So...
What happens when I'm left to (somewhat) my own devices?I got a puppy.
A shar-pei puppy!
For those of you who don't know, shar-peis were bred to be bull-baiters once upon a time in China, so we told Aurora he was a Chinese dog. She therefore decided he should have a Chinese name, and since Avatar is so near and dear to her heart, and the new pup has the same coloring, she decided to name him Appa. Its quite appropriate actually.
Those who know me, are not surprised.
See, we've just gotten Clio to start (pretty much) sleeping through the night, so we need more chaos in our lives.
And what happens to Kevin when he is left to his own devices?
Well, if you tell him before you leave that there is a TUPPERWARE container of (delicious homemade by my sister) mac and cheese in the fridge for him, he will go into the fridge at lunch time and grab the first piece of tupperware he sees that has vaguely white stuff in it. He will not question the fact that there appears to be no noodles, tomatoes or cheese in this container. It is TUPPERWARE, therefore, it must be the right one. He will then microwave that container, and when the white stuff oozes out (very much NOT like mac and cheese), he will call me, and ask if mine oozed out as well. I say no. He will then shrug, and take a big bite of the warm, white, gloppy mess with no noodles, cheese or tomato in sight. He will then spit out the microwaved butter cream frosting, and call me so that he can BLAME me for telling him the mac and cheese is in a TUPPERWARE container, when in fact it was in a GLASS BOWL.
I, apparently, am a bad person who deliberately deceives her husband with cleverly disguised butter cream frosting.
And of course, Happy Birthday Mom. You're psycho, but we love you anyway. And remember- you didn't win the Craziest Mom award! You came in 2nd!

It wasn't gloppy.
It was crispy. And when I came down from that sugar high, I crashed hard. It was like legal crack.

...whereas he should have known to look for tomatoes? In mac&cheese? I'm sorry, I'm going to have to side with him on this one: I would choose tomato-less whitish stuff over tomato-ful whitish stuff if I were searching for mac& cheese.

We'd had the mac and cheese the night before! He had seen the tomatoes!

There were no tomatoes left in it from the night before.
Also, she told me that it was "in the tupperware." So I grabbed the only tupperware in the fridge.
