Which is just fine with us. Especially since, (much to the dismay of my brothers-in-law who have affectionately nick-named me "cable hater") we are about to cut our cable
So when my good friend Amanda was in town for the weekend I really wasn't too ashamed about planning to watch several movies on our TV from our Netflix "view instantly" via our Wii. If this sounds like a confusing process to you, it was for us too. We spent at least an hour trying to get the movie to play on our TV to find out later that I need a free DVD from Netflix that ships in one business day (one day too late for Amanda) in order to watch live Netflix movies on our Wii.
So our next best option was watching the movies on my work lap top. So this is how Amanda and I spent the weekend, curled up on the couch with kitty in our 80 degree apartment.
Notice the surround sound.
But let me tell you, the power of Food Inc. was not lost on my tiny lap top. If you haven't seen it, it will make you either want to become a vegetarian or buy and eat all organic food. After watching it I told Benny we were going to become vegetarians (much cheaper that way). That was until I went to Kroger today and my moral back bone became osteoporotic in the face of chicken on sale for $1.99 per pound.
Anyway, I ate organic bulgur wheat with organic button mushrooms for dinner tonight (no meat) since Benny still isn't home from Germany. Which, by the way, is a great single lady meal (or side dish for when the men are home). I'll post the easy and delicious recipe soon.
Haha...that's the way we watch videos most of the time! Once, we tried watching videos on Michael's iPod and that was a disaster!
ReplyDeleteHa! I know what you mean about the chicken friend! I was ready to buy organic when I went to Publix until I really saw the price in person. I chose to forgo the meat and just eat vegetables instead =)
ReplyDeleteI loved our weekend!
Yes I still want this recipe! I have eaten the bulgar wheat and mushroom dish and I want to make it too. :-)
