Haunted house and cooking fun!
My ex-neighbors showed up again today and wanted to take Sebastian with them tonight to go to a haunted house down near the arena.
The arena is used for all kinds of things year round, but mostly for farm and animal shows, so at Halloween when they fix up the whole grounds for haunted houses and all the various food vendors and games to play, (think state fairs and carnivals) they have to move most of the cattle supplies around or remove them completely to make room.
They actually use the cattle barrier fences to help make the maze-like patterns in the haunted houses.
So anyway, Sebastian is gone to that, he'll be eating with them, and he'll be home around 10pm or so.
Mark didn't want to go, he said he was too tired.
He gets like this every "winter", the cooler air just makes him wickedly tired and drained until he gets used to the weather and the difference in time and daylight hours.
It is dark out when they leave for school, and dark around 7pm every night, so it always feels more night-time-ish than it really is, and it affects him for a couple of weeks.
Dinner tonight is deli-meat sandwiches for Mark and I, and hopefully I can go do some grocery shopping tomorrow to get more food and the food supplies I need to make on my new George Foreman grill to do a product review of.
I tested it out today to make a ham and cheese sandwich for my lunch, and it works awesome!
I love the little grill marks on it, and it tasted so good.
The grill was wicked easy to clean up too.
A little bit of the cheese melted out and onto the grill plates.
Once the grill was cool, I just used the little scraper/spatula things that are included, and the cheese just slid off.
Then I just wiped the plates down with a wet paper towel, and bammo! It looked as good as new, like I didn't even cook on it at all.
I freaking love this new grill and am so excited to show you how awesome it works.
I absolutely love kitchen cooking gadgets, love love love, I would buy every single cooking gadget out there if I could afford them all and had a much larger kitchen, and I have confessed this for eBillme's new shopping confessions contest.
Did you enter it yet?
