Stupid Hot / Silly Family

[lydamorehouse]

 My computer claims it's ONLY 98 F / 36 C out there, but there's this whole "heat index" thing and so I'm just hiding indoors in our two room "cool room." 

I felt really smart this morning because, when it was only in the 70s F/20s C this morning, I pre-made dinner. I knew that my choice was going to be somewhat unpopular tonight since it's a bit on the "heavy" side for such a warm day. My thought (and hope) was that my family would just be glad to have something that they could just pop in the microwave, maybe throw together a salad with, and have done. Alas. No one in my family likes Shepherd's Pie as much as I do. My sense is that Mason will still eat it, but Shawn is grumbling about mashed potatoes.(She eats hardly any veggies and now she's off certain kinds of potatoes.)

There is other food in the house. My family will not starve, I just need to roll my eyes at these two. 

What a bunch of goofs.

I don't know if it was as hot and humid in Chicago as it was here, but even if it wasn't I don't blame you for skipping a meal in the heat.

it was quite hot and humid here! but if you had made me some shepherd's pie, i'd have made the effort--i didn't have the energy to go downstairs and make something for myself when i could turn on the AC in my bedroom and lie down.....
