I didn't write last week because I took the day off to have a four day weekend with my girls. Priya is always bugging me that I go to work every day and tell her to invent something really useful so we're independently wealthy and I can stay home every day. She's still working on it. I won't forget any of you when I'm rich.
The weekend was fantastic. Friday was spent taking Mirinda to kindergarten which was a strange feeling. She was nervous to go in and I wanted to take her to the movies, but we both made it and she had a great day at school. That night took the girls to see the live action Aladdin, and holy crap that thing is a horrible piece of garbage. Remember everything that Robin Williams did that was so brilliant and funny? Well Will Smith is going to do a quarter of that and make it not as funny. Remember how Jafar was scary? Well now he's a dead behind the eyes guy that you wish would go away cause he's annoying. Remember how the Sultan was this really good comedic relief and this really nice father figure. Now he's a wooden man that can barely move his mouth. Remember the movie Hitch? You could pretty much call this the sequel to Hitch with the way Will Smith plays it. I was not happy. I haven't been happy with most of the live action remakes though. I thought Cinderella was good. That's about it. I'm worried for Star Wars.
On Saturday we went on an adventure to Park City. I just wanted to explore. The girls loved it. Their favorite part was going to the Olympic Park and watching the skiers do jumps off the ramps into the pool. If they didn't do a flip, the girls were very upset. If they did a flip, they were cheered and clapped. It was adorable.
On Monday we went to Lagoon. It was very hot, but the girls loved it as usual. Went to the Biergarten for lunch again. By the way, we did an episode of that on the podcast. Go give it a listen. Then rate us and review us. Please. I'm begging.
Yesterday we went to the State Fair. It's sad how far down hill the fair has gone. No one goes anymore. Next week will be more busy. If you haven't gone in a while, pick a day, go to Smith's for discount tickets, and go. Seriously it is a lot of fun. Get some really horribly unhealthy food, walk around, buy something you don't need. Just enjoy it. If more people went they'd probably put more money into it. This year they have fried fat boy ice cream sandwiches. I had jalapeno lemonade last night and it was delicious. We're going back again on Monday. To eat more bad food.
Here's a pro garden tip. If you want to plant cucumbers, cantaloupe and honeydew, those are all excellent things to plant. Whatever you do though, don't plant them all right next to each other. I have so many melons right now, and all of them taste like cucumbers. The plants intertwined with each other somehow, and now I've got cucumber melons. The problem is they don't taste good. Otherwise I'd sell the patent and Priya wouldn't have to work so hard to support her father. If anyone has always wanted a melon that tastes like a cucumber it's your lucky day.
As always thanks for reading! Go check out our podcast please. We'd love some feedback, good or bad.
