Cinco

Cinco de Mayo was a pretty chill and mellow time. We went over to Scott and Claudia. They live with one of her sister's and the sister's family. Along with the household was Claudia's parents and Scott's parents and an uncle. The food was delicious. Scott's mom brought over a 7-layer dip and some lasgana and macroni salad. She cans her own spaghetti sauce and tuna and all sorts of foods. They also make their own brandy. I was allowed to try some and it is SOOOO good. There is the alcohol bite but it's mostly like drinking fruit syrup.

In any case, we kind of all just gorged ourselves. There was cod, salmon, chicken, smoked pork. Pasta salad. Yumminess.

I left at around 10:30pm to get home for bed. Lance stayed a little later, probably spent more money than he should on video poker and drinks. He made it home though.

Until recently, I never used to eat cucumber. I didn't like it. The seeds grossed me out so I never indulged willinging. Every now and then, I would give it a try but still didn't like it.

Now though, I've been on a cucumber run. I like it with ranch dressing. I like it with salt and pepper. I like it. It's a good snack. It's healthy. It's refreshing. I'm totally going to be bringing cucumbers to outdoor parties. It's a great food to have around.

I don't know if Lance is going to go to Seattle this week. He said he was low on money and it's also been raining a lot lately.

In any case...I better get back to working.
