Here is a blog post that will go out to the syrupy sweet couple that we both love and cherish up in Ottawa..Matt&Mary..............
aka: M&M
I wish Dave and I could be named after my favorite candy....but instead I get called peppermint due obviously to my name and Dave, well... lets just keep calling him D-unit.
Anyway its late and instead of watching more football, I will sit here and eat lemon meringue pie and carefully sink my silver fork into its white foamy & then lemon colored jellied layers.
Aw, serenity.
However, now I can rejoice!
because Seattle has lost and this has made Dave very happy.
So thats great news for all men that I know for some reason.
Mary and I talked tonight about the foamy meringue treat I had hiding in my fridge.
Much more important than some wild Aaron Neville-singing-pigskin-infection.
I said I had the weirdest craving for it after I had read a superior recipe in a new Martha mag.
Martha is my hero baker. Ok and Bonnie Gordon.
But I can't afford any more of her cake classes. Bonnie found my talent and encouraged me to continue, "but it IS an expensive hobby" -she eagerly stated. Sure sure. I hope I show up on her website somewhere....
I thanked Mary for the small conversation, that also included a webcam and Dave's lingerie shot for Matt. Classic tummy footage.
It is great to have amazing friends like M&M. Even though they are far away, we are near due to this crazy WWW. Its great for all of us.
On a healthier note, despite our last night of nachos/chips/pie/pizza binge,
Dave and I FINALLY found a fantastic gym....and joined...they are open 24hours which was the major signing factor! That is great for someone like me who is a night owl, and also a retired ninja and works too late. Dave will kill me after the first week i'm sure! But we all know who will be kicking golf butt in the Spring!
They even have a boxing ring on site. But don't worry, none of that for me.
I am a retired fighter.
I promised myself/my body that there would be no more black and blue and broken stuff!
I'm too old for that damage.
Did I also mention that there is even a physio clinic onsite? yes thats where I will be headed due to the above previous injuries...of karate. Poor knuckles.
So I hope it can serve us both well for the future together....& lets hope for no more smoking DMC!
goodnight and go grab some lemon goodness...Hell! its Sunday.
