Belated

Hellooooo out there!

My mini-blog-vacaciones is over. So I'm going to post a (belated) menu plan and a little news....

Menu Plan for This Week
(Yes, I realize it's Thursday....)

Monday: Hubby's Favorite Dinner
Tuesday: Roasted Chicken Breasts and Fingerling Potatoes, Sauteed Garlic Chard
Wednesday: Homemade Mac & Cheese with Broccoli, Salad (It was National Cheese Lover's Day, after all!)
Thursday: Cashew Chicken
Friday: Shabbat Dinner at our friend James & Eric's House

And the little piece of news that I have to share is that this Friday, I will be doing the first part of the ceremony necessary (beit din) to complete my conversion to Judaism. Woohoo! The second and final part (mikveh) will be completed on February 4th, the day before my birthday. It's been a long and wonderful road, and I am so happy to be taking this step.

So to celebrate, we'll be bringing a loaf of challah and lighting the candles and saying the blessings at our friends James & Eric's house this Friday.

L'chaim!

Your Daily Vomit

I'm so sorry. But this is so gross -- and so prevalent -- that I had to share. Sorry to make you vomit.

Eww. Eww. Eww.

Just another sign from the universe to stay far, far away from nearly all fast food "restaurants" and industrially produced "food."
