitty up to move him and noticed he was all crusty feeling. I was half asleep so didn't think too much about it until I got up this morning. I thought he had stuff coming out his ear and was all panicked wondering how fast I could get him into the vet. Then I went downstairs and saw little gooey paw prints all the way down leading to DH's homebrew he made yesterday. He had a blowout on both carboys and there is sticky, gooey beery goodness dripping down the sides. It won't hurt the beer, it just means that the yeast is working VERY well. But, now I have to give kitty a bath today as well. That should be great fun-NOT!!!!!

Kitty and bath in the same sentence scares the bejeezus out of me! I remember when our cats were young we would TRY to give them a bath It took 2 of us. At one point I started wearing the rubber gloves you use to wash dishes to hold the kitty and mom would lather her up. After getting soaked and all scratched up from her nails- we finally gave up doing it! They do a fine job of bathing themselves! 
Madd - happy belated bday!
Kitty and bath in the same sentence - yikes!
Not an exciting weekend here. Got a babysitter and went out to a cool grown-up dinner, which was awesome.
And if I did this right, here's kitty skywalker:
