Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Chess Pie!

Ok, so today I have to compile two firsts into one.  Fell asleep when I was putting Sydney to bed at 9pm last night and I figured if I was that tired I should probably just GO to bed, so I did.  That is almost a first, but not quite.  Also had an "almost" first today as I almost hit a deer.  It happened when I was following this guy who I will nickname "Crazy" after leaving a wonderful party at Hillridge Farms.  So, he was weaving all over the road and I thought he was old.  But when I pulled up next to him to pass him at a light I saw that he was quite young, had a new jersey plate, a cigarette in hand, and was talking on his cell phone.  Now, any one of those three things can cause bad driving, but all three together?  Deadly.  Like I said.....CRAZY!!!  (No offense to you all from N.J., love ya!)

So, yesterdays first was easy.  Took the kids to see Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs.  GREAT movie.  Would see it again in a heartbeat.  Found the poo flinging monkey to be particularly funny, but hey, who wouldn't???  Thankfully the girls sat between Joe and I and lucky for me, "Crazy guy #2" was sitting a few seats down from Joe and not me.  I heard strange noises coming from that side of the theatre and looked over to see him digging for gold with both hands.  Yes, I almost vomited, but again, I think that was probably a normal reaction in this case.....

Todays "first" came unexpectedly at party # 2!  Lucky for me, after pizza (uh yes, again, for the second party as this is what was served at the first), they had Chess pie.  I guess maybe technically it is called Chocolate Chess Pie????  Well, whatever it's called it tasted so sinful I felt like I should go to confession after I finished licking the fork and the plate.  Where has this thing been hiding and why hadn't I ever heard of it let alone had it???  That was the BOMB!!  

So, in the nick of time, got todays FIRST over with by the hair of my chinny chin chin.  Wax anyone??  : )
