Mother's Day Cont...

Today has been pretty spiffy!  Wm and Steve (mostly Steve) brought my breakfast in bed (waffles, berries, bacon, and green tea), so things got off to a good start!  We did a bit of bird watching to complete Wm's "blizzard bag" because school was canceled so much this winter that they have to make up time with homework. Then, Steve and I planted flowers and mulched the front yard - which was hard work, but the weather was really nice and it looks super pretty now! Then, Steve made me an AMAZING dinner.  The pork loin turned out perfectly and Steve made the best guacamole I have ever had (take THAT, Chipotle!) Steve cooked the rice on heat that was too low, so it didn't turn out and he was heartbroken.  I couldn't have fit it in anyway after the 3 carnitas tacos topped with Steve's Killer Guac! I am now laying around like a giant, stinky slug.

Wm, meanwhile, was actually really sweet (despite ignoring me for 99% of the day).  He got me a pretty picture frame from World Market - but, the cutest part is what he did next. I sold his old bike on Craig's List today and gave him the money.  He handed Steve some of his bike earnings because he "still owed him for some of the frame" since he didn't have enough to pay for it all at the time. And when Steve goes, "oh, that's OK, buddy, this is your money" Wm goes, "NO. The frame is FROM ME, I am paying for ALL of it."

Steve's Killer Guac

The little bit of pork I didn't eat

Steve will kill me for this, but it's Mother's Day, so he can't be too crabby. One of his cronies gave him some book about a soccer guy (Steve was displeased when I called the guy "some rando" - as in "why will you read a book about some rando, but never anything I recommend!") who is pretty famous. Watching Steve read is hilarious.  Especially when he reads like this:

100% Pure Masculinity. Hands off, Ladies.  This one is TAKEN.
