The husband is out of town. He's gone for a few days to Maryland for a "bachelor getaway" for one of his childhood friend who is getting married next month. Even though I think my husband is the bee's freaking knees, it's always refreshing to have an entire house to yourself for a few days. You and the dog can take up the whole bed without driving someone crazy. You can read in bed with the light on and not be worried that you're keeping someone awake. If you want, you can eat cereal for dinner and watch bad TV without incurring judgement or harassment over your choice of viewing material. But instead of eating cereal for dinner, I went all out and made myself some tomato miso using this recipe. You see, the husband won't eat sea food or Asian food of any kind. (Don't ask how I ended up married to a man who hates seafood and Bob Dylan. But rest assured that he has other very redeeming qualities.)
Tonight I'll be broiling some shrimp.
William, have a safe trip. I'll see you on Thursday after I've eaten all of the Asian food and shrimp my belly can handle. I'll be happy to have you back. xo.
No seafood OR Asian food? Dealbreaker. Have fun this week!
ReplyDeleteYou have known William for 4 years now. Surely you already knew such things.
DeleteNaurnie-time, excellent! (to be sung like this, obvs.)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean - I'm always bummed when Brian is going out of town and then once he's gone I'm like "OMG I'm going to make whatever I want for dinner! And watch the girliest TV I can stand!"
ReplyDeleteAlso, your William is totally missing out. I mean lots of people don't love seafood, but Asian flavors are SO GOOD ON EVERYTHING
Whenever Kiwi is gone I totally binge on mindless, reality television. The home alone euphoria usually lasts about 24 hours then I'm ready for him to come back :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, that tomato miso sounds amazing.
