Day 3

Tuesday, first lazy day of my marriage (well, for me anyway). Husband was back to work, and I set about to familiarize myself with Enterprise. Since we did not have time on Monday to grocery shop together at the nice, new Dothan Publix, I found myself grocery shopping alone at the not nice, not new Enterprise Wal-Mart. Actually, it wasn't too bad. Then home to start unpacking, which will be hard to do until our roommate Zach Mako moves out. But I was able to get some stuff hung up in the closet, since sweet Husband moved his stuff out into the hall closet and onto shelves.

Next, it was time to cook my first meal as Mrs. Weaver! Since I have a brand new crockpot, I decided to try out my recipe for Bill's Famous Roast Beef & Gravy. This is how to make it:

4 lbs Chuck Roast
1 onion, sliced into rings
1 can cream of celery
1 can cream of mushroom
2 beef buillion cubes
2 cups water
1 package Lipton onion and mushroom soup

Place onion rings in bottom of slow cooker. Seer chuck roast (good luck with this part!) and place on top of onions. Mix up remaining ingredients and pour on top of roast. Cover and cook for 8 hours on low.

I also added carrots and mushrooms because I didn't feel like making salad.

In the meantime, a few solicitors came by hocking magazines. Since I have Husband's key, I kept checking the door, thinking it was him coming home for lunch. Somehow they saw or heard me, because they would wave when I looked through the peephole, forcing me to open the door and actually talk to them.

Now I did not want to keep checking the door, but I also do not like leaving the door unlocked. However, I quickly realized a solution:



Now I could work on my mashed potatos in peace with the door unlocked. Somehow I timed the mashed potatos perfectly to coincide with Husband's arrival home. And managed not to point a gun at him!

The result of my recipe?




One happy Husband =)

Awkward smile, as promised.
