you know that gender role stereotype where the husband promises to be home in time for dinner, gets caught up at work, and arrives late? yeah - that was me yesterday. at 7pm, colette texted me to remind me that we had dinner plans and i quickly jumped on the shuttle with instructions to pick up tomato and feta on the way home. and when i finally arrived, hours late, looking a wee bit stressed from the madness of work, she swept up my bounty and whipped up a feast in 20 minutes flat! the only thing missing from the picture was a frilly apron and a rolling pin. and i thought, as i put my feet up on the couch and dived back into a spreadsheet, "i could get used to coming home to a wife."
all joking aside - colette's first roadtrip to skinny meal hit the spot! we used the leftover couscous i made last week, she grilled up some trader joe's cajun chicken, and made a refreshing cucumber, tomato, and feta salad. i probably stole her intended post by documenting it here - but it was so good, and i was so grateful to have a filling meal after scraping the bottom of the barrel at google (when you get to the cafe after 1:45pm, you're pretty much SOL...)
delicious - and definitely skinny!
we're a really cute couple, colette and i. :)
i know i do!
