Thanks! I can't take any credit for the invite - my mother in law and my aunt in law created them! They are super cute though!Nessa, there is no doubt your shower is going to be super terrific. I'd love to come!!
I do have a bone to pick with you...even tho you are pregnant and have a zillion things to do, I miss your updates on your pregnancy, etc...Get on the stick girl!!!! I want pictures as well.
As for being a total slacker - I KNOW. But most of the stuff I'm experiencing now is repeat crapola from the first trimester...not so much *funny* as whiny/pathetic. For example, who wants to read about how the last time I tried to groom Nanook, and I was bent over his back brushing out his feathers, I totally refluxed lunch into my mouth? Ugh! Or about how every morning my poor husband has to massage my tush before leaving for the gym, because my right hip is a knot of agony by morning? (Okay that's a little funny, but only if you aren't Sandy.)
I'm also trying to finish the posts from Mexico but honestly, I don't remember so much. There was a lot of sleeping and eating.
Still, I've got a few I've got to cover - like what we're bringing to the hospital in our labor and delivery bags, or the great Circumcision debate of 2011, and I suppose I could write about the Gala we went to last weekend where San and I were seated right in front of the band speakers, the band was FREAKISHLY loud, and Rhys went totally wild every time the drum set kicked up until finally I went and sat out in the cocktail tent just so the inside of my uterus wouldn't be black and blue by midnight. Then Sandy's car broke down while the valet was fetching it for us, and we had to take a cab home.
I'll get there eventually, I promise!

Argh, the hip pain from side-sleeping...thanks for reminding me! Fingers crossed you don't get the Carpal Tunnel. Makes brushing your teeth super-duper fun Seriously, before you know it, you'll have crossed the finish line, I promise. And coming from someone only (exactly) 8 months out of it, much of it really is starting to become a distant memory, if that's of any comfort to you
Also, very cute invite!

Hollandaise
And if you want fancy for your veggies or Eggs Benedict the easiest Hollandaise ever
1 stick butter- break it up into tabls sizes.
2 eggs yolks- broken
2 tsps fresh lemon juice
little salt & white pepper (use black if you don't have white)
Put all this in the top of a double boiler, stir it around a little bit and leave for 30 minutes. then place top of double boiler over simmering water and stir with a WOODEN spoon until cooked and thickened. Remove from heat immediately. You can add a little more lemon juice in the next version if you like more "punch". the trick to is to be sure to use a wooden spoon, otherwise the metal is likely to react with the acid of the lemon and curdle the butter. Yummy with asparagus or broccoli as well as eggs benedict.

EEk, not sure how Hollandaise got posted in Nessa's thread. Sorry, Angela or Jeannie can you move it. Must have been a senior moment.
