Today I tested out my homemaking abilities. First I fixed a delicious salad for stand-in-husband; Ned. The salad, being far from ordinary, included orange and yellow peppers, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado, pita chips, feta cheese, sliced ham, fresh pepper, LOTS of salt, and my newly invented dressing. Feel free to try it--combine mayo (of course), dijon mustard, lots of lemon juice, olive oil, salt, parmesan cheese, and fresh pepper. It sounds god awful, but it's delicious. I made sure that the salad was properly garnished and aesthetically pleasing--things that only a true "lady of the house" would fuss over. After cleaning the dishes and wiping the countertops I fluffed two pillows and even thought about vacuuming in heels. All the while I was really wishing that I had a pearl necklace and big hair. At the request of Neddy Bear, (it is all I can do to not vomit all over the place after using this endearment), I made a simply sublime two tiered fudge cake with cream cheese frosting. By this time I was really getting into the groove of the whole housewife gig. I thought, 'Why stop at cake?' so I made a big batch of Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies. There's no saying where this day will lead me but I would be deceiving myself if I didn't admit that I am terrified at how successful I was at 'Project Homemaker'. I have come to two conclusions: 1) There is nothing I can't do and 2) I'm a catch. Song of the Day: Just A Friend by Biz Markie. This is for all the Ladies in da house. Do yo thang.
