I’m So Excited! And I Just Can’t Hide It!

After 4 long years, tonight was my last night as the Homeowner’s Association President!!!  I got guilted into doing it 4 years ago (and basically every year since).  I tried to step down last year-ya know, I had a newborn?  But, this year it FINALLY worked and I am NO LONGER ON THE BOARD! Wow, what a thankless job that has zero perks. ZERO.  All it is is other homeowners calling you on Christmas Eve asking you to come sweep their roof for them-that got a big “NO”. Anyway-I’m DONE.

Dinner tonight was some tri-tip that I had in the freezer.  I threw it in the crock pot this morning with some Bone Suckin’ Sauce and chicken broth and cooked it on low.

I’m all out of my Bone Suckin’ Sauce 🙁

I served it sliced on buns with Trader Joe’s BBQ sauce.  I LOVE this sauce!

Shaun and Lucy got regular mayo, but I picked something new up to try. Garlic-Herb Lemonaise:

It was really good.  There’s eggs in it, so it’s not vegan, but it’s made with canola oil and has a nice tang.

I also put some vegan cheese on it.  I’m trying to use this stuff up.  I’m not a huge fan of processed crap, even if it’s vegan.  Here’s my non-photogenic dinner:

The brussel sprouts were frozen ones that I threw in the oven with some balsamic.  I wouldn’t recommend trying to roast frozen brussel sprouts.  The weren’t very good.  Thankfully my sandwich was.

Shaun usually hates meat that I cook in the crock pot but he REALLY enjoyed this and gave it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.

After my meeting Shaun asked if I would go get him some dessert.  It’s been POURING rain, thunder, hailing-basically the worst storm we’ve had ALL YEAR and he gave me the pouty face about dessert.  So I picked some stuff up:

(I think I deserve an award for wife of the day today).  Guess which one I had?

You’re right 🙂 Some more processed junk.

It was DEEEEEE-licious though!

Alright, off to go watch some Idol.  See you in the AM!
