Calling an audible

by Nicole on November 7, 2010

Danny came up with the title of this post. I had to ask him to explain it about ten times before I actually liked the idea. I still may have no idea why, but it means to change it up…like in football*….or so he tells me. *I had baseball written….he had to correct me again. Is it that funny Danny?

We had this really nice dinner planned for tonight. We planned it at about 9 am this morning…when we usually plan our dinners. Is that weird? I decided I was going to make pumpkin gnocchi because it’s been too long…like a year too long. It was decided. It was set.

Then I baked some apple pie muffins. and I baked pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Oh yea, then there were the peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and um…my lunch for the week. After that I decided to do an hour and a half of yoga…because obviously I had the time. Then after a shower and a stop at my favorite coffee shop we did some laundry at my moms.

Our day wasn’t eventful enough when we went to visit my Aunt Millie (age 94) and she wasn’t home/answering her door/with any other family member/not at the stores she usually visits.  Fast forward 2 hours later, many miles driven in the car, we were seconds away from breaking a window when she decided to wake up from her nap. Yep.

Two more loads of laundry at my mom’s later we were home and it was 6. Gnocchi has to wait. Pizza bites do not.

Pizza Bites and a Grilled Cheese

My random salad

I made myself a (very random) salad to go with the pizza bites. It consisted of sunny side up egg, carrots, tomatoes and balsamic portobello mushrooms. Danny thought he was going to have them all to himself. He thought very wrong.

And that is how we called an audible.
