My face is turning into a Pizza. It became more evident to me today when Alicia took pictures of me. It’s quite unfortunate. That and my hair dried really funny the last time I washed it and it just looks weird to me.

I made a Red Pepper, Feta Cheese, Roasted Pin Nuts dip last night & a Bacon Spinich dip. The Bacon Spinich dip when like mad. Dario said there wasn’t enough bacon in it. I said there was too much. It took me two hours to make everything but it was worth it and I enjoy it. I’m Italian. I am suppose to offer you way too much home made food when you come over. It’s in my blood.

The Canucks lost but then again they ALWAYS loose when we all get together to watch the game. We jinx them. We get so excited to finally all get together and eat food and watch them game and then they flush it down the toilet for us. Not cool.

It was nice to finally get together with Sonia, Juliana, & Darren though. We don’t see them enough. I think we might crash there football party this Saturday.

I think I am going to go home tonight and eat the rest of the red pepper dip and then puke my guts out because of how rich it is. Ha.

I was so exhusted by the time everyone left yesterday. Thankfully I did all the dishes and stuff before so I don’t have a pile waiting for me tonight. I always dirty way more dishes then I need to when I’m making food.

I’ve totally lost my train of thought in this post. But thats ok. You won’t read it anyways.

I’ve gotta go to Costco tonight to pick up some pictures and apparently go for a Contact Fitting even though I’ve worn contacts before. I don’t understand. All I want to do it buy a pack from them but instead I have to go through this whole process of getting fitted and getting checked out and yadda yadda. I’m kinda annoyed. Its going to be a mad house trying to get there at this time.

Lets hope I am in and out.

Hockey Night VAN vs. COL

If I don’t blog first thing in the morning it takes me forever to finish a post mid day. The mornings are quiet. I get here half an hour before anyone else so I always use that time to catch up on emails and organize myself. Its also the perfect time to blog even though I rarely take advantage of that.

I’ve also got into the habit of drinking a cup of Earl Grey tea every morning when I get to work. It all started back when we had no heat and I needed it to warm me up. Now I just like it as a nice cozy treat in the morning.

As much as we in Vancouver are used to rain every day of our lives, this whole gloom and doom weather we’ve been having the past few weeks has affected me much more then usual. Yesterday felt weird. It felt like a Sunday but it was a Tuesday. It totally threw me off balance. Monday didn’t really feel like a work day because I knew I was getting Tuesday off so it feels like a really long weekend with Monday missing. I don’t know how to explain it. Yesterday just felt depressing. I think that’s what I am trying to get at.

I’ve never missed Summer so much in my life, and I am not a Summer person. I am much more a Fall and Winter person. I guess this year just felt like a bust. One because Summer came so late, and Two because I felt like I barely got to enjoy it with every moment of my life being consumed by wedding stuff. I hope next Summer is much more eventful. I really miss it being light out until 9pm.

Its Hockey Night at the Ciavarros tonight. I’ve made one of the two dips I plan on serving tonight. I slightly made a disaster while doing it. I mixed everything in my little hand held food processor thing and it just barely fit all the ingredients. Like I said. Slight disaster. It was 8:30 by the time I finished the first dip and the second was way more complicated so I saved it for tonight in my mad rush to eat dinner and set up the place before everyone comes. The house is pretty clean though.

I love being a hostess.

Oh and I still have Darios Birthday pictures to post. Mental Note that one. Oh yea and the Banquet. What have I been doing with my life?
