Chicken two ways and birds on soap. Oh, and the dog park.

I finally opened one of the cute soaps that Angelina gifted me. I didn't want to, it was so cute!
I'm glad I did though, because I found out that there's a cute little bird etched into each bar!
The soap is olive leaf and coriander scented, and I'm in love with it. I want to stock up for my guest bathroom!
This post isn't going to be lengthy or chatty, I'll save that for another day. I've been working a lot, and that combined with housework (which never ends) and yardwork (which is just beginning) and endless puppy attention time is wiping me out! It's going to take me a couple of weeks to normalize.
My dishwasher is broken, and that makes me sad. It smells like fire and spits water. I'm afraid of it, it's like a deleted scene from Mr. Mom. Only with me, not Michael Keaton.
The other night I made this tasty little chicky boob.
It's a chicken breast pounded thin, cooked through and then topped with sliced tomato and feta cheese and broiled for a few minutes. I made a quick side of orzo pasta with oregano, zucchini, and lemon zest. Awesome.
The next night I had chicken left over from the night before, so I made curry. A girl I work with, Grace, invited me to a really nice dog park in Pensacola, and on the way there we passed an Indian restaurant, so I got a hankerin'. The dogs had a great time at the park, Malo and Maggie got along well with Grace's Border Collie and Border Collie/Labrador mix. I forgot the camera, otherwise I'd be posting tons of pictures of the pups being silly. I just need to get another one and keep in my car.
Work is going pretty well. I hope to pick up some more bar shifts (actually making drinks) but since I'm new I guess I need to prove to everyone that I can hang, hahaha. I've been working register and the drive through window, which I don't mind at all, so no complaining here. I worked today from 0500-0930 (a "princess shift" as my boss called it) and tomorrow I have a real shift, 0730-1600, and I'm off Friday and Saturday, then open again on Sunday. I love how working is making the time fly by, Ricky will be home in 5 weeks!
I'm off to shower, finish bed linens (it's Wednesday) and watch The Purple Rose of Cairo.
And possibly have some wine. Orrrr liquor.
Goodnight!
