Three blog postings in one day...

Like I said I've been a little behind on posts. So yes today, May 11th, I have posted three blogs. I wanted to do all of these today because tomorrow, Jeff and I will be heading out to Charlotte to see some of his family before we leave for Conneticut and New York. I'm sooo excited!!

Yesterday was truly one of those days where Jeff and I just wanted to stay at home and do NOTHING!!! Let me tell you. It was just what we needed.

We had a little Gallo Pinto for lunch
The veggies all diced up
Heat up some oil
Rinsing out the beans. 
We were suppose to use black beans but we were out.
So we improvised. 
Coffee beans
Grinding the beans
Put the ground stuff in the french press and then add hot water.
Back to the gallo pinto
Attempting to flip the veggies in the pan
Jeff's chef-like skills
Spices
Grind them up
Add the spices and add cooked, medium grain rice to the mixture
Add the beans
Oh yeah
In a separate pan Jeff fried two eggs
Kitchen master
The final product
Ohhh yeahhhh
We had lunch in bed (get your head out of the gutter!)
Coffee magic
For dinner we decided to have homemade pizza :)
The dough, made from scratch
Man and his creation
For the sauce
We left the juices from the can out and squeezed the tomatoes in the blender
 Dramatically squeezing the tomatoes
Add some wine
Herbs and garlic powder 
Blended
Thaw out the spinach
Let the dough rise
Slice up some shittake mushrooms
The charizo Jeff got from CT
Our cheese
Pizza before 
Pizza going into the oven
Pizza out of oven
Close up
Jeff seems proud
Amanda likes it
I think Matt likes it too
After pizza, the power went out. 
So yes we make drinks
The four of us... kinda blurry
Couple pics
Awww
It truly was a good night. Good drinks, good food, good people, good conversation, 
what more can you ask.
