What a quiet weekend! 

I had to work yesterday (that time of year, sort of like how retail is at the holidays I guess) for a few hours.  I came home and did a steam cleaning of all of the downstairs floors.  Again.  Arlo and Steve went and picked up the baby's bookshelf.  It's nice to get stuff done.  Steve made a little gazebo area in the backyard and it's been nice to go outside and read.  He has been working on the small yard quite a bit.  His goal is to have the grill covered enough so that we can grill throughout the fall/winter.  It doesn't really snow here, so I guess that makes sense.  And I certainly enjoy it. 

Off to Tori's today to visit with her daughter and meet her family.  I've been looking forward to this all week :) 

I think that the Food Network finally has a new cooking show that is actually good.  The host is the sous chef of Mario Batali on Iron Chef America.  It's called Secrets of a Restaurant Chef and it is pretty good.  The host, Ann, is sort of annoying but it had a few good tips in it.

We finished some more Obama t-shirts and I'm looking forward to sending in our next campaign contribution check.  I found the letter that my mother wrote to Howard Dean and am wondering if it is inevitable to go bat shit crazy.  Seriously, the craziest letter ever.  She was a huge Clinton supporter and hates Obama.  Her new target is Howard Dean.  Ugh.  So much I could say about this issue. 

Have a fantastic weekend!!!
