Hot Like Ebola!!!: Mmmm.....

Ixnay on the vegan thing, for today at least. Matt made rolled flank steaks stuffes with spinach, feta, and sauteed onions. One cannot get more carnivorous, I think. Especially when one considers the relative rareness of said food item.

Alright, here's my selfish whine for the day. When Matt and I got married, we got a fabulous assortment of wedding gifts, including a cool Rivera print, a vacuum cleaner, some plates, and several martini glasses. (We also got a decorative (not usable) coffee grinder called a kaffekvarn. Neither of us drinks or appreciates coffee. Oh, well.) We also got enough money to buy a couch, the rest of our plates, great knives, etc. All in all, a good haul. I have thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated all of these gifts.

But there was one thing we did not recieve. And that thing happened to be the one item I longed for, dreamt of, drooled over, and stood stroking in the store in the most pathetic way possible.

The KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer in Empire Red.

Ah, how many nights I spent thinking of the many masterpieces I would create with her. The moist, fluffy cakes. The perfectly smooth frostings. The chocolatey brownies and the soft, dense breads.

But alas, we did not recieve her. And she is just frivolous (and expensive) enough that it doesn't look like she'll be in my life any time soon.

Someday, my sweet. Someday.
