How we spent our money this week.

Two round trip tickets to Brazil: Check.  $$$
New bike for Rick (plus all the gear that goes with it): Check.  $$$$
New Macbook Pro for Rick: Check: $$$
New Bike shoes and Pedals for Keenan: Check: $$
Every single meal eaten out since Friday: Check.  $$

The only thing that was free and plentiful all weekend long?  Humidity.  Not sure I can handle this place.  And it's only June.


Up this week:
Keenan heads to Indianapolis for work, Rick heads to Boston.  Ships passing in the night.

Our house smells like goodness.


Test is over and Rick is back.  And he's in the kitchen cooking some sort of delicious pasta goodness.  Yay!!  House (er, apt) smells like garlicky tomato-y sausagey heaven.  I love it when he cooks because, unlike me, he loves to invent recipes based on whatever we have in the pantry.   We call it the Pantry Challenge, and he almost always wins. 

I'm so glad he's back, though he's already thinking about the next test he's going to study for.  Oh dear.

We celebrated last night with some friends over beer and then a yummy meal at Zaytinya.  Holy cow delicious.  I may or may not have had a few too many Aphrodites Pear cocktails (hey, I get to celebrate too, right??), and the server just surprised us with all kinds of good food from the menu, which is a good strategy if you are indecisive like me and ALWAYS change your order.  Yum.

Up next for the Robbinses:
- Family trip to NC coast for a friend's wedding
- Booking a trip to Brazil in August to see Mary
- Buying a bike for Rick so we can compete in....
- Nations Triathlon on September 12
- refilling the wine glass to go with dinner....now that it's 9:36.  Bon Appetit!
