I Ate My Last Lemonade: A Weekend Blog

I’m rather happy with the weekend blogs. They have turned out to be a lot of fun. Lord knows I need something to do. Saturday’s we had a guest. I’m sorry. We broke protocol. She had not left the house in weeks. My sister-in-law. We still kept the distance. It was nice. All 3 of us had a good time. To be the first person someone has seen in 3 weeks is weird. It would have been a month ago. Love her. For all of you that are alone right now just know you are doing the right thing. Too many people are treating this like a joke. It won’t end if we don’t act.

Piñata Day!!

Lunch. Some dry rubbed BBQ chicken legs and grilled okra. I did end up using a baste. I couldn’t help myself. The flavors were excellent. Trying to keep lunch fun and fresh. I like the weekend company. My beautiful Bekah. We have fun. After 4 weeks of week days spent mostly alone, I’ve grown to really REALLY appreciate our 2 days together. Not that I didn’t before, but you get what I’m saying.

Battered Cod with asparagus. What can I say, it was okay. A meal on the menu for a while that kept being pushed back. Maybe I need to give this a little more love next time . F***. Asparagus wasn’t a good side. Saturday. I’m working with what I have. No more running to the store on a daily basis.

SkipBo. We be playing games. I kicked my wife’s a** two times in a row. I thought she was the expert here. It seems my “defense” isn’t any fun. Sore loser. Taking FaceTime shots with the Slovak again. How many weekends is this now? Four? Anyhow, lots of mixing. I watched with anxious amusement as the intoxication level quickly increased. Fun times.

Sunday brunch. I needed to use the rest of the chorizo that I had so I whipped together some chorizo egg tacos. The fresh tortillas were key here. This meal was needed for Bekah. Hangover cure. She took a nap on the couch afterwards (3 hours). Didn’t even budge when I offered her a “hair of the dog”. Good for her.

The day was lazy. The only time I left the house was to wash my car. When did I last drive? Friday? Sometime in between the birds decided my vehicle was the perfect shooting range for them to target their s*** on. It looked like I had a new paint job. Terrible unfortunate mess. Wash away. On my way back I stopped to look at some Lily’s. Park closed, screw it. No one was around and I was quick. They are finally starting to bloom.

Sunday marks a month. It has been a long, very long, one. If they lift restrictions too soon it will be all for nothing, I fear. As badly as I want to go back to work I want this to work even more. Some people really think this is all a joke? I… don’t… understand how.

Sun in an empty room.

BBQ chicken thigh w/ street corn. I was told I eat a lot of jalapeño today. Duh! This chicken is the same as Saturday. Just thighs. Corn was a f***ing masterpiece. Woot woot!!

Now it’s time to inform you of the real tragedy of the weekend. A mistake was made. I drunkenly ate my last Lemonade Girl Scouts cookie!!! What a dumb blunder!! I had been hoarding what was left for a special occasion!!! Not a 3 AM snake which I don’t even remember!!! I’m a fool!!! Until next year, delicious cookies. I shed a tear for you.

Left myself a f***ing post it note reminder so I’d know my mistake the next morning.

That’s it for another weekend blog. Cheers folks!! We got this!!!
