God is so GOOD...thanks for popcorn!
I've been in CA since Tuesday night (got here super late, didn't leave AZ until after 6).
Yesterday, Taylor and I had the WHOLE day together to do what ever we wanted....hehehe.
We went to Red Robin for lunch...(DON'T EVER look at their "nutritional menu"...it'll make you sick) and then we made the trip to the outlet mall that is 20 minutes west of here. I had been before with my friend Jen, but it was Taylor's first time:) We started at the Puma store where Taylor found some sweet shoes, a sweater, and a golf shirt...I found an AWESOME Columbia Jacket for $30 bucks. It is some kind of goretex fabric or something. Not heavy duty, but warmer than a windbreaker.......ashamed to admit I wore it most of the day. It was 70, breezy and overcast and I was FREEZING without it! We made those two purchases around noon and shopped until after 3, but didn't find anything else...amazing, I know. We tried to get ice cream (taylor's request... i was still freezing) at McDonald's on the way home, but the sign on the speaker said "Sorry, no ice cream or shakes". While we were backing out of the line, I commented that someone should have put a sign on the entrance...wouldn't you know, there it was!! OOOPS! I seem to recall the same McD's not having a chocolate ice cream for Jen last time we were there....
Anyway, ice cream craving unresolved....we stopped at the grocery store on the way home. I've been trying to get back to my Type A diet most of the time, so when Taylor asked for taco salad...i suggested chicken taco salad. They turned out ok, but I don't think I've won him over to the wonders of ground chicken....
Taylor enjoyed his chocolate ice cream for dessert, and I made marshmallow popcorn again. It was quite difficult in the small kitchen of the condo, without my ginormous tupperware bowl to mix it in....i dirtied up a few bowls....but it got the job done! It was wonderful, except for the piece of popcorn that got stuck in my back tooth....tired everything to get it out, but Taylor was out of floss! I finally found a tiny bit of floss in his dobb kit and got that sucker out this morning!
Now, I'm just waiting for Taylor to come pick me up for some kind of meeting....hmmmm....guess it will be an adventure. What a beauiful day in CA!
