Nobody wants the black girl...

We have sold all the puppies but one. The last one was promised off, but the guy reneged at the last minute. So now, here I am with the puppy at 7 weeks old and I've got to do something with her. Hopefully she'll sell in the next week. I don't really want to house-train another dog...

Here's a picture of the bacon quilted meatloaf I made last week. It smelled deliscious. I've got to work on the meatloaf part a little bit more, though...

Realizing I'm Back Home

So I decided to make a nice meal for tonight. Meatloaf, garlic mashed potatoes, corn, green beans, and wilted spinach salad. We're having a few people over, not just eating this all by ourselves.

For those that know me, know that I'm not a huge meatloaf fan. However, that nice man I live with has been requesting it for some time. So I decided to aquiesce. Since I'm not a meatloaf kind of girl, I decided a good choice would be to put a bacon quilt/weave on top/around the meatloaf. Everything's better with bacon, afterall. However, I had already bought all the ingredients (other than the bacon) earlier today at the grocery store. So I had to make a second trip just for the bacon. The first trip, I had all sorts of healthy food items in my cart and didn't run into a single person I knew in the very crowded Publix. The second trip, now known as The Bacon Trip, I ran into three people I knew, as soon as the bacon was in my possession.

Only in my world would I run into a ton of people looking like the fat kid I am. Now that I have three packets of bacon safely in my possession, time to make a bacon weave!

The Puppies Are Here!

Tallulah gave birth this morning to six beautiful puppies!

I am terrible about remembering to update. I'm currently working on a baby blanket for a friend made out of mitered squares with self-striping sock yarn. We'll see how it turns out. Hopefully I'll remember to take a picture. My goal is to get the blanket finished I go see the friend next week. Luckily, the layover in Chicago is like 3 hours...

In other news, I plan on tricking my husband intro trying some homemade ice cream.

I went to a friend's wedding yesterday. Their first date was our wedding three years ago, so it was a nice way to spend our anniversary weekend. The friend and I met in college when we lived in the same dorm. I got to see a lot of people we used to live with in said dorm. One of the former dormmates asked me what I'm up to these days. I told him I'm an Army Wife now and I do what I want.
