How early is too early for Pina Coladas?

Byheathertheblogger February 22, 2013

I open up the freezer, seeking concentrated orange juice. I’ve got a brutal cold and my body is craving the vitamin C. I am Stanley, looking for my Livingstone. This is one of those real adventures into the freezer. I lift things up. Sole filets from 2010, Freezies from when we moved to this house, freezer-burned mixed veggies… No orange juice. So I’m phlegmy AND there’s no orange juice.

But there are a couple of frozen pina colada mixes… 7:03 a.m. Too early for pina coladas? I look at the caloric value – if I don’t eat any actual food for the next 12 hours, I should be okay. Plus the rum might just take the edge off my cold.

You ever have one of those mornings??

The countertop is my nemesis…

Rage, all-encompassing RAGE. Because why? Because David left the peanut butter and honey out on the countertop. All-encompassing rage with a side of dockworker swearing. Because why? Because there are crumbs on the countertop. All-encompassing rage and swearing with a side of growling and hiccuping sobs. Because why? Because there are not one, not two,…

Did you know that to get new countertops you have to purchase entirely new base cabinets upon which you can place said countertops? It doesn’t seem logical to me. I mean, when you’ve got cabinets… …FUNCTIONING… underneath the countertops, surely I can remove the existing countertops, attach the new ones, et voilà! BRAND NEW KITCHEN!!! Now perhaps…

This is a sarcastic dance. You know what I’m talking about ladies. It’s awesome, right? You’re sitting at the computer before bed, trying to get some work done or at least check in on the state of the universe. You’re in some sort of nightie/chemise/tank top – sans bra – because wearing a bra in…

My OCD knows no bounds

During renovations, in a desperate attempt to control the visual chaos of my environment, I’ve lost my mind. I’ve gone round the bend folks. My obsession this week? Ensuring that, when I open the shower curtain, all the shampoo, conditioner and body wash bottles complement one another. Hello Ma’am, we’ve got a lovely little jacket…

Behold the waffle iron! The best laid plans and all that… It’s the pumpkin’s fault. I had 3/4 of a can of leftover pumpkin in the fridge that I had to use up before it turned into a science experiment. You know the kind of experiments I’m talking about… Where a day in the…

I’m not a ‘half-measures’ kind of gal. If I’m doing something, it’s usually at full tilt. I’m very ‘event oriented.’ I go on a blitz right up until an event starts. One year for Rissa’s birthday party, my Mom couldn’t believe that I was sewing slipcovers for the our patio cushions 5 minutes before arrival…
