This is for all you girls, about twenty-five.

All around the world,

This one's for the girls.

So, I admit, I have another country song that I'm willing to enjoy and sing along to. Embarrassing isn't it? I guess I'm letting Texas get under my skin (who would imagine I'd ever start liking tex-mex too!). At least this one isn't "Beer for my horses" and "Its 5 O'Clock Somewhere." And I no longer have to feel guilty about enjoying the Dixie Chicks, because they've decided to call themselves a rock band (even though, as Jay Leno pointed out a few nights ago, they are probably the only rock band that has a banjo and a fiddle).

The Rice crew team is doing this "rent-a-rower" thing for 4 hours of labor of my choice. I'm thinking maybe I'll recruit them to remove my posionous and/or ugly bushes. Its cheaper than some of the quotes I've gotten from the lawn services.

Sarah pointed out we're going to be leaving for Greece in two weeks. Yeah!! I am so excited. There are so many things I want to see there, I don't know how to squeeze it all in. (I had forgotten until I read a travelogue about Delphi and Meteora! And there's Athens. And Santorini. And quiet little islands with picturesque fishing villages.) Greece!!!

I tried a recipe in my new cookbook (thanks Grandmother Cutri!) and scalded myself with hot oil last night. But the food was yummy! I am probably going to try another recipe tonight.

My plan is to veg out again this weekend. Mow the lawn (which really really needs it and my new lawnmower has finally arrived at the store). And go to the Astros game with my branch. That's about it.
