I've Been Poisoned!

I have been pretty lucky for the past 27 years but that luck ran out yesterday when I realized I had gotten food poisoning. Ugh, it was NOT fun at all and I am just now, about 29 hours later, feeling pretty normal again. So, while I was trying not to die yesterday I was otherwise having a nice evening. I made dinner for my family who came over for dinner and a movie - I finally got to make sloppy joes for my parents! I fell in LOVE with this recipe I found online, it's easy and super delicious and it seemed to be a crowd pleaser! Here's the basic recipe, I don't measure anything - just mix and taste:

Emily's Sloppy Joe Recipe - Found Somewhere online

Brown ground beef in frying pan - drain

Add chopped green pepper and onions - continue cooking so the veggies soften up a little

Add Ketchup, Yellow Mustard, Brown Sugar and Garlic Powder - mix and let simmer for about 10 minutes. 

We eat them open-faced on hamburger buns - delicious!

On a more positive note - I get to check off two of the things on my summer to-do list! In case you missed it, I blogged about it earlier this week (here).

My mom and I went to the Plymouth Farmer's Market yesterday, I was so excited to go and got some decent deals on produce. I bought strawberries, blueberries, grape tomatoes and fuji apples for $11.50! So far we've sampled everything and it's been delicious! I plan on going back in a few weeks when they're up and running again.

I guess that even though I spent most of the weekend feeling awful some good things happened too:

• Our apartment is relatively clean
• I put up a bunch of pictures that I have been procrastinating on 
• I finished Season 6 of How I Met Your Mother
• I went to a nice bridal shower and one of the favors was Bath & Body Works hand soap and we TOTALLY needed soap!
• I sold some old stuff that I've been trying to get rid of on EBay (although I still couldn't sell my wedding dress or my Keurig)
• I had a nice time with my family last night

I think that's all for now - I plan on laying low and cuddling with Ally for the rest of the evening.

Happy Sunday!
