Straw, straw everywhere!

Another crazy week. Frisbee here, ball there. Trying to get my patio in order. I found some chair pads that match my patio set and balcony finally! But then I ran out of propane for the BBQ :( I can't win. But all is well because I decided to buy a brand new shiny BBQ this weekend :) So I'll be entertaining in style.

My parents are coming this weekend to help me with the closet. Also we're all seeing Phantom of the Opera this weekend. I'm looking forward to it, I've heard so many great things!

Tonight I'm heading to Barb and Brant's for a BBQ. I decided that since I hadn't cooked for a while I'd make something for it. So I bought ingredients for my famous dip ( mostly so Brant wouldn't whine) but then I found this recipe for a Santa Fe Salad and decided I'd make that as well. I didn't know how much the recipe would make so I doubled it. Apparently one would have been fine, the dip is massive and the salad is even more massive. Plus I even have extra dip. The salad has black beans and red peppers and is in a homemade chili lime dressing, it's delicious, I taste tested it on Ryan yesterday. I kinda like having him around, he's handy.

I bought Bunnyrat a new bed on the weekend. It was straw, I thought it would solve the "sleeping in the litter box" problem and give her something to chew. The first day it looked great! She was sleeping in it and everything, the cage looked so clean, she looked comfy. Day 2 though, the whole bed was torn apart. Straw everywhere! And to add to it, she emptied out the hay rack on top of it all. It was the hugest mess ever! On to the next great idea.
