Monday, Monday...

Ok. Sorry. I guess my last post may have been a little darker than intended. Yes, it was a super crappy week - but, life moves on and things are good. I promise. Sorry to vent and make anyone worry.

The weekend ended on a high note though. Here is a peek...

9 days. Yep, our ski resort opens in 9 days. I still am not quite sure where summer went. Heck, I am not sure where fall went even. What a blur. Saturday morning I went to our local ski swap more to chat with friends than to actually shop. It was fun.

This was a low point of the weekend. MCB dropped his phone on the kitchen floor. He has insurance, he ordered a new one. But even replacement phones are expensive. He was upset - rightly so. Sad.

My new favorite dinner. MCB is really stepping up his game. Elk bolognese with mascarpone cheese. nomZ as we say around here. Delish.

And this was Sunday night. A friend brought over a Grolla. Never heard of it? Me neither. Apparently this is a popular thing when you are on a hut trip in Italy. I know, so random. Mike (the friend) is a guide. He picked one of these grolla things up on a recent trek. It is made of wood. You fill it with grappa and coffee, you light it on fire, it has four spouts. You cover the spouts and drink. It was weird. And certainly not something I expected to do while watching football. I liked it though. You learn something new everyday. I will hopefully be sharing the grolla again soon.

How was your weekend?
