Does the fact that it's soaked in vodka sway your opinion at all?

There used to be a martini bar downtown that MH and I used to go to when we were dating. I loved it. There was someone always playing the piano in there and occasionally they had some singers. My favorite martini came with 6 olives and they were all stuffed with something else. blue cheese, caviar, garlic, I can't remember the rest, but it was amazing.

Remember when you could just go out whenever you felt like it? No planning involved. No babysitters needed.

I sit on this bench with hangry do you like blue cheese? I only like blue cheese in creamy form (that sounds gross I know) where I can dip my pizza in it. But ONLY if there isn't ranch available.

MH has a headache so doesn't want to go out. But the kids are playing nicely on their own so I can actually cook without being screamed at. I'll take it.

Blue cheese smells like a dirty jock strap. And tastes even worse.

And only for dipping my hot wings in. And it has to be house made, I can't do store bought for some reason. I also don't like vodka. Or olives that aren't black. I'm sure no one is surprised at my pickiness.

What's everyone doing tonight ? We have date night but reconsidering our standard dinner out. Need to think of some ideas I gave B the choice of frozen pizza, Chipotle or Chick Fil A. #doingthemost What about a movie? I want to see Home Again with Reese Witherspoon. Do you have a theater around that serves alcohol?

Especially since there was an infant death and he knows I'm still a bit emotional about my miscarriage before H. I reminded him that I just wanted to watch Home Again. lol.

I can't deal with this cheese hate. Y'all must not like it because you haven't paired the correct red wine with it. One of my favorite things to do is try new cheeses with different red wines. Take a bite of cheese and before you swallow it you sip a bit of red. The two combinations can be amazing.

Hi all!
Busy day here; B had school this morning and after quick trips to HD and Home Goods/TJMaxx, I spent a good bit of time dealing with our worthless property mgt. company. I (justifiably, IMO) am done being nice and basically went on the epic rant to end all epic rants. I guess a good old fashioned ass chewing is what was needed bc they made more progress on getting the problems fixed after my call than in the last 3 weeks combined.
Anywho! We had lunch and a play date at our friend's and C missed both naps today so I'm sure she's going to be truly delightful this evening (<--sarcasm). I had wine with lunch and just opened a bottle of my new favorite Sauvignon blanc.
T. G. I. M-F. F.

tgrimes it's Marlborough, from NZ. Really good. I can find it at most grocery stores and Target; Fresh Market carries it but charges several dollars more/bottle than the other places.

kleigh I rofl every time you mention Adoosha. I just can't 😂😂 I picture your MIL as this Polish lady I used to work for in high school. I would babysit her son (who I just realized is probably like 18 now 😳) and his name was Adam but she always called him Adash and it was the same thing--Ahhhh-dash! I'm dying. Yep, that is what they call MH. Adash.

Pre dating MH, I pretty much only drank vodka. #dancerdiet He's the one that turned me on to wine...and food in general. lol. When we go out, I love a good martini pre dinner though.

Hi all! I had a GTG with some friends from the J15 board today. We went to an apple orchard and the kids got to chase each other, it was really cute! H got mandated to work tonight, so we spent some time as a family playing outside and chasing DS around this afternoon.
Blue cheese is definitely not my favorite cheese but it's grown on me. When it's stuffed in an olive and soaked in vodka it's so much better!
