The movie was totally a mixed bag.

Last night me and Em set out to go see our first drive-in movie. We paid 5 bucks and got to see a double feature of Halloween 2, and then The Hangover. We really didn't watch Halloween 2 because it was scary, so the first movie we just talked and ate snacks in our pajamas. Then the hangover was really funny and we paid attention to that one. If you haven't see it, go do it, because it was a really awesome and funny movie.

The only thing is, Em's parents got real neurotic and kept calling her and saying she had to be home by 11:30, even though the second movie didn't 'start until 10:30 and we were 25 minutes away. And then they were saying they were going to take her car away and all this stuff. Then this morning it continued. They were saying that they thought she was a blessing when she was born but now they just don't know what to think and all this stuff. She's 19. Leave her alone. Plus her parents totally love and trust me, and they knew where we were, and so what was the big deal? After hours of yelling at her today, all of a sudden her mom just dropped it and said nevermind, forget about the punishment. Talk about bi-polar.

Last night at the movie, I brought along whales, which are like goldfish crackers but generic, and I think they have more flavor. And they're cheaper =]. But all Em kept saying was how much she liked them and stuff. So today I went out and bought her some at the dollar store. Also, her favorite drink in the world is Dr. Pepper, and I found some popcicles flavored like Dr. Pepper for $1, so I bought those too. So for 2 dollars Em will have a good start to her first day of school tomorrow =].

Today we started making our own spaghetti sauce. We went to amish country yesterday and bought a whole shitload of tomatoes and green peppers and onions and garlic. So we are currently making our own spaghetti sauce and it is making the whole house smell good =]. Plus, it really didn't take too long or make too big of a mess.







That's my mom in her scrubby clothes cutting tomatoes =]






That's my arm! And my tattoo! We blended everything to get the sauce all smooth.




My mom teaching my sister, Renee, how to chop garlic.





It's been simmering in my kitchen for about 5 hours now. Tomorrow we get to put it in jars and store it for the winter. We're like squirrels =].
