I spent basically the whole day napping with the dog and the husband. It was epic.
Just like next week will be an epic fail as I try to work around all the stuff I didn’t do.
I swear the cold just makes me go into hibernation. My appetite was all over the place too. We started our “morning” with hunks of sourdough dipped in herbed olive oil.
Off all the things my body could have demanded at 45* degrees in October, next came ice cream.
I topped Ben and Jerry’s Cinnamon Roll ice cream with hot fudge and Heath crumbles.
When we did make our way out of the cave it was to go to the movies. 50/50 was great; very touching and funny. I love Seth Rogan in everything he does but it was nice to get to see him play a new role.
We also made a weekly trip to Wegmans. They were out of eggplant entirely which through our meal plan for a loop, but I think we worked it out. We didn’t get any hot bar (more on that tomorrow) but I did buy 50cents worth of Halloween candy.
50cents for $100 worth of happiness. I live for theme things.
Following the theme, Adam and I split a pumpkin beer when we got home.
Shock Top’s Pumpkin Wheat was wonderful. Not bitter at all like some pumpkin beers I’ve tried. I think I actually liked this variety better than traditional Shock Top.
For dinner we made this tofu quiche.
Same recipe as last time, though I did leave out the milk this go-round.
It was quite good; very cheesy. A good hibernation food.
How did you celebrate the start of October?







The tofu quiche looks really good! I might actually try making it in the future and then blog reading won’t be a waste for me either…hehe. I celebrated the start of October by walking over the BK Bridge (and haphazardly participating in the Occupy Wall St. protest), riding on Jane’s Carousel, and attending a housewarming/b-day party.
Ooooh, walking the Brooklyn Bridge is a great way to celebrate anything!
