Tonight we're having a Roll Your Own dinner. Roll your own Sushi, that is. I love making that joke. Maybe it's getting old...
And the Little Boy was happy to entertain himself a lot this morning with only a little help from Mama now and then, so I have almost all the slicing and prep work done! YEE HAW!
Thursday nights here are great. It's often Sushi night. Our good friend (who introduced my husband and I and who's been my friend for 10 years) comes over and we eat sushi until we nearly pop and then we watch 30 Rock and the Office while drinking decaf coffee brewed so strong it almost needs to be chewed. Sometimes there's dessert in the mix, but not always. If she doesn't come here, then she and I go out and have sushi somewhere (Downtown is our fave) and Daddy watches the boy so the Girls can catch up. Then we come home to her house or ours and watch 30 Rock and The Office. And laugh our heads off.
I gave the Little Boy a haircut the other day. He looks so stinkin' cute I can't stand it! If I do say so myself I think I did a pretty good job. I did it while he was watching Teletubbies, and keeping the scissors out of his line of sight. It took about 30 minutes... and a lot of patience, but we're good on the haircut for now.
Speaking of Quinoa, (which we weren't) have you tried it? You gotta. If you want, ask me for the recipe, there's a great salad a friend invented, and I'm serving it along with the sushi tonight. Martha highlighted it on her show the other day (yes, I'm a closet Martha Stewart fan) and she says it has 8 amino acids! Who needs fish, when one can munch their way to perfect health (or maybe not) on quinoa! (Pronounced Keen-wa)
The above picture is one of the mini salads I made for tonight.... SO CUTE, don't you think? (tomatoes on the side, since Husband hates them and the rest of us love them!)

The salads do look cute!
Is the boy a year old? Legendary lore from my rural ancestors dictates the the child should be a year old before his first haircut...or he will be a thief when he grows up (I am not sure about that last part). Of course, the rural lore also dictates that you cut the hair on the waning of the moon so it won't grow back so fast.
Just felt compelled to share that with you--pay me no mind!
