Eggcellent

Man oh man, today has been a big day in the Wigley household. After getting up this morning and easing into the day with a little I Found the Gown and a Caribou, I went over to Natalie's house to drop off some photos and the spare key I had during our road trip. Her mama's going out to visit this weekend, so we figured she could just bring the photos out and bring my iPad, which had gotten left behind, back here. We chatted and then I was off to Target. For maybe the third time in my life ever, I went into Target and left without buying anything. Blasphemy! I had gone to look at the new Shops at Target collections, but there was nothing that really caught my eye, so I just left. Then I went to Office Depot to get a trapper keeper and folders for my upcoming stage managing duties. Finally, I drove out to Maple Grove to go to Nordstrom Rack for leggings. After an awkward encounter with a middle-aged man in his car as I was walking into the store, I was pleasantly surprised at the selection at this Nordstrom. Usually I just go to the one at MOA, but this one is really close and has a good jean selection. I got 2 pairs of leggings, and 3 pairs of tights. Hooray!

Some homegrown cherry tomatoes from our backyard

After a quick stop at home, my mom and I were off to run more errands. We had discovered today that my passport expired this month, so to begin we went to Wayzata to get some photos taken for that. After being told to not smile, but have a "neutral" expression, we got those taken care of in about 10 minutes. Then we headed to Ridgedale, and got my new passport forms and my mom's license renewal done in less than an hour, which is unheard of. Usually the line there is so long and so slow, that it takes at least an hour or two to get in and out; but not today! Then we went to Walgreen's and got flu shots (merp), and to reward ourselves got Cherry Berry froyo. After froyo, we made a snap decision to go to Foresome to check for Minnetonka Moccasins, and behold! They had the pair I wanted for cheaper than Macy's! They also carry Frye boots, which is my main thing I'm asking for this year for Christmas, and they can order you any kind you want! We also get about 15-20% off everything there because my dad is somehow a VIP member. Super rad.

The old and the new

Here's where the eggcitement really began. It was then that my mom remembered that she had accidentally left the stove on with some eggs boiling. Ruh roh. We rushed home to be greeted with the smell of burnt eggs and smokiness. Luckily, nothing caught on fire, so then I, at least, was able to see how hilarious this was. We had an eggsplosion! One of the eggs had just exploded out of the pan, while the other three were so burnt that when touched with a spoon, they crumbled to ash. Our house smells pretty bad, but the whole eggsperience was pretty eggxilerating.
