(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes the dessert. (3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.

You don't have a deadline either, you start when you want and finish when you want. Sounds like so much fun. Good luck to everyone that entered it :)

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you just don't want to do anything. I want to cross stitch but just can't be bothered :(. Am too tired to do any. I am going uptown soon and am gonna get miss 10's snow white framed for her birthday which is on the 23 of this month. Miss 11 will be 12 tomorrow 6/11. Got her lots of things. She loves Hannah Montana and High School Musical so have got her s few of them. I did a bit on her HAED QS Girly Gothic yesterday but just couldn't be bothered doing any more. I feel bad, as i'm always starting another one and never getting any done on her one. I think i wil have to force myself to do her HAED. I brought some Barbara Ana Designs charts from her newsletter and i love them all. These are what i got, don't know what i will do yet.
