Smoke Detectors and Tasti D Lite

We had a low key MLK weekend. I was complaining to D that we didn't do anything "blog-worthy". D jokingly told me to post about him replacing four smoke detectors (yes 4!). So, here you go:

Too bad I don't have a picture of him actually installing it. This one in particular, in our bedroom, was difficult because the ceiling goes up higher than a normal ceiling. I heard some sounds of frustration, but it ended with success.

We tried out a new place called Tasti D Lite. Their claim is that it is not ice cream, and it is not yogurt. That leaves me to wonder what exactly it is.

This picture reminds me that we need to cut n's hair. :)


We shared chocolate macaroon and mango yogurt (I guess they do serve yogurt also). The employee helping us was very enthusiastic/friendly, and directed us to a big sign and told us to look at all of their low calorie options. D was more interested in the sign so he could pick out one of the most high-calorie options (the yogurt)!

Have you noticed the trend of menus listing the calories next to all of the entrees? It is supposed to make everyone more health-conscious, right? Well, it has the opposite effect for D. Last week, D scanned the calorie counts on a restaurant menu just so he could pick out one of the more calorie-rich entrees. Oh, to be a runner!

The rest of the weekend was filled with going to the park, researching flooring options and watching television (football for D and Golden Globes for me).
