One Last Thing...

(I'm taking a cue from the latest PEOPLE magazine. On the last page, they have a feature called CHATTER and there is a bit on a celebrity where they ask her questions about the "last" thing. Since I finished the 30 Letters thing I thought I'd give this a try!)

LAST MEAL I PREPARED:
Easy peasy! I cook dinner almost every night. Tonight I made a stuffed pork roast with new fingerling potatoes in a mushroom cream sauce. And, yes, it was as good as it sounds. My siblings don't think I know how to cook. My husband begs to differ!

LAST DATE NIGHT I HAD:
A couple of nights ago, Alex and I went out for some coffee after dinner. We went to McDonald's, the drive through. But then we drove to Harbor Park and sat talking by the harbor while the lights from the docks and the moon shimmered on the water. It was quite beautiful and nice to get away for a bit. Last week, we went to a movie. We get out two or three nights per week - even if it's just for coffee and talking.

LAST BIG TRIP I TOOK:
We spent a few days in Chicago a couple of weeks ago but the last big trip was last October when we travelled abroad. I love traveling! I want to do more of it!

LAST ITEM I BOUGHT:
I just ordered a new duvet cover and pillow cases from Amazon. I would have gotten it at IKEA but they don't sell them on line! Now that's just wrong! Of course, a trip to IKEA sounds good to me. Since it's pretty far away I'll have to plan ahead but I can get all sorts of Swedish goodies there. Hmm, must make note of this...

LAST DESSERT I ATE:
I had an Edy's Tangerine Fruit Bar for dessert tonight but that doesn't really count. The last really great dessert I had was the Irish Chocolate Pudding at Ashling on the Lough here in Kenosha. OMG! This is not Bill Cosby Jello Pudding I'm talking here! This is a deep, creamy, dense, chocolaty pot of rich heavenly goodness topped with real whipped cream. GO! GO NOW! You must try this stuff!
