Turkey Day! (minus the turkey)

This year CJ and I couldn't make it out to Vegas to be with family for Thanksgiving, but we made the best of it and decided to try and cook by ourselves. Instead of turkey we used cornish game hens, because we didn't need a big turkey, and also because they were only 2 bucks each. We made all the usual side dishes though, and it was delish! Even though we didn't get to spend the holiday with our family, it turned out to be a great day. I've decided that I actually am grateful for being here in Eugene. Yeah it's all new to me and a bit lonely at times(well only when I'm at home by myself), but CJ and I have really been able to focus on us. Not everyone gets the opportunity to get up and move to a new place, so I'm thankful that we were.

Honey, I'm home!

So yesterday was my first day at my new job. I am working for a property management company, which is just what I was looking for, because that was my favorite part of my last job. Yesterday also happened to be CJ's day off, so he got his first day all by himself! I was so surprised when I got home! As I walked through the door, I was greeted by my handsome fiance, saying "Welcome home, Baby!". Then he took me over to the table (well breakfast bar, we haven't bought a table yet) where I feasted on a delicious meal! He even gave me a choice of wine or juice (the beer is his of course). I could really get used to this ;)

BEST PURCHASE EVER!!!

So a couple months ago my coworker Danielle sent me this joke email with a little note attached that said, "This is for you, Molly!" thinking I would get a laugh out of this thing called the "Beer Belly". I took one look at it and knew that for me it was no joke, but that I HAD to buy it for CJ. So I went to the actual website, and found THIS BAD BOY:

And then they had one for the females too!
Let me tell you about these babies...

The dude one is a sling that you wear around your shoulders that hangs down by your belly, and has a pouch that can be filled with over a six pack of beer (or beverage of your choice) with a camelbak-type straw that goes to your mouth. The object is to wear this under your clothing, making your alcoholism invisible to the naked eye. All it looks like is a fat beer belly.

Then they made one for the lady boozer, but instead of a sling for a beer belly, it is a sports bra that has 2 pouches that holds over a bottle of wine with the same type of straw, making it appear that you have some nice Tig O' Bitties!

So the other day we went to a minor league hockey game just to get out of the house. We wore our babies to the game so that we wouldn't have to purchase the over priced beers they had for sale (still need a job). Here we are being super sneaky...

Like I said, BEST PURCHASE EVER!!!
