The Mary Jane Special
Happy Monday Everyone!
I would have to say that I am having a severe case of the Mondays today. Just not having a good day. Work has gotten frustrating again. Sometimes it is hard to put in all the work I do when I get no credit for it. My boss told me today that I have a 45 minute presentation to give to some sales people TOMORROW! No notice at all! Very frustrating.
Anyways, this past weekend was Tino’s birthday as most of you know by the previous posts. His mom invited us over for dinner on Saturday night celebrate his birthday. We had a really nice time and she made some pretty good food. I wanted to share it with all of you.
So consider this a kind of guest post but not really, haha. I don’t know any of the recipes for this yummy food so you will just have to enjoy the pictures. Thanks again Mary Jane for the great food!
ahhh the important things…hehe
DEELLISSH! Nice work on this MJ! Was a great apple crisp! Even the puppy enjoyed it!

Work can be a bummer some days….I have those days when corporate feels like its going to take all the fun out of life….. fortunately I have my girls to cheer me up!! I hope you get the recognition you deserve, it sounds like your boss needs to take some classes in management!
I answered your questions on my blog! Thanks for thinking of me!

I’m sorry about your Monday. 🙁 I’d tell you a joke to cheer you up but I can’t really think of any funny ones except the one my daughter runs around telling people…

Those are the best kind! Hehe thanks Dionne

By the time you read this you will have done your presentation – hope you rocked it! Thanks for tagging me last week – I had to go out of town to help my sister handle an emergency with my mom, so haven’t had a chance to respond. Tomorrow I’m leaving for France so will be MIA until the end of the month – so excited and really need a vacation after last week 🙂

Yay! That sounds amazing!! Make sure to take lots of great pictures while you are in France, what a vacation that will be 🙂 And I am just about to walk in to give my presentation right now, thanks for the well wishes!

Don’t you just love those last minute tasks? I feel like I get them all the time.. yesterday was actually one of those days for me as well! This dinner looks yum though so at least you had that to look back on 🙂

Such a cute puppy! Always love good meals that other people have cooked for me. Hope work settles down for you soon! Never fun to be overworked and underappreciated.

Glad to see you have your priorities straight (wine being the good stuff! 😉
Sorry work is frustrating, hope things are going a little more smoothly today. Looks like you had a wonderful dinner, care of Mary Jane.

Well if the puppy liked it. . . It has to be amazing.

What a delicious birthday meal! I hope your Tuesday was a little better than yesterday. I hate those cases of the Mondays.
