Last night I had the idea to try getting something new to cook. I thought, hmmm... pad thai... I think I can handle that. So I picked up the various things needed for it including some tofu, which I have never cooked with. Tomas and I split up in the store to get various things and he took the cart with Rhiannon and the tofu with him. When we met up at the checkout he told me something smelled horrible. I caught a whiff of it on him and began to hunt through the groceries. Finally I tracked it down to the tofu which had (probably via Rhiannon) sprung a hole in it package and was pouring out it's liquid all over the rest of the groceries.
The stench which came from that nefarious fluid was the worst thing I have ever smelled in my life. The people behind us were retching, we were retching, the checkout lady was retching. We turned it into the people at the store, went home and decontaminated. Thus ends my tofu experiment.
Someone please tell me that was a seriously spoiled container of tofu because I am quite close to never touching the stuff again. *shudders*

Our 401k money came through today. I plan on getting a sofa. Not a very expensive one but believe it or not it will be the first piece of furniture I've bought since we've been married. Furniture was never as much fun as computers or dvd players but since I'm a mommy now I feel compelled to own things like sofas and tables and chairs. It's weird. Problem is, I've never thought much about buying one so I don't have any idea what I want in a sofa. Actually overall I don't have much of an interior decorating sense. . . or an exterior one or much of any kind of sense of style at all. It just isn't my thing. I know I don't want something that looks like a florist vomited on it and I want something comfortable and it has to hold up ok to children and a dog. I suppose it's time to start looking at things. Now where should I start looking? Arg.
I'm glad the money came already though. It's nice to not have to worry so much about Christmas plus I can place my huge Lush order which will include many Christmas presents.

Rhiannon has decided to rename Isadora "Lola". We don't know where she heard that name or why she chooses to call Isadora that. Weird child sometimes.
