That's what I was saying at about 4:53pm as Sean and I were drying and tearing up eight heads of lettuce...it was my swell idea to buy it instead of lovely, prepared salad in a bag in order to save about $15 dollars...oh yeah, the party started at 5:30pm and I still needed to take a shower and straighten my hair.
Besides the lettuce snafu, the party was GREAT. Good food, good neighbors, good champagne, and an altogether good (and thankfully relaxing) time.
The salad dressings went over really well, and now I know how to make eight different kinds of dressing from scratch…I still used a mix to make the Ranch and Italian. My inner Martha and I were pretty proud of the various pitchers from The Container Store and Pier One with their simple little tags.
Today we've been TOTALLY lazy. Sean and I just sat in front of the fireplace in our pajamas, ate a bunch of salad and cleared television shows from the DVR. Mac is with my mom at Disneyland right now. The plan is to go for a walk (since the chocolate fountain and I were buddies last night), take a shower, and head off to Disneyland to meet them just in time for the fireworks. I tell you, sometimes it's a tough life. :)
