Potato Vodka and Pioneer Woman

I talk to my dental hygienist all of 2 hours a year, but it has been several years now. We have a lot in common. Somehow I manage to do this while she is cleaning my teeth. 

So anyway, recently, we were talking cocktails. She said she likes Monopolowa potato vodka. I didn't know there was such a thing. So anyway, the last time I was at the liquor store, I'm having a conversation with the liquor expert, who enlightened me about the differences between American, Polish, and Russian vodka. So anyway, I bought a bottle of Monopolowa to try.


Whew. This stuff is strong. It is so strong, in fact, that it ruined the finish on my kitchen table. The picture shows where the 'measuring' shot glass was sitting. I have tried furniture polish and Old English furniture stuff for scratches. Nothing worked. Anyway, I think I like smooth American vodka. Nicky asked me "If you didn't like the potato vodka, why did you drink it?" I was like ...ummmm......because you kept mixing me drinks using it????


So Nicky was visiting this weekend. Sunday he was sleeping in. I got up early and cleaned the kitchen, swept the floors, dusted, took out the trash and recycle, cleaned up dog poop, and raked leaves. Afterwards, I walked in the bedroom while he was still half asleep and he mumbled something about how I would make a good Pioneer Woman. I stood there with a questioning look trying to figure this out. Then he rambled "You would have milked the cows already....if you had them."  He is right I would make a great pioneer woman. 




So Hayley's friend at the mall is still adding Peaches pics to her shirt.

As of today

I hope everyone is having a lovely soon-to-be holiday season. Feeling grateful and joyous. Now, I wish I wouldn't have donated all my Xmas lights and decorations to charity. I just thought with Hayley getting older that I wouldn't want to waste my time hanging lights and decorating a tree. Not sure what I was thinking. Now, I've decided I need to at least put lights on the outside of my house.
