dinner and a movie
I had my friend Heather over for dinner and a movie tonight.
I had a netflix DVD coming in the mail so I asked her if she wanted to come over and watch it with me. Then I asked her if she wanted to come over for dinner too, that way I actually have to make something. I tend to brush off such trivial details when I’m only taking care of me. (bad Charlyn)
Dinner was meatballs made from scratch. They turned out really good! It was a much simpler recipe than the last time I tried making them from scratch and I liked them a whole lot better. After cooking them, I added pineapple tidbits and sweet and sour sauce and cooked it all a while longer. Serve it with rice and you have a yummy, filling dinner. (my mom likes to lay a row of frozen meatballs from costco in a 9×13 pan, cover with S&S sauce and pineapple, cook til it’s all good and hot and serve with rice)
Then for the movie. I had ‘An American in Paris’. a 1951 musical with Gene Kelly. We weren’t impressed. Normally I adore musicals, but this one was just too disjointed and some of the story line just wasn’t at all nice. It was getting late (for me 
) so we didn’t even finish it. I might finish it someday, or look it up online to see how it ended. But it’s quite predictable.
On another note, I’ll probably ask Jonathan to log into my Facebook for me and make it so that these blogs don’t automatically post there. So if you want to keep up with these, please bookmark my blog or add it to your RSS reader.
