No surprise here:
I had seven, because I had three earlier and that makes ten, which sounded like a nice, round number to me.
For dinner I made this zucchini and goat cheese pasta:
I was a little nervous because the recipe called for more salt than I’ve ever used in my life, and also because I cut the amount in half and it hardly looked like anything when I got done, but it was pretty filling because of the cheese. If I made it again, I’d add more vegetables and some shrimp or something, but all in all it was really, really good. Goat cheese, though. I mean, how can you go wrong?
And now I am enjoying some wine because it’s Thursday:
That’s all for tonight, unless I can convince Chris to run after the Mister Softee truck next time it goes by. Highly unlikely.




Mmm, more figs!! Excellent!!
Haha, I remember the Mister Softee trucks – brings back memories :0)
I was wondering when the figs would make a come back.
That pasta looks amazing. The goat cheese gets me every time.
i need to get some goat cheese! looks fantastic…
love your rationale for the figs
That pasta looks amazing. Where did you get the recipe?
mmmm so yesterday during my lunch break i was walking through the neighborhoods near my office and chatting on the phone to my mom and suddenly i hear the sweetest sound ever… ICE CREAM TRUCK MUSIC!!!!!! you better believe i chased that thing down. i think the guy was amused by my enthusiasm considering i’m 25 and not 12 like most of his patrons.
VG –
I love Mister Softee. If he was real, I’d marry him and eat soft serve ice cream ALL. THE. TIME.

You had no faith in me! I didn’t have faith in myself, either.
Kristie –
Me too. Except when I think about the fact that it comes from goats. Then I freak out a little.
Lindz –
I can rationalize any food.
Meghann –
I linked to it – click on the word “this” before zucchini. Sorry, the links on this template don’t show up very well.

I love seeing older people chase down the ice cream truck. Not that I don’t do it myself, and I’m sure I look just as funny, but it’s hilarious, really. People in my neighborhood do it all the time.
haha… no no. I hadn’t read the first post when you bought them so I thought this was the first time they had reappeared in your blog… it had been awhile. Don’t fret, I do have faith in you.
