Weekend Updates

**In case you haven't seen this all over the papers, the gossip rags, the People type magazines and even the so called legitimate news, allow me to share.
This is the newest update on this stupid situation.
The famous TV chef Nigella Lawson was seen in an outdoor cafe eating and arguing with her husband. The paparazzi got a shot of them while the husband had his hands on her throat as he was strangling her. She was crying. The photo was plastered all over the media.
Today it was announced that this lovely man/husband filed for divorce stating the reason as "she did not defend his reputation to the public during the strangling incident"  
This came across the crawl this morning and Rick laughed and said, "Wow, what balls of this dude."     'enough said!

**Rick's knee isn't getting any better. He of course keeps saying it will and not to call the doctor.  I made him an appointment unbeknownst to him. By the time the appointment actually gets here Rick will by then be begging me for a doctors appointment. He'll probably be begging for a shot with a rusty needle at that point.

When that day arrives I will tell him it's already made and he goes next Friday morning at 8am.  He'll tell me I'm wonderful and I will roll my eyes.
Why are men such babies and macho babies at that?  Seriously frustrating!!  
He's 58 - when the hell is he going to catch on?  I said that out loud to my mother yesterday and she laughed and said she was still waiting. My dad is 85. Guess that means it never happens. No wonder men die sooner than women. 

**Rick saw a show where this woman melted dark chocolate and poured it into ice cube trays and inserted 1/2 a strawberry. Well guess what he made this weekend. Honestly this man is killing me. I moved them out to the fridge in the garage. I can hear them screaming for me to eat them if in the kitchen fridge. Out in the garage their screams are muffled. I can block them out most days.

He didn't have strawberries at the time so he used the cherries we had. I asked him about the pits. He said they'd be fine. Damn him. They were fine, just damn fine!  He used a 60% cocoa dark chocolate by Ghiradelli.  He liked them so much he then bought strawberries and did the same. We have a lot of them. I hate him. They are so fucking good. 

So out to the garage they had to go!!  I could eat the whole tray. I do not need to eat the whole tray. I prefer when he makes crab dip or shrimp things. I hate seafood but I sure don't hate dark chocolate. I don't need him making anything encased in chocolate. 
He was so proud he took pictures. These are the cherries.

 Yummy bite size pieces to hold by the stem. The strawberries were awesome as well. But he didn't take any pictures.
 Anyone need a little chocolate?
C'mon over and clear out the fridge in the garage would ya? Help an addict out.

At first I wrote, I'll come eat your cherry. But, well, no, I won't. I'm sorry. But I will eat cherries encased in chocolate. I'll bring you my tequila as payment.

ANYWAY, I do hope Rick's knee gets better (but not so good that he'll try to get out of the appointment). And the chef divorce is just perplexing. Really? You want me to defend you when you choked me out? THIS IS MY TICKET OUT, ASSHOLE.

Arnebya...ha ha funny girl. I'll give you the code to our garage and you can help yourself to all the berries in chocolate out there!! (A few dozen) No tequila necessary. :-)

Carolyn said...

oh those look GOOD!! yummy! but totally dangerous. :)

Ms. A said...

That wouldn't last long here. Chocolate rarely does.

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

Carolyn - they are indeed yummy and they are dangerous - I am on the 2nd floor in my office and I can here the little shits out in my garage!!

Cora - hence why they are in my garage. Stop on by people and have a piece or two or three. :-)

OMG drooooolll I can't have any chocolate in the house I'd eat them all too!

mamahasspoken said...

Hard to believe but chocolate is NOT one of my favorite foods, hence they would be safe here. Well, take that back, hubby loves chocolate, he would eat them, he doesn't need to eat them thanks to being diabetic, so forget it, not safe at my house either.....
Hope Rick goes to the doctor when the time comes, men can be such babies!

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

Bonnie - well since you are surrounded by testosterone you are the experts on those big babies!!

Mike said...

I go to doctors. I just don't pay much attention to them.

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

Mike...yep this is why men die young.

I'm terrible about going to the doctors, I just hate it. I'll do anything rather than go.

I was interested to read the statement by Nigella's husband about how he wasn't strangling her but just had his hands around her throat to get her attention. Nice one. So, if that's true, how come she left the restaurant crying? And if that's what he does in public, I'm dam sure it's much worse behind closed doors.

It's interesting that so far Nigella has not commented or left any statement at all.

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

Joe, great comment about what is being done behind closed doors. I think you hit the nail on the head with that one!!

Ok, the cherry jokes are all out of the bag so I wont go there lol. And yes men are genetically programmed to never admit weakness, and a doctor equals weakness. Me, I am just lazy. I think I need to see a doc about this wrist problem but it isnt that bad and besides I just dont feel like going

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

honkeie2 - okay since the cherry jokes have been played I will stoop to that level becuase the first thing I thought of was, "you'll go to the dr. when you can't play with yourself anymore due to wrist pain."

yep I went there.:-)
