It’s a good thing I took today as a vacation day
I woke up at 11:30 a.m. this morning. I was dead asleep from the time I went to bed until 11:30- none of this wake up and decide to go back to sleep stuff.

Sleeping over 12 hours was truly delicious and I don't feel even a little bit guilty about it, because I woke up refreshed and ready to conquer the world.

It's not in my plans to conquer the world today, mind you, but if I had planned it- I'm ready for it.

Yesterday was lovely. Dinner turned out fab and the company was great. Of course, having Riley here is always a treat for me. The bearded eye-roller tells everyone that Riley could sneeze and I'd think it was the cutest thing in the world.

It was fun playing Easter Bunny to my real kids Son#2, Jessica, and Riley) and my Internet kids. I have collected so many Internet kids that I think I've lost count. I've never had one live close enough to actually invite to family gatherings- so having Angela (and her tag-along, Colby.. tee hee) here is wonderful.

BTW, Angela? You're never allowed to move away. mad OK, one caveat, you are allowed to move back to your REAL mother's vicinity, since I know she's kind enough to share.

We ended up watching Brother 1 Clayton (with George Clooney) and my comment once the movie was done was, "I want last two hours of my life back". Can you believe that I had two full hours of George Clooney and didn't savor every minute? Well, that just goes to show you how much I did NOT like that movie.

I experimented a bit with the asparagus and it turned out really well. I used a turkey baster to take the drippings out of the prime rib pan and poured them into a sauce pan. Added to that, 1/2 cube of butter (everything is better with butter, dontcha think?), 3 beef bullion cubes, sliced mushrooms, sliced green onion, garlic and salt. I let that cook for a couple of hours until it was reduced to a thick sauce. I laid the asparagus on to a serving dish and a poured the sauce over the top of the asparagus. It made for a lovely presentation and it was really yummy.

Anyhoo- now I have to decide whether I want to conquer the garden, or just reeeeeeelllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaxxxxxxxxxxxx today.

::kid in the back raises hand:: Hey RisibleGirl, why don't you just relax today?

Good idea, kid in the back! I think I'll do that!

Are you kidding me?! You didn't like that movie at all?! I loved that movie that I watched it twice.

Glad to hear (read) that yesterday was fun and memorable nonetheless. We missed out. :(

Enjoy your day off today - and what a nice long sleep you got! Jealous!

Thank you so, so much for having us over for such a DELICIOUS dinner! I thought the rolls were really superb, didn't you??

And I think I have to agree, Dollface is just about one of the cutest little munchkins I've ever seen!
