1. I was thinking to myself just yesterday that I really need a sewing machine. I could make those cute little blankets with fun fabrics and ribbon taggies for babies and have their names embroidered on them.
2. I want to go back to school and have a completely different career. I've been thinking nutrition off and on. (thanks, Mary, for the inspiration!)
3. I want to create an invitation design store on etsy.
4. I want to be one of those moms who has a different craft or fun activity scheduled for their children everyday with no TV watching scheduled in.
WHAT THE HECK??
So since I don't have time for any of that, I do have a few minutes to spare before I pick up my son from camp, which I totally forgot about yesterday. (Not picking up my son...just forgot to take him to begin with!)
I have lots to report since we experienced quite a few of my favorite things in the past week. Thursday night was our anniversary and we went to one of my favorite restaurants in Williamsburg – Blue Talon (remember the place with the awesome Illy coffee?). In addition to a great wait staff and atmosphere, Blue Talon serves up some yummy French-country cuisine. I had their Thursday night special of Boeuf Bourguignon. I sound so fancy when I say it. Served in a miniature cast-iron pot, the meat, onions, and mushrooms swam in a red-wine sauce that I could have slurped up with a straw. It was so good paired with a nice Malbec. Jason got a very handsome piece of New York Strip overtop a lentil tomato salad. To end our meal, we enjoyed a free glass of champagne to toast our decade together and a very full bowl of heaven - chocolate mousse. This is the best chocolate mousse ever and I think I can die happy after eating it. Its very rich yet you can eat a lot of it because it's so light. Is that an oxymoron? Anyway, it's awesome.
Some of you might be asking, "I thought Café Provencal was your favorite place in Williamsburg." Well, I guess I have two favorites!
Having a sewing machine around just reminds you of all the time you're spending not using it! Oh, and does blogger have a post scheduler? Wordpress has one & it's great - you can do all your posts at once and schedule them to show up one at a time which makes you look like you're blogging regularly.
