Weekend

When you live in a house of all Dudes, you learn to go with the flow. Case in point, I don't worry that my Dudes behead, de-arm, and reassemble Lego people. They put the heads and arms in neat orderly piles! Don't you love Santa Yoda---

Resident Teenager had a swim meet on Saturday (he shaved 4 seconds off his time); he left at 7am and got home at about 5:30. Resident Teenager usually watches Resident Little Dude while The Hubs and I go out for breakfast. So, by default Resident Little Dude gets a breakfast out on swim meet Saturdays.

The Hubs and I frequent two local places, Buttercup Cafe and Food For Thought. Buttercup is organized, beautiful, and clean--- with a limited yet delicious menu. Food For Thought is well--- a college hang-out with huge portions. We chose Food For Thought.

Resident Little Dude challenges himself a la Man vs Food to eat his huge breakfast when he dines at Food For Thought. I can't remember him ordering anything other than cinnamon french toast. Note to self--- get him to expand his choices. Of course he ordered cinnamon french toast. The french toast is HUGE! It also comes with a side order of breakfast potatoes. He eats the entire entree!!! "In the battle of Cinnamon French Toast vs kid--- Kid WINS!" he says with added fist pump for emphasis.

We made it to Costco by 9:30am. Saturday at Costco sucks, but if I can manage to get there early I don't want to run people over--- which is a good thing. I must say, Costco was the most calm it has been in a month! Holiday let down!!

Target stop by 10:15--- also eerily calm. The lady in front of us hit the after Christmas aisle! Her cart was full, she had a 7.5 ft tree in a box and a toddler--- displaced from the cart! I had ant-aging cream and replacement gloves for Resident Little Dude. I am thrilling!

Next stop Good Food Store for fruit, veg, and possibly two bottles of wine....

Home again home again to unload and watch football and Dude TV.

The commercials on Dude TV are so bizarre: Forever Lazy (adult leisure suit mates with fleece jim-jams), erectile dysfunction medicine, and the latest in male catheters--- delicate on sensitive skin, yet the commercial never says penis... highly informative!

We are all still in detox/denial from the holiday break. This week starts a full school/work week. I have to go to the dentist--- and the airbag light came on in my car--- Ugghh! So, I soothe the Dudes with Sunday breakfast because that is what I do!

A veggie omelette soothes the soul.
