Teetering Teetering

Edie has been recovering from a cold lately, and in the cutest froggy voice/snotty nose has been making her discomfort known. It's not the greatest time for Edie to be putting the terrible into 2, with the waking up and shouting at 4am and such, as Betsy is even more pregnant than she was yesterday. Just in case, we've schedule a pediatrician appointment for E to make sure nothing else is causing her frustration.

After dropping Edie off, checked into McD's for breakfast, I was hungry and couldn't go home and just needed to destress for a minute. Amazing how my parent's bringing me there as a kid has imprinted this on me.

Got laundry, cooking, some light housecleaning done while Mrs. B slept off the night before. I went to vote, kinda annoyed for seven spots there were....7 people running, all Democrats except for one, who was running as both a dem AND a Republican. I'm a strong believer in our civic responsibility to always vote no matter what, but this kinda pushed my patience. Went out to dinner with a knish-friend.

TODAY'S COOKING
Baked Ziti: Comfort food, not from a fast food joint. Followed Batali's recipe loosely. 2 lbs of mini ziti, 4 cups of sauce outta the freezer, 4 cups of besciamella cooked up on the spot, 2 lbs of moz ($17, the only 'expensive' part of this huge sheet of food), a head of basil plucked and torn right off the plant, topped off with whole wheat panko bread crumbs. Forgot the romano, oh well.
