For Christmas, my husband and his parents bought me pretty much every kitchen tool I saw on tv this year and said, "oh we should try that!"
I think they feel bad for me, but I really am interested in things other than cleaning and food.
For the cleaning thing, I really am a bad gay stereotype. I like things in their place and I love when my husband's mother comes into our house and does this little head nod with a smile.
I will say, the air fryer is the best invention ever!
Last night they came for dinner, and I made them chicken in the air fryer. His mom brought a big salad she'd made and the two things were so good together.
The juicer is somehow masculine enough for my husband to get into. He loved shoving giant vegetables into the machine. We made a celery, carrot, cucumber, apple juice then I added frozen berries to the glasses. It was so good.
I'm enjoying spending all this time with his family, but we are both ready to get back to California when all this is over.
We have had so many meals in our car or a park this year. It's become our habit when we need to get out of the house. We order online, pull up for curbside, then either eat in the car or go to a nearby park.
Yesterday we ate in our car in the parking lot of the park because it was a little busy. There was an endless supply of hot guys out running! We live just a mile from the most popular trail that runs along the bayou. It was funny because every guy who would pass, we would say "yes" or "no" for who we liked. I'm sure all couples do this at some point. My husband gave a few yeses to some passing girls as well! I didn't vote on any girls.
It's funny how much he has changed. He used to never ever comment on guys he thought were cute, and I wouldn't have even dared to do that. Now it's like "Ok, whatever. We're together forever so it's cool."
It also surprised me that he isn't just into white boys like me. He has a pretty good spectrum of interests.
Did anyone else stay up late with the election news? I fell asleep on my guy's chest about 10, but I know he was up late (He's still sleeping in). He will be happy for the news when he wakes up. It'll help us get the rest of his family here. He has two brothers and their families still back in Iran. I know how much that will mean to his family to be together again.
Today's font is Georgia. 😀
A snack with dinner!
ReplyDeleteSo happy about GA. I feel like I can stop holding my breath and breathe again. Happy for your family too. But I couldn’t stay up watching it. Too stressful for me.
There's been so much crazy going on! We are taking the day off from news stuff.
