Spouse is Home!

And he looks even skinnier! He said he had to hold his pants up going through security because they made him take off his belt. During his 4 hour layover in Paris, he left the airport and did a whirlwind tour of the city which included buying me a croissant. Do I have the best spouse or what? We ate it in Logan before getting a cab home.

It's so nice to have him back.

Don't you love how hubbys can just drop pounds without any work. My hubby two weeks ago was sad that I had to buy him the next size up in troussers and so he now is back to his 34s! Unfair. Do you get to go with him next trip? I would so be living in UK right now if my hubby were a uk citizen, have you ever thought of it?

To his credit, he walked A LOT when he was there. His calves were noticeably more muscular. He did step on the scale and found that he had gained weight, but he still looked so much smaller!

When Spouse and I first thought about living near each other, I was working on a graduate program so really needed to stay in the US. Plus I had an old cat that I was NOT going to chip, which would mean 6 months quarantine. It seemed like things would be easier for him to come here, plus he has more transferable work skills.

Then I did some research and found the only way we would be able to get him here, barring some miracle of an employer in the area leaping at the chance to sponsor him, was to get married. I'm not really a pro-marriage person, but I figured since the idea was to be together anyway, we might as well. And yeah, my proposal to him was just that romantic :)

The London Trip - LONG POST

The Doc and I had the following email exchange yesterday: The Doc: I just noticed, I can't find your England Report on your blog, you say you will tell people what happened but I can't find the actual info Teru: Hmm, I should put that up, shouldn't I The Doc: Only if you want to go into details about your booty call ;-) Teru: Hmmm, I'm still uncertain about how much information I want to share on the web. It might get me more readers though :) The Doc: Don't mind what you tell people, let them know how badly I was at sex, I don't care... tell them how you got ill and had to be cared for. tell them about the time I ran out of money and had to ask for NTL to put my money back into my account. you have my consent. Anything you want. But most importantly of all you MUST tell people how much I love you, and how much I smiled and how much we kissed in public. Oh and don't forget the meet and the reading bit. Since he said I could tell all, so ...

Squash Blossoms

I haven't planted any squash this year (although some sort of marrow or melon is growing in the compost heap) but I saw some squash blossoms at the farmers' market on Tuesday and thought I'd give them a whirl. We have found that in the summer we consume less milk, but have not actually cut back on our milk order. This has been leaving us with a lot of extra milk at the end of the week and I've been trying to find ways to use it. Last week I made yogurt 1 and a few weeks ago I did a fresh cheese with herbs.The cheese was really yummy and easy so I opted to try that again and make stuffed squash blossoms. I do not have pictures of the cheese-making process, but it was quite easy. Gather random herbs from the garden (I used oregano, basil and sage) Chop said herbs Put milk and herbs into a pot and bring to a boil. Add 1 cup buttermilk (I make it from powder) Add 1/4 cup vinegar - the curds will separate almost instantly. Drain curds in cheesecloth. Ad...

And so it begins again
