I have had some really weird things happen in the past couple of days, I need to write about them for my own records...
Last night I was cooking dinner. I had just put ground turkey into the pan and was seasoning it. I have a large bottle of peppercorns that have a grinder on the top, so I was grinding away when suddenly the lid popped off. All of the peppercorns fell into the pan, on the counter and on the floor. There were peppercorns everywhere! That was a first for me, how do you take spices OUT of ground meat? I took out the meat, and washed the pan, but there was still pepper throughout the meat. It was an interresting meal, everyone had a small pile of peppercorns left on their plate when they were finished eating. (Steve says, no he had about 50!)
I know raw meat looks gross in pictures, but if you can tell, there's more pepper than meat in this pan. YUCK!A couple of days ago I was leaving the fitness center. It was about 8:00pm and dark outside. I had been working out for about an hour. There were 2 ladies and a trainer talking in the parking lot, and we were all leaving at about the same time. I went to the back door of my car and was putting my things in when I noticed that a van (not sure if it was the man or one of the ladies) was backing up towards me. My first thought was, there's an empty stall next to me, I'd be in trouble if the driver decided to back into the stall...he did! Well, it was backing up pretty fast, and kept coming towards me. I would have been pinned between my car door and the van. It got so close that I screamed and tried to move away, whacking my knee on the side of my car. I can't believe it didn't hit me, it was so close. When I screamed, the van stopped and drove away. I just stood there shaking, and I started to cry. I cried all the way home. I can't believe it upset me so much, but I seriously thought I was going to die. Dumb drivers.. :(
