Pup tent



I'm so excited at my new tent. Preston's not so excited, he's bored. Silly dog. It's raining again, so I pitched the tent in the living room. Retail price $270. On sale for less than $90, including the matching footprint. It was like a swarm of locusts descending upon these tents at REI. My wily ninja skills allowed me to avoid a lot of swatting and elbowing, stealthily appearing at the register with both the merchandise and myself unscathed.



Risotto night again. Hovering over a steaming pot stirring for a long time- perfect for cold wet nights. I like making risotto because by the time the risotto is done, I'm already sloshed from dipping into the wine bottle.



Risi pisi mushy piggy. Mushroom risotto with peas and procuitto. Yum yum yum.



Did I tell you I like playing in my tent? I've been futzing around inside the tent all night. I wanted to be a cub scout when I was little. Something to do with Yogi Bear and Boo Boo. Now I'm making up for lost time. I think I'm emotionally stunted at six years old. No matter. I just know that I'm happy when I sit in the tent.
