Meg has informed us that we will in fact, be eating these. Yes ma'am!
Just wait until you see all the, the...em, errr, ahhhh. well, the crap goodness that's packed inside these things. I'll post a vlog of the entire ordeal lovely meal once it's all said and done. We have also been informed that we'll be doing a considerable amount of push ups should we not wish to partake in our government sponsored feast. After all, they're "Warfighter Recommended, Warfighter Tested, Warfighter Approved™" I guess, if all those warfighters can eat them, then a blogger, her British hubby, and their four year old can manage to choke one down enjoy one as well!
A lot of you have asked if Meg is enjoying the rest of her leave, here in NY. I'd say so. One of the first things she did was look at our lawn and shake her head...
Hard to believe it's already Wednesday and by Sunday afternoon she'll be winging her way towards the UK where she'll be stationed until she deploys to the middle east in the next couple of months. So, we're enjoying every single second of having her home with us. This is despite the fact that she's had to put up with a whiny mom who has one of the worst sinus colds she's ever had, and a little sister who is so happy to have her big sister home again that she's been bouncing off of the walls almost continuously since Meg stepped foot in the front door.
The drive back from Maine was bittersweet to say the least. Maine is every bit as special to Meg as it is to me and she was hit by the realization that she probably won't be back in the lobster state for two or three years.
On the way back towards NY, on Sunday morning, Meg and I climbed all over the rocks at Nubble Light in York, and then just sat there and inhaled the salty sweet perfume of the Atlantic ocean and didn't need to say much because we were both thinking the same thing...how much we hated leaving.
At some point our goal is to make Maine our real home again. I don't know when, but I do know that we will. Until then, no matter where we are Meg, you always have a home with us...we'll do our best to make "home" wherever we are!
P.S. I know I was supposed to post Part II of, "It's Just a Boob" today. I completely forgot. It'll be up later tomorrow!
