Grab your coffee cup this might be long...
But as you noticed I took some time off from blogging. The whole full time work thing is totally getting in the way of my blogging, and my social life, and frankly the nutrition level in our house...
A few weeks ago I was at an all day work event and we were scheduled to go to dinner at a friends house. No problem, except that I had committed to making potato salad before I realized how long I would be at work.
Here's the text conversation that happened in the afternoon:
Husband: Can I help get ready for dinner with the "coaches" tonight?
Me: Yes, that would be great can you cook some potatoes and boil some eggs
Husband: How many potatoes and eggs?
Me: Half a dozen eggs and a big hotel worth of potatoes.
[you see that...how that auto anticipate feature changed "big bowl" to "big hotel"]
Several HOURS later when I checked my phone.
Husband: I don't know how many potatoes fit in a big hotel?
Me: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
Husband: Did you proofread your last text?
So when I got home the largest bowl we own was filled with diced cooked potatoes. And six hard boiled eggs....
I couldn't stop laughing.
Was still laughing when we got to their house with our ENORMOUS amount of potato salad.
Needless to say we left a small hotel worth of potato salad with our friends.
And delivered a bed and breakfast worth to my parents.
And still ate potato salad every day for a week.
