Another day, another week, another month

So being that we never write on our blog, we are going to try to write on it with a little more consistency so that we can keep track of our random adventures and others can enjoy our stories if they want to.

So today we had yet more hot fire in the kitchen, I guess we just like cajun too much. Anyways in the midst of cooking up the chocolate for no bake cookies, the pan decides that its not big enough and the contents boil over the edges. Trying to prevent a huge disaster I pick up the pan, but being in the middle of doing dishes the sink was occupied so the pan got set down on another burner. Eric trying to be helpful and finding another location for the gooeyness got out a sheet of aluminum foil to put the pan on. That worked until I wanted to try to keep the chocolate boiling for at least the minute it was supposed to so the pan with the foil underneath went onto the hot burner and promptly caught fire. So panic ensued as the fire alarm starts going off and the fire gets blown out and the chocolate given up on trying to cook longer given the huge disaster it has created over half of our stove.

So besides that lovely little adventure.... Saturday was my last day of work at the Home Depot. So now I have a week to prep before we go on vacation to Utah and before school starts. Eric is still wiggling plants and looking for another job to keep him occupied as his hours will be getting cut soon.

We enjoy spending time with each other and often go for bike rides together down the centenial trial and take walks around campus at all hours when we just need to get out of our hot house. Cooler weather will be nice.
