I can think of 1000 reasons why I should be blogging right now.
Number 1... I finished week 5 of REVELATIONS and let me just say. OH MY WORD!!!
It got even better.
Another reason is that I simply have let too much time go by since I have chatted with you and said hello...
But in less than 24 hours I will be having family come down and visit us in our Little Red House...
And right now our Little Red House is a DISASTROUS MESS!
Am I exaggerating??
See for yourself...
Words can't explain this kitchen. What happened? In my desperate defense. I did go food shopping and y'all know what that does to my day...
I think it started when a certain no named child of mine spilled baby rice cereal all over my counters..
Right there, I knew it was one of those days...
Sadly the mess spread to my Master bedroom and bathroom. The walls have seemed to close in as the mess spreads all around. Also please don't tell hubby I left the light to our water room on once again. He HATES when I do that and for some reason I CAN'T STOP.
Whats a water room?? You mean you don't have one?? Just kidding. It was all new to me before I moved to the south. These rooms just don't exist in the north...
But now I know that I must never ever NOT have one. Its essential.. like air!
Its a separate room where our toilet is. That way Hubs can be in our bathroom getting ready, dressing and showering and I can use the toilet without having to wait till he is done. Pretty nifty huh??!! I think so. Although Im getting a bit spoiled and am starting to think our master bath and walk in closet is too small. Perhaps I need to visit the house I used to live in...
NOT!
But on a brighter note... I got to go food shopping ALONE! (thats not the bright note) But during my carefree stroll down aisle 4 I noticed this!!!!!
Just thee most DIVINE Italian delicacy I can think of (thats NOT sweet). I have looked all over and could not find this in the south...
I was ready to go to Italy just to import some good ol Italians in the South...
But I have Michelle... so thats a start ;)
JUST KIDDING Michelle...
But I can kid like that because I grew up in a very Sicilian family...
Even though I don't look it.
Anywho...
This stuff rocks my world and I will be stuffing my face eating it all night long...
See you soon my friends...
I have soooo much more to share.
Xoxo

If it's any consolation to you, your mess looks like my clean. :) Hey, and I'm glad to now know what a water room is...never heard of it before. Of course I'm a Northern gal.
ReplyDeleteyou are too funny!! we eat caponata all the time! it's so easy to make..and I don't use a lot of oil, so it's a little healthier ;-)
ReplyDeleteI Love the idea of a water room!!!
hey Gigi- messes are quite common around here too- I am reading a short devotional on Martha and Mary- this has helped to realize I need a balance, I was too much of a Martha, and God has shown me to enjoy my kids each day, taking time to look into there eyes, cuddling and allowing messes- but of course- you already know that- miss ya- enjoy ur family!
