The Week in Rewind

Well there would have been at least two blog post last week. If my phone hadn't been all, "Dear Kelsey, I hate you and am going to stop letting you email pictures to yourself. By the way, I will keep working in all other areas except the way you want me to." Then I had to be all, "Dear phone, please don't hate me. If you work for me just this once I promise to not call tech support and waste hours of my time and yours to hear them ask me, 'Maam have you tried turning your phone off and turning it back on.''--I had a very compelling argument to say the least and now my phone loves me again-yay! So heres what you missed:

Sunday/ Monday ish (of last weekish):
I was doing my normal singing like Cinderella as I unloaded the dishwasher, "tra la la this is my favorite thing to do EVER"-when I came across a kitchen quandary if you will. I was putting the utensils away when I noticed that there are clearly one too many slotty thingies.
Exibit A
What the heck! Does anyone know what that extra slotty thing is for?!?
Sometimes, to mix it up I have TWO fork drawers instead. I know, livin on the wild side.....



Wednesday/Thursday ish-
I call my husband as I get off of work. And I am all, "Tra la la-work is my favorite thing EVER," basically the same thing I say everyday. And he is all, "Guess what! I did laundry!" When I get home an hour later (yes, yes this IS how long it takes me to get home...you may start feeling bad for me now) guess where all the lovely exciting loads o laundry goodnees are??? On top of my glorious bed. It is like the piles are just sitting there, taunting me-MmMMM this bed is sooo comfy, it is too bad there isn't enough room on here for both of us....oh well...MMmmm. Thanks HONEY.


Saturday-
I made a wonderful, delicious, tasty, fantastic, throw-everything-in-and-viola-you-have-dinner-crock-pot-meal!

First, I chopped things up (thanks to SLAP CHOP, the best birthday gift ever! thanks patrick!).

Then, I threw stuff in.

Then, I hit "On".

Then, I was all, "Tra la la- this was the best dinner-EVER".

The End.

Micro-GROSS

Saturday morning I woke up to a bloody bloody kitchen scene I haven't seen in months (like at least since the last time I cleaned my microwave):
Unfortunately, this picture doesn't even do justice to the food corpses that covered this small space. There were even casualties I could never have anticipated:

This poor guy never even knew what hit him.

But, as with any good war story there were heros that emerged amongst the wreckage:

And after a hard fought battle, the sun came out once again:
(can't you just hear the angelic "awwwwww")

Update on my pantry situation-the universe keeps telling me it is time to start that project. I got some sort of food bank/food drive notice in the mail today. I am sure I have cans of stuff in that pantry that I bought thinking I would eat, and still never had. I haven't actually started this project-but I am thinking about it more! That has got to count for something!
