what i did today

didn't sleep much - i almost went grocery shopping at 2:10am for crunchy peanut butter but i thought better of it...

walked 8.25 miles roundtrip to Albertsons for crunchy peanut butter. didn't buy sweetener with fiber however because it was $7 for 50 teeny packets and i refuse to pay oprah money for something so insignificant. the cat's severed head has been cleaned up from the orthodontist's lawn, thankfully. i still got the heeby jeebies walking by though....

had 10 grapes and a banana for lunch

was on the fence all day about buying a stupid waffle maker. i want one that makes thin 1970s waffles... i saw this one that's a total bargain, but it's at buy.com and i don't like to shop anywhere but amazon because of the sales tax thing. plus it's refurbished and i don't want to find a strangers' crusty waffle crumbs in it's nooks and crannies (i got goosebumps just typing it).

so then i looked at amazon and found this one which is double the money but rectangular, which suits Aaron's waffle preferences. but then i wondered if we would really even use it that much.... and i want it by sunday morning, naturally. then i noticed you can get things delivered on saturdays from amazon... (i was just saying UPS should deliver everyday) and next day shipping is only $3.99 - how on earth do they do that?! so, i was about to buy it, when i noticed this sinister review:
"Black & Decker should recall this evil monster"
now i don't know what to do... i just know i want waffles on sunday, but i don't want an evil monster making them :(

went to Trader Joe's for some ebelskiver thingies (round pancake things from Denmark, apparently...) and indian food for dinner (which i forgot to make....) Danny and i tried some really yummy apple coffee cake at the tasting hut. George Clooney's identical twin (i am so not kidding, he was actually much cuter, more Danny Ocean circa 2001) was in front of us in line - he was SO CUTE, checkers appeared from nowhere to scan his wares :) the nice cashier, gushing with niceness, gave Danny a chocolate bar which he shared with me :)

went to the school pumpkin patch :| it didn't rain :| i hate those things with a passion :|

watched 20 minutes of Lisa Marie on Oprah... there's only one thing worse than Oprah - and that's Oprah talking to another celebrity... hence only 20 minutes :)

went to In N Out and ate 8 french fries, and not even 8 animal fries :)

went to pump it up :) only suffered one skinned elbow :)

went home. thought about the waffle maker more and still couldn't decide :| time for Dr Phil and hopefully some clarity :)

    Abelskiver! Yum! In Denmark they have them around Christmas time, topped with with strawberry jam and icing sugar and washed down with mulled wine. Sooo good. In Australia they have them.... never :(
    Ooh, I have a cunning plan. My Danish friend has her mum visiting at the moment. Surely all Danish grannies know how to make abelskiver? I feel some hint dropping coming on ;)

    Now about the peanut butter in your porridge. Frown. Just don't be tempted to mix in nutella. The camp cook on one of my safaris did that. Gag!
