I’ve been overwhelmed by the amount of weekend events and weekday goings on that I haven’t had a chance to mention them here. Life goes on but not without looking back a little…
The Good
Friday afternoon, we visited the Aldredge Gardens in Hoover and snapped a few photos. Daphne was asleep in the car and not in her usual “take my picture” kind of mood.
Saturday morning was spent hiking Ruffner Mountain with my good friend, Ed and his dog Riley. We went early enough were the only people we saw were headed up while we were coming down. Very brisk and relaxing.
Saturday night, Wonderwife and I hit the kitchen to make Mongolian beef on rice. Take THAT P.F. Chang’s!
WW also fired up her bread maker and we devoured warm, fresh rosemary bread.
On Sunday, we enjoyed a super simple recipe and oh so tasty one at that. Italian flank steak and mashed cannellini beans. Yummo!
DVD is learning how to walk. At almost 8 months old. Seriously. We are not prepared for baby-proofing the house. Yet.

DVD is eating baby food a lot more but enjoys sharing it with us even more.
The Bad:
Of course there were downsides to the weekend: the dog refuses to alert us when she needs to go out and uses the foot of the stairs to the basement as her personal toilet. Bad dog!
The heating element in the dryer craps out.
The brakes in one of our cars needs replacing.
The front porch step has a huge crack in it and is separated from the porch.
Up Next:
This upcoming weekend is PACKED for me. News on that is forthcoming.
