Happy Fat Tuesday Everyone! I imagine this is a festive time this year in New Orleans with things back up and running. I also can't imagine spending a Mardi Gras in that town. It might be one of my worst nightmares. I've spent a New Year's Eve in the French Quarter and that was enough madness for me. I can't even imagine the magnitude of this special New Orleans event!

So, that means I get to go to church tomorrow at lunch and return to the constant, "you have something on your forehead" comments! It's oh so clever. So, warning to all of you that forgot tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, when you see someone walk by with ashes on their head, don't be alarmed. They didn't just put out a 4 alarm fire or fall in the dirt or wipe their mascara on their face.

Had an interesting weekend. Drinking with friends, drinking with family. Did not leave the house AT ALL yesterday. The hubby and I were laughing when we went to lock up to go to bed last night and realized that we never even unlocked the front door. It was a lazy Monday remembering our former presidents and wishing others were gone too...I made Chicken Parmesan for the first time in my life for dinner last night. It was YUMMY! If anyone is interested I used Bobby Flay's recipe. It was simple and deelish. Try it out if you're a fan of the chicken parm.

Anyway, back at work and so glad it's a short week. I am sick of working lately and I'm gonna blame it on the weather. It's supposed to go up to about 50 later this week and I've never been more excited to be less cold in my life, except for the fact that I'm fat and this just reminds me that it will be 80 degrees sooner than I think and then I'll have to suck my fat ass into a bathing suit! OY...the treadmill is calling.

Have a great day everyone...
