Noviembre-Novembre-Novembro

That's November to those of you who don't recognize cognates in Spanish, French, and Portuguese. :) I can't believe that it's almost Thanksgiving, but it will definitely be nice to have a nice, long holiday weekend.

Pete and I had a pretty low-key weekend. Friday we got some Applebee's to go and it was delish. They were so quick! It was ready in 13 minutes and as soon as we drove up they were out to the car. Recommended! We watched some Gopher hockey goodness and enjoyed their first victory in Duluth since 2003. Yay Gophers!

Saturday we ran some errands and made the obligatory Target run. We got a jump on our Christmas shopping and picked up a gift for a wedding we're going to in December. We're so on our game! Then last night we went to see "Borat" at the Southdale AMC. We both enjoyed it and thought it was funny. Unfortunately, we had to sit way up front and my eyes had a tough time adjusting to the hugeness of the screen. After the movie, we went to dinner at the Good Earth restaurant in the Galleria. It was good, but the dessert selection was disappointing to say the least. Pete was having the carrot cake, and I wanted the pumpkin cheesecake but they were out. So I changed my order to the chocolate cherry bread pudding. Out again. I ordered the pumpkin cake. No dice. Seriously. So Pete was kind enough to share his carrot cake with me.

So now I'm gearing up for another week of school and school. On Saturday for the first time I ran into kids from school outside of school. I wasn't really expecting to see them (there were about 5 of them all together), but it was fun to see them.

Pete and I are going to walk Potato around Lake Nokomis here pretty quick. I hope we can find a house we like in that area. I would love to live there and I'm getting pretty excited to get into a house. Next weekend Fred-0 and I are all alone because Pete's deserting us to go to Madison to watch hockey.
