SUE:
Yesterday my best friend, Sue asked me to go shopping with her, so off we went. First we went to Walmart to get dog food, and then we just looked around for a while. I found a tiny skillet that holds one egg, so I bought that for the trailer. Mike is not much of an egg eater, and sometimes I like a scrambled egg for breakfast. Now I won't have to dirty a big skillet for one egg. I'm not much of a morning person, and don't like to cook when I first get up, so Mike usually eats cereal. Most of the time when I fix breakfast it is for our evening meal. We do that a lot, especially in the winter. Anyway thats the story of the new egg pan.
Groceries:
We didn't need much food yesterday so after the usual milk, bread etc... we ended up on the wine aisle. Imagine that, of course that's not unusual for us, because we like wine! Sue decided to get a bottle of Asti to christen the 5er. Sounded like fun to me!
Lowe's:
Next is was off to Lowe's to get wild bird food for Sue, and I wanted to look at the kitchen carts. After Sue got the food for the outside birds, we headed off to the furniture section. I was looking for a small light weight cart to use in the fiver. We found one that was perfect and about 18" by 18" square. It had 2 metal baskets underneath and a butcher block top. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the color and the price! The color of the wood was cherry and the price was $98.00!
The wood in the fiver is light oak so if I got it I'd have to paint it. I'm not sure I'd want to do that, and I don't know if it was worth more than $50.00! We'll have to see how much I make on my yard sale, maybe then I will get something like that.
Taco Bell:
We decided to stop and eat at Taco Bell, and we both got the chicken taco salad. It wasn't too bad and I called Mike and took his order and picked it up before we left. We had a nice talk (girl stuff) while we ate, and it was nice to get out of the house on such a dreary day!
5ER is Christened:
When we got back from Taco Bell we decided to go out to the fiver to have our Asti wine. So , Sue, Mike and I went out and got comfortable. Mike started opening the wine. POP! It opened and started bubbling up like a small fountain! All over a small part of the carpet and the kitchen floor! Mike moved as fast as he could, and got the bottle to the sink. He went to the house and got a towel to clean up the mess. We were amazed that the wine did that, because he eased the top off so easy! Sue looked like she was ready to cry! I thought it was so funny that I started laughing about it. I told her it that the fiver has to be lived in, and at least it was white and not red wine so harm done! She still felt bad, but the trailer had been truly christened! It seemed fitting to me! LOL! When we poured the wine into our glasses, only half the wine was left in the bottle! So the fiver had 2 glasses!
The kitchen floor is a little sticky, but that can easily be fixed, and we blotted up the wine from the carpet very well. We sat and talked until midnight, and then called it a night.

Oh the bubbles inside the cans/bottles. Our son was here the first week we moved in the condo and he dropped a can of coke it exploded on the new rug in the dining room. That was eleven years ago and the spots are still there even with commercial cleaning. That's truly a christening.
