traversing the not-so-vast landscape.
'Twas a weekend of epic proportions.
A walk was taken. Much fun was had, to be sure. Downtown we went to buy books, candles, jelly beans, and xmas gifts!
It was ridiculously cold, but sunny and clear.
We were rocking the plaid like no other, trying not to squint with the light so bright in our faces.
The bathroom was deep cleaned. Seth is like a cross between Willie Nelson and a ninja who bleaches things.
He means business.
Even when it's not business time. Yes... we watched A LOT of The Flight of the Conchords. Twelve episodes, to be precise.
This chicken was also serious BUSINESS.
Mix the following:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- a few dashes of pepper
Slather onto chicken breasts, lay uncooked bacon on top. Bake covered at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Drain off any excess cooking juices, then bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes. Broil lightly for 2 minutes or until bacon looks crisp. Serve. Die a happy death because you have now tasted the most delicious chicken on earth.
It also snowed this weekend... if you could even call it snow. It was a sadly pathetic light dusting that was 90% melted by lunch time the next day. Roads were clear... wait for it... wait for it...
Conditions were perfect.

it's funny how even the most obscure view of PT is one I could recognize anywhere and anytime.
Beautiful winter shots.
Yay! Glad your weekend was awesome and involved bacon. I guess the former is nearly guaranteed by the latter.
1. it looks beautiful there.
2. yum
3. the humans are dead. the humans are dead. we used poisonous gasses. and poisoned their asses.
Wow, look at that scenery!
I love you. Jsut discovered your blog. don't know PT, but I lived in Seattle for a while. Congrats on your little boy and the bearded man.
PS - you're not fat, stop it.
customdesigns4ubyan - I know that was probably meant as a compliment, but um... it's not. Fat is simply a descriptive term to describe my appearance in the same way that I am brunette, blue-eyed, and quite short. I don't use it as a pejorative, just a fact. According to the BMI (which is bullhonky science, but don't get me started) I am just shy of "morbidly obese" (unless of course I happen to be retaining water that day or had a big lunch, natch).
By telling me I'm not fat as a compliment you're only perpetuating the bunk idea that fat=negative, thin=positive, when really, both are morally neutral and just simple physical descriptors.
/end rant
Yeah, what to say when someone does the "yer not fat" because they think it's some kind of awesome complement to not be fat? I almost feel sorry for people who get stripped of this ubiquitous so-called compliment (BIGGEST CULPRIT = MY MOM) but then again, they should be stopped!
Alternatives:
1. You are beautiful!
2. Thanks for writing a kick-ass blog and sharing your life with us!
3. Have I mentioned how lovely you are?
Oh and Jasie, you ARE fat.
customdesigns4ubynan I hope you stick around! J.'s blog is lovely. I have it all hooked up to my feed reader so I can stalk her as soon as she posts. :-)
The Flight of The Concords has been big in my house lately. It seems like every time we get together with friends, we somehow end up watching the You Tube video of It's Business Time. Gorgeous photos of your weekend.
Ummm... Chicken with bacon....
