nothing says happy fathers day like green beans

i made fathers day dinner at my place for my dad this year. this was the menu: company chicken (its the kind with corned beef and bacon) and then green beans with olive oil and garlic, mashed potatoes, rolls and salad and my dad accidentally drank a mountain dew in the fridge. this was the conversation.
natali: dad thats mountain dew
dad: natali i know
natali: dad that has caffeine
dad: thats ok
natali: dad are you going to get wired?
dad: yes
natali: (this part is just in my head) dad do you know what it means to be wired? what else does he know about...but i didnt press the issue because i bet my mom was uncomfortable with all that caffeine talk.
i decided i have put too much time into my apartment to ever consider moving. fortunately i learned i can comfortably fit five adults and a toddler around my coffee table. i sat on a stool by myself. i am sort of the least favorite. or the slowest to try and secure a good spot at the coffee table.
so now i am watching a lot like love now. the plot is that amanda peet has to have sex with someone after every break up to make sure she still has it and that person is always ashton kucher. they spit on each other in a chinese restaurant in between the sex. so yeah its a pretty good show i recommend it.

i thought this post was going to be all about your nephew bean wearing a green shirt. oh well - maybe next time.

natali said...

bean isnt my nephew. its a common mistake. but he looks great in green...

Chelsea said...

i was definitely confused about that. well, i hope the real green beans were good then

Colleen said...

green beans (the real or fake) and i have a lot in common. we both hate winter. you never see green beans sprouting through cold icy snow.
i don't know why i hate it.
but i LOVE your freakin apartment. i can't believe your whole fam fit around your little door table.

how come some weird little kid is in your house if he isn't related to you?

I hate Dave Mathews!
