I wish I could remember what the slogan was. But I saw an ad on the back of a bus this morning for Lube World. Because of the window, the first word that jumped out at me was "wildo."
I am exhausted again today. I think I am going to try for the next two weeks, starting Monday to force myself to just stay home, get a good night's rest and get in my exercise. I feel lethargic and fat these days. And I will meal plan, too! Last night I rushed home and made my quick dinner: steak, broccoli stir fry and leftover (instant) mashed potatoes. The steak was overdone, but thankfully the meat made it bearable. My stirfry was just a touch too salty, but it still reminded me of my mom's :D
We went to the home show last night. I wasn't expecting to buy much -- not that I wanted to. But I ended up with a purse and a bamix mixer. Right now, I'm sooo excited about the mixer. I can't wait to use it, so I can make sauces and spreads, at least. It cost a pretty penny, but I think I would save money on food in the long run, and I'd be eating more natural stuff.
I mean I can get 2 cups of whipped "cream" from 1/4 c o skimmed milk!! Mmm, it was heavenly!! There weren't that many people at the booth (closing time at the end of the first day on a Thursday night), so we got lots of samples: whipped cream, ice cream, peanut/cashew butter, tomato soup, mayo, pesto dressing.
While we were watching the demo, there were a couple of random people coming up and raving about the mixer. Who knows if they were planted there or not. But there was this really loud man beside me yelling how great those mixers were. I asked him how long he'd had his, and I think he said for years, and then he said something about not having an arm. I guess he didn't have one...I didn't look for a lack of a hand hanging out his sleeve, but he gave me the impression that even a one-armed man could use one of those mixers.
I finally got a reply back from the pageant girl that I ran to at the networking thing a couple of weeks back. Turns out a couple of days after she saw me, she found out there is some pageant reunion coming up in April. It's so weird how you run into people. I think the universe works in mysterious ways.
