Later that day Carrie walked back home and noticed the car wasn't in the driveway. She had a minor freak-out before realizing that she'd left it at the store the night before (after driving it over there for the Fashion Show stuff; she'd been driven home by Viki). It was funny becasue she didn't notice the car was gone when she:
- Left to walk to Linnea's
- Walked back to the house on the way to Starbucks
- Walked back past the house on the way back to Linnea's
She only noticed when she walked back to the house after that.
I worked on BF Books during the afternoon. Carrie went a little shopping. At 5:00 we drove back to the Tarbets' house together so as we could cook dinner for them. See, all this week people from the Bead Factory are taking turns making them dinner, seeing as how Linnea has the new baby and Jay still has a cast on his ankle. I made barbequed teriyaki salmon. Carrie made a salad. We also had leftover cornbread muffins and a bowl full of blue- and strawberreis. It was a really tasty dinner.
When I lit the barbeque, though, I wasn't paying attention and accidentally singed a couple of strands of my hair! Whoopsies! Nothing noticeable, though. Not like an eyebrow or anything.
A while after dinner the womenfolk (including Lena) went to Gretchen's Dad's Store and bought some vanilla iced cream to put on top of the apple crumble cake that Linnea made for dessert! 'Twas tasty, 'twas.
We got back home by 9:00 so Carrie could watch The Apprentice. Sigh. I'm really not enamoured of television programming right now.
Oh, and here is a video of a cat that is thoroughly unimpressed with a bunch of puppies:
