Today's Miscellaneous

I'm so over winter.  Maybe not winter so much but definately over the cold weather.  Today with the wind chill it was 4 degrees at noon...and it felt warm if that tells ya anything about how cold it has been lately.

After lunch recess my boys came back to the room and got ready for handwriting.  They got through their assignments with little whining, which was a bonus.  I turned my back on them for just a minute while I turned on the -SMART Board for social studies.  When I turned back around I realized one of students had left the room without asking.  I walked out toward the drinking fountain and saw that he was filling my water bottle. Before he saw me, I asked him what he was doing.  He turned to me with a huge smile on his face and said, "I filling you bottle." 

Yes, a pretty sweet thing for him to do since he had noticed my bottle was nearly empty.  What he apparently thought was even nicer was that he decided to test out my bottle for me by taking a few drinks before he gave it back.

I was craving a salad from a local restaurant all day.  Thinking it'd be cheaper, I decided to go to the grocery store and buy some items to make my own for supper. 

I bought this dressing:

I got my salad assembled and decided to give the dressing a try before I actually put it on the salad.  Eww..it was horrible.  So I ran out to Walmart quick to get more dressing because I was determinded to have my salad tonight.  I got three bottles just to be safe...

Luckily all of them were pretty good.  So...$18 later I had my "cheaper than the restaurant" salad.  Should have just gone the easy and cheaper route and called for carry out on the salad I really wanted!

I had this with my salad and it was really good (for a microwave meal).

I cooked mine on the stove though since we don't have a microwave.

Has anyone else been watching this?

It's one of my guilty pleasure shows.  David kind of thinks I'm dumb for watching it.  I wouldn't say he's totally wrong about that one but I watch it anyway.  One of the moms is a South Dakota girl so I'm always trying to spot things I recognize from her area in the show.
