Pampered

I had a Pampered Chef Party last night that turned out to be a great time. (Yep, I'm officially OLD.) We had wine and got to use all kinds of kitchen tools which spun me off into my personal housewife fantasy where I dreamed of cooking delicious meals for a houseful of guests. Sadly, I still cannot cook but LUCKILY Carri (the PC Consultant) helped us make a super easy, amazingly delicious salad. (It's Paleo for those who were wondering and it's quite healthy for you without actually TASTING healthy...which makes the salad a winner in my book.) The wine wasn't enough to counter-act the good decision of eating a salad for dinner so we busted out a block (or two) of cream cheese and covered one with raspberry habenero sauce and the other with pineapple rum sauce. It was my first time ever trying those sauces but I have decided that I WILL make raspberry habenero meatballs sometime very soon. YUMMM! After preparing the food the girls sat down on my NEW dining room table. We had to use a hodge podge of chairs since we're still waiting on a new shipment at Garden Ridge but it was a great space and I was beyond thrilled to FINALLY use it! Adam spent the night on a bro-date with his friend at an Irish pub in Virginia Beach...so everyone was happy.

In other news, I started a HOME album on Facebook so I can finally share all of our updating and renovations with friends and family. I'll update it as often as we do work around the house.
