Off Topic Tuesday?

So any faithful readers I may have, have probably been extremely bored waiting for me to post something.

Ready, kids? Okay. Because I'm feeling totally social right now, and none of my friends are available to hang out, so now you're going to get to read all of my musings.

I am the worst at decision making. And I don't mean that in a trainwrecky way. Or maybe I do? Depends on your definition I guess. Did I mention my husband and I have been on opposite schedules for over a year now? I work days, he works nights, I get to spend maybe 36 good hours with him over the weekend, and there's no end in sight for this. I'm not a huge fan of this for many reasons, one being that he did a majority of the cooking. I promise these two points will tie in together.

I would love to do more cooking. I've kinda been forced to in the last year. But I cannot, for the life of me, meal plan worth a damn. This is where the bad decision making comes in, because usually I go out to eat. And I've gained some weight from it, especially after post wedding blues hit (we got married in June-- I managed to lose about 12 pounds during the month leading up to the wedding thanks to putting effort into it). Once my pants started getting a little too tight, I started to care about what I was eating again. But it's a never ending battle between my complete and utter laziness, my inability to decide what to eat, and then when I am health conscious, I eat a bag of raw vegetables for dinner because I can't decide what to cook.

Anywho, I'm supposed to be talking about beer, but today is National Drink Wine Day. So tonight I'm drinking this:

I had this at a wedding last summer. It definitely lives up to its name, and is very sweet. Tolerable for those who don't like bitter red wines. Like me.

I promise to review a beer this week! I purchased one on Monday that I'm really excited about, so hopefully it doesn't disappoint!
