my weekend

ugh!  we have not had internet since saturday.  dang you, cable company which shall remain nameless!  we're back up and running now though after josh made his trip to pick up a new modem.  take that!

anyway, i did have a productive weekend.  sort of.  after a successful trip to macy's on saturday i got to work.  btw, i did pick up a new skillet for $12.99.  yes, you heard me.  $12.99.  12 inch skillet.  $12.99.  stainless steel.  you really have to love a macy's one day sale.  and i didn't even have to go to the crazy macy's in manhattan.  BK all the way!  i digress... i got home and made this:


blueberry upside down cake.  i got the recipe from Thibeault's Table.  delicious and super duper easy.  really.  i couldn't believe it.  i brought some over to my best friend kerry's house and gave some to her 3 year old.  she promptly ate a piece in about 2 minutes flat and said, "mmm... delicious, auntie gina."  so, there ya go.  i got that going for me, which is nice.

sunday was a bit of a different story.  i had so much planned on sunday, but after walking around in the humidity for all of 10 minutes i wanted my living room.  we go home, turn on the tv and see that there's a cary grant marathon on tcm.  holy awesome sauce!  we watched two movies (the philadelphia story and north by northwest.  both of which my josh had never seen!)  it was awesome and we had a great time being lazy.  and this was the icing on the cake:


that's our boo radley sleeping on the couch.  the special thing about this is that she never, ever, ever sits next to us.  she plays hard to get constantly and this came out of nowhere.  we were on cloud 9!

and to end, i'll leave you with tonight's dinner.  i got this recipe from the kitchn.  this was seriously tasty and we made two pies saving one for tomorrow.  yay!
