Yo-Yo Yoga Pants...!! Wowsers!!

E.V. and I were pretty busy today...shopping..cooking...lurking about...the usual..we went to the mall..yep..I know..I hate the mall..but I love the stores housed within this mall...I hate the people...the clerks...basically all of it, except the merchandise..however, that is the point of going to the mall...the merchandise..we got yoga pants.. Now, I do not do yoga..but the pants rock..can I give a shout out to a sassy gal named Victoria and she has awesome secrets..by the way...shhhhh...!..I also got tights with lightning bolts..  And a new magical pen..and another pumpkin...As previously mentioned...we were busy...busy little bees...but, our sting does not compare to that of a chainsaw juggler...

"Hurry up, Mama...I need and want my treat!..."

She always has been pushy..and demanding...gets that from her mama, I suppose...  I have another blog surprise...yeah...I am full of them this evening...I could not help myself...these tribulations in which I am forced to endure...I am a martyr...hahahaha... nah...not me...I did purchase another pumpikin...it was right...had to be done...

Here he is..in all his glory..before I got my hands on him...hahahahahaha

Allow me to introduce the newest internet sensation....

His name is Phelps...no pumpkin or scientific references...I named him after Leon....and trust me...he IS a ladies man..........His eye is a tad crooked...shhhhh..speaking of which, ever drink those St. Ides Crooked Eyes...OMG...the stories I could tell...sorry for getting off track..again..I try and try...

I swear this is the last man I will bring into the apartment...otherwise, I am sure it is violation of my lease...or at least a law in Oregon...I could be wrong..But, here is the fleet...

My boys...the fleet...just like fleet week..minus the seamen...and substitute pumpkins...I would keep them around longer...but they have this problem with spilling seeds and such...it conflicts with my OCD...oh, well...temporary eye candy...can't beat that...

"So, Mama...speaking of the sea...and seamen...what did the fisherman say to the card magician???  Pick a Cod....any Cod...hahahahahahahahha"

Aside from increasing the jock um, I mean, jack-o-lantern population at the Headwaters...we made some scones of the blueberry variety..it is the weekend..

Flour, baking powder, brown sugar, vanilla, egg, butter,  blueberries and cream...

You mix everything up..only, of course, while shaking some bootie..it is only right..the right thing to do...

Yep..toss it around....mix it up...zero regrets....shall we move along to the next step...

Cut your scones up into triangles...and bake at 375 for approximately 20 minutes...again..you will not be sorry...

Delicious and warm scones...fresh from the oven...hmmmm...like chainsaw jugglers, one might say...

In the mean time...we did make dinner..pork with sage...pimento cheese gratin and green bean bacon bundles..dinner was cut short by an unfortunate incident...my ankle is probably broken...but...I wll explain in a moment...

Cream, potatoes, pimentos, paprika, cheddar, butter and pepper..mmmmm...

You make a roux and then mix in the cheese....

Ahh...cheesy AND saucy...just like me!!  tisk-tisk...

Hmmm...were was I...oh, yeah...I did become slightly distracted, although that never, ever happens..nope..never...I am always on track...in the right direction...

Shall we discuss the other component to the meal...

The other white meat..pepper, sage, vinegar, garlic and olive oil...seared in a pan...

Shall I introduce the final meal..

Pork, pimento cheese gratin and green bean bundles..with bacon...bacon makes the world go 'round...just like those that juggle chainsaws...

E.V. did enjoy some car time today...and it was a long, long day...my driving has improved..it has...just ask Geico..they'll vouch for me...completely...

"Ya know, Mama...I may be having second thoughts..can you take me back...I would prefer to ride along in that van..were they not headed in a van towards the river???."

So...getting back to my accident...my smoke alarms went off this evening...and I was genius enough to stand atop a swivel chair...that swiveled..and I fell off..I am pretty sure my ankle is broken...or my foot...something... I have no idea how I am going to walk the dog in the morning...it hurts more than you can imagine..HOWEVER...I still can shake bootie in my chair...and that is all that matters..well that, and the hotness of chainsaw jugglers...Sooo..have a wonderful evening...do not ever stand atop chairs that swivel..always wear your seat belt..Green Day rocks..as do yoga pants and CSJ's in case you had forgotten!  Um..yeah..that's right...we will be back...yep...in a van down by the river!...hahahahhaahaha...Later, my friends...
