a deal a dayone of my favorite sites is woot.com. woot offers one deal a day, but there are limited quantities available, so more popular items run out more quickly. yesterday's deal was a dvd recorder that records onto dvds from tv, camcorders and other recording devices for $69.99. the day before that, woot offered two bluetooth earpieces for $25, which is a fabulous deal when one bluetooth in the store sells for a lot more than that. today's deal is a 31-piece car emergency kit for $7.99. this is an essential for every driver, as it comes with jumper cables (which will cost you more than $7.99 alone), tire pressure gauge, work gloves, electrical tape and screwdrivers, among other things. if you haven't checked out woot yet, you definitely need to.

the biggest loser: atlanta -- week 1i'm down 2 pounds. woo hoo! i really didn't think i'd lose that much because i busted my knee pretty bad this week, so i haven't been able to work out. surely i can lose close to 8 pounds by thanksgiving!
this video is hilarious. i'm going to have to figure out how we can train our cats to do it.

it's a girl!it's not me...yet. our friends mike and suze are having a girl! now, mike has been set on naming the baby genghis. his reasoning is quite interesting and humorous. however, now that they know the baby is a girl, genghis simply won't work. i was happy that suze is in the clear, but joe assured me that he and mike came up with a backup: gengha. yes. you heard me correctly. *shakes head* poor suze. :) i have this feeling, though, that mike will not get his choice for the baby's name. hehe. check out their pregnancy blog here. it's very entertaining.
so, congrats mike and suze! i've only met them once, but i can already tell they're going to be terrific parents.
i have been craving cheeseless tortellini lately. i haven't had it since college (man, i miss pasta day, which happens to be today), but for some reason i've been really wanting some. however, i've had quite a time finding it. none of the stores here, including the health food store, sell it. today, joe called harry's farmers market and found it! they have mushroom-filled tortellini with and without cheese. yay! i've never been to harry's, but i've been wanting to go. i will have to make a trip there sometime. joe will be stopping by tonight, though, to pick up my tortellini for dinner. while i was at the store getting the ingredients for the pasta i'm making for the potluck halloween party, i picked up veggies to make a nice salad to go with the tortellini. i'm getting hungry just thinking about it! hehe. maybe joe can see if they have cheeseless ravioli too...
