Nothing

Things I could blog about today:

My complete and total disregard of my garden
My recipe (actually, Mama Shirley's recipe) for Shrimp Etouffee
The Vikings game my family went to over two weeks ago
The super-delicious Woodchuck Fall Cider that is now available
My super crazy busy insane life right now

And you know what? Instead of any of those, you are getting nothing. Because I've disregarded my garden so much that I haven't even been out to take a picture of it, and what's the fun in a post about my failed garden when I don't even have a picture of it? And while I have a (super delicious looking) picture of the shrimp etoufee, I keep forgetting to grab the recipe card. As in--have been forgetting for the past two months. And it's definitely not a recipe that I've committed to memory. So that post won't be coming. And the Vikings game? I blame Darrell on that one because the photos still aren't edited. And when I say "blame", I really don't mean it because he's been doing all of the housework I've been neglecting (cooking, laundry, and cleaning included), plus doing an exceptional job taking (and editing) pictures from my soccer games. And while I've certainly had my fair share of the Woodchuck Fall Cider, I've never actually drank it slowly enough to be able to post a (moderately) accurate review of it--plus there's the whole piece of needing to remember to take a picture of it before I polish off the bottle. Maybe this weekend I'll remember to take tasting notes and a photo while I'm enjoying some with my sister. Or (more than likely) maybe I'll get too distracted by wedding planning to remember. And my super crazy busy life right now? Sure, I could complain about it, but no one would want to listen anyway, so what's the point (especially since 90% of it is more-or-less self-inflicted).

Hopefully I'll have some time to prepare something legitimate for Friday, but that would require planning more than one day in advance. And right now, I've been living my life planning three hours in advance (if I'm lucky). So we'll see how that goes.
