It's just Cream Cheese
Wow, it's been a while since I've said anything here. Comcast is not so evil anymore, my friend Andrew visited Seattle for a week and now has returned back to Alabama, my team at work went Curling and had a great time, and I've been to the grocery store so many times in the past couple of weeks I think the cashiers know my debit card number better than I do.
I've been to the store so often because I like to cook especially for people who like to eat. So when Andrew was in town, I had to of course go out and buy things for lunches and suppers and snacks and drinks and more drinks and more snacks, etc. The last evening that Andrew was in Seattle, we all went down to Federal Way to have dinner with Joe's parents. Joe's mom cooked up this extraordinary amount of food (made me regret having such a large lunch earlier in the day) and it was all very good. She also made this awesome cheesecake, and I say awesome because it wasn't this heavy-set baked overtly sweet and overdone cheesecake (ala Costco...). No no, in fact it was this light, smooth easy-to-eat cheesecake. I liked it so much she gave me the recipe, and this is where the cream cheese comes into play....
As I've been to the grocery store so many times, I go and I had been forgettnig to pick up..yes you guessed it, cream cheese to recreate this cheesecake. Last night, I go to the store yet AGAIN and I actually put the cream cheese into my basket. I go to the register, swipe the card and see the cream cheese get scanned. I drove home, unloaded the groceries and there is no cream cheese to be found anywhere. I look all over the house, no cream cheese. Go outside and retrace every step, no cream cheese. Look in my car, no cream cheese.
To not think about this cream cheese, I watched a Nova special about Amundsen's journey through the Northwest Passage. I even though about watching the Gold medal Men's Curling match again from the Olympics (DVR is good...).
Should I go to the store tonight? Hhmm. I know that Heather wants to try and have a Dick's Hamburger night (she is moving to LA next week!!)... I can stop by the store again.... :)
