We have no groceries....

...in the house. I mean, none.

I could easily remedy this situation. I live within a 2 minute drive of two different grocery stores. But let me explain.

The boy started a new job this week. And he has been working extremely long hours. He leaves while it's still dark out, and I get to sleep for an exta hour and a half after his alarm goes off. And he doesn't get home until an hour and a half after I do most days. (Bliss.)

Anyways, on his first day, I thought I would play the good little housewife. Before he got home I ran him a bath, and then headed to the kitchen to see what sort of culinary delights I could prepare.

That is when I realized, "Holy Martha Stewart, we have a problem."

A bag of Uncle Ben's instant brown rice and a selection of M&M frozen appetizers do not a meal make.

You don't even want to know what I brought for lunch today.

The sad part is, while I have nothing of actual nutritional value in my kitchen right now, I had all the ingredients to make a double batch of chocolate & toffee chip cookies.

Sometimes fate works in mysterious ways.
