Guilty

Well, well, well, Happy First Day of Summer to you all.  Mother Nature opted to observe the holiday by putting an end to the rain and gloom of yesterday and giving us some cheery sunshine today. 

Now that it’s officially summer, let’s keep the sun a shinin’ okay?

It’s come to my attention today that I’ve been guilty of several things.  I thoughT I’d fess up and share.  Because if you can’t be honest in the blogosphere, where can you?

Yesterday I ventured to the store to pick up some groceries that included a few ingredients I needed to make Jess’s “Caesar Hummus.”  And then I proceeded to buy already-made hummus.

Yes, I’m guilty of buying hummus, even though I have the ingredients to make it on hand, because, well, I was hungry for hummus right then.

You can never have enough hummus though, right?

Don’t worry, I ended up making the Caesar hummus today and can I just say best hummus ever? 

Gah, so good.  But really, how could it not be when it involves capers?

I’m also guilty of buying canned pumpkin even though I know we’re well out of pumpkin season.  I had some stored in the freezer but someone decided to toss it when they cleaned out the freezer during the move.

You’ve been warned, Joey.  Don’t mess with my pumpkin ever again.

And seeing as it’s the First Day of Summer and all, I should probably confess that I’m guilty of listening to Atmosphere’s “Sunshine” multiple times a day. 

I can’t help it, it’s just such a feel good summer song.

 

And while we’re on the topic of Youtube videos, I’m totally guilty of watching this video at least three times today.  I blame Caitlin.

Please take three and a half minutes out of your day to watch is.  But only so you’ll understand when I say things like “Nothing can stop the honey badger when it’s hungry” in reference to myself. 

And nothing can stop the honey badger when she sees “Rockstar Spinach” for sale at the Farmers’ Market.  The leaves are the size of my hand. 

No really, they are.

And call me crazy, but I’m guilty of preferring regular old bagged and imported from God knows where spinach from the grocery, because this stuff was bitter and hard to eat.  And not just because I couldn’t even fit an entire leaf in my mouth but because it was way too crisp. 

It left a bad taste in my mouth.  Literally and figuratively. 

Luckily I had some Food Should Taste Good chips to wash it down with.  Joey and I are both guilty of buying a bag yesterday.  And both from Target, oddly enough. 

Living together has made us transform into the same person.  Except that I hate beer and South Park and don’t eat at Taco Bell.  And Joey refuses to eat breakfast.  Okay, we’re not the same at all, but I’m glad we’re in agreement on the fact that these chips are good.

We aren’t so in agreement about keeping the kitchen floor clean.  Which is why I’m guilty of leaving notes like this for him and our roommate, Claire.

And apparently I was in a cleaning mood because not only did I clean the kitchen floor, but I also vacuumed the living/dining room and folded laundry.

I’m guilty of owning the same exact running shirt in two colors.  I can’t help it, I love it. 

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

And now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to enjoy the rest of this sunny day.

What are you guilty of?  Come on now, fess up.

Or you can just quote the honey badger video to me and you’ll officially be my favorite person of the day.
