monday blah

What a great weekend! And now it's Monday. Five long, long days to get through.

OK, Friday night I got to have a Mom's Night Out with some of the women from my mom's meetup group. We gorged ourselves on Indian food (I had lamb saag and garlic naan) and then went to see the new Harry Potter movie. Then we went out after the movie to Krispy Kreme for coffee, so we could dissect which crucial bits from the book were left out of the movie.

It was my first Mom's night out in a long time, and it was decadent.

Saturday morning we went on a tour of the Happy Cow Creamery, where we got to see lots of cows, all of whom did, in fact, look quite pleased, if not outright thrilled, probably because none of them were being turned into burgers.

Drew's favorite part was the taste testing. The milk is not pasteurized or homogenized or whatever other -ized processes they do to milk to make it tasteless and watery. Rather, this organic milk is creamy and thick and tastes rather like a milkshake. Obviously, we had to buy a jug of it to take home, and they also had fresh blackberries and this amazingly delicious cheese called Buffalo Wing cheese so of course we had to buy some of that, too.

Sunday we just took it easy - it was pouring rain, so we went to McDonald's for dinner and so Drew could run off some energy on the indoor slides. Then we went to visit my friend Ginger and her boys, who are 3 and 5. At one point, I was talking to her oldest child and inadvertently called him "Darling", at which point Drew jumped to his feet, pointed at me and said, "No Mama! I darling!"
