the lengths some will go through to have certain refreshments at the fair

Last Friday we went to the Miami Dade County Youth Fair to pig out on the food with the majority of the M-Clan. Eddie had planned to bring a flask filled with Zacapa to the fair for us to add to our soda. The nice flask Papo got him as a best man gift came with a funnel for filling purposes however he couldn't find it. I walked into the kitchen and found him filling the flask. Guess he really wanted zacapa that night....

Ahoy Matey


So yesterday while shopping at HomeGoods we saw this woman in the pillow aisle but somehow eddie missed her until we came up behind her in line. He looked at me and said "Seriously?!" I replied "Yep didnt you see her earlier when we were picking out pillows" as I take out my phone to snap a pic. He said "Nope didnt see her. What, does she have a pirate complex?? " As I'm taking the pic he says "Well if she says anything to us I'm gonna say ahoy matey!" I almost lost it laughing, thank goodness the register announcement came on for us to move to register one.

The Nodals need a chef

Suprisingly, its been a long time since Eddie provided any blog material. So tonight I bring you a new post that involves both of us and will probably have you shaking your head at me more than him.

Tonight I was cooking pork chops for dinner. When I was done I removed the pan from the stove and placed it on my tempered glass cutting board. We turned our attention to the sink to drain the macaroni and mix in the ingrediants for the mac and cheese when we heard this loud noise as if something exploded. We turned around and there was glass all over the stove, countertop, and floor. I turned to Edward and asked "omg, what was that?!" He replied that he thinks someone just broke our sliding glass window. He walks all over the broken glass barefoot to leave the kitchen and tells me to go stay in our bedroom because he doesn't know if someone has entered our backyard. So I go to our room and he goes into our office and comes out with his 5 iron in hand. He is going to go investigate what happened while I call the cops. As the operator finishes saying to me "911 whats your emergency?" I hear him screaming, "nevermind, hang up, we dont need 911". So I left our room with 911 still on the line and asked him "why, why did you find". His reply, "what broke was the cutting board". I then tell 911 "nevermind, sorry to bother you."

Yes ladies and gentlemen, apparently the pan was so hot it shattered the cutting board. See exhibit A below. We are now accepting applications for a personal chef.
