So yesterday, Adam and I decided to use a coupon we had to have fish fry (well, Adam was going to have the fish fry, I was obviously going to order something else). It was for a restaurant that Adam used to go to all the time when he was younger, and I had never been there. So we went there, and who should we see but Adam's aunt and her husband! They had just ordered, so we sat with them and ate with them. About a half hour later, Adam's dad, step-mom, and brother came in! Welcome to small-town Wisconsin! We thought we were going out to dinner - little did we know that we were actually going to a family reunion! It was nice to see everyone, though.
Just so my readers know, I will be on vacation this week. So don't expect any posts until maybe this weekend. We will be in Florida tomorrow through Friday. Orlando, here we come!! :)

Adventures in Pressure Cooking
Brown Rice - check
Pinto Beans (for refried beans) - check (I used too much water, but that will be modified next time)
Beef Broth - check (very tasty with the pot roast I made!)
Chicken Broth - check check (although the second time was not as chickeny as I'd like...once again, I used too much water, I think)
...yep I think that's all I've made so far. More adventures to come. I'd like to make potato soup. Or just red potatoes. I decided that I really really like red potatoes.
Sorry my adventures are not all that exciting. But at least I'm getting more comfortable with the PC! This way, by the time we have people over for dinner (as infrequently as that is), I should be a real pro with the PC :)
Olive Garden tonight with Michelle and Popp! When I met Adam, he did not like Olive Garden. He'd had one experience that tainted his view of it. But when I got the job I have now (it was a promotion from where I was), he said we could go anywhere I wanted to celebrate... so I picked Olive Garden. He whined and complained and tried to convince me to go somewhere else, but I stood firm. We went... and he LOVED it! Now it's one of our favorites :) So we're definitely looking forward to dinner tonight. Note to self: eat a light lunch!
