10 Things I Learned This Weekend

1) Done right, I like a good gourmet French Onion soup.

2) Bacon goes with just about anything - even cupcakes.

3) I make an awesome flamingo (as in 'impression', not as in 'cooking' it).

4) Cheetos are a great appetizer.

5) There are many ways to cut up a lobster tail.

6) Never cheat on your fake, simulated husband in a video game.

7) I apparently do a great imitation of 'stupid' - not sure what that says about me.

8) I can be genuinely concerned when a friend has an accident with a side-table - and laugh hysterically until I cry, both at the same time.

9) Many, many people don't think there is anything wrong with tinkling in the shower.

10) Its OK to take some time for myself, away from the family, and let my husband handle things alone.



And 3 Things I Forgot:

1) I forgot how much I love riding onto the city bridges at night, in a fog, mist or rain. Awesome and beautiful.

2) I forgot what it felt like to laugh until your throat was scratchy, your sides hurt and you couldn't breathe.

3) I forgot what it felt like to do something fun without worrying about your kid or feeling guilty the whole time.
