Enjoying the weekend

Had to go to work for a couple of hours this morning but the rest of the weekend is free to enjoy. It's been awhile but it's been hectic, been putting in 10 hr days at work but here i am. Last weekend i came across a recipe for key lime pie, which is one of my favorites, probably because it's tart as opposed to sweet, which i rarely eat. Tried it out, since we have plenty of lemons from the three trees in the backyard.

Here's the latest crop:

Used up almost all of them and the rest were made into lemonade. When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade :) The pie came out pretty good, although next time i'll probably use less than the suggested one cup of lemon juice but after it was left standing for a few days it lost some of the punch from the juice.

We tried a couple of slices and i think there's still some in the fridge. Took some to work a couple of times and i think it's time to throw it out. There's another recipe that uses cool whip and strawberries that requires no baking all you have to do is freeze it so maybe that's my next project.

Last weekend we went to see Eagle Eye. It was pretty good, i think it was over two hours long but it was one of those movies that keep your interest and you don't even notice the time going by. We still have those two movie passes that we got last time when the theatre sound system was all screwed up and they couldn't fix it. At least we got a free movie out of it. Maybe tomorrow we can catch one because today we are at home doing some organizing, you know, paperwork and stuff. There's some new movies coming out this weekend but since Halloween is this month, almost all of them are scary ones.

This week in tv viewing was okay since there was no new episode of House because of the presidential debate. Have to wait til next Tuesday. Heroes was pretty good on Monday but this thing keeps going and going, it's always "to be continued". I hope i don't get tired of that and decide it's not worth the effort like when i used to watch Lost. Maybe this will be different because it's cool since it has to do with superheroes. My next favorite day to watch tv is Thursdays because i watch smallville and supernatural. You know me, i'm a sci fi geek and proud of it. Recorded other shows to watch on the weekend since there's nothing on tv. Maybe i'll go watch those now.
