I live on the West coast so the Lost finale<\/strong> last night was on pretty late! We stayed up and watched the whole thing (recap show and finale) and didn’t get to bed until after 11:30! On a school night! \ud83d\ude42 I will be posting my thoughts on the finale at the end of this post, so if you wish to AVOID that, skip the bottom of the post!<\/p>\n

Dinner last night was filling and delicious. Michael made up the rest of the flank steak from Friday night. What I love about flank steak is that we can use it for fajitas AND eat it like a normal steak.<\/p>\n

I made a salad.<\/p>\n

-Red leaf lettuce<\/span><\/p>\n

-Green leaf lettuce<\/span><\/p>\n

-Spinach<\/span><\/p>\n

-Cauliflower<\/span><\/p>\n

-Broccoli<\/span><\/p>\n

-Croutons<\/span><\/p>\n

-Chickpeas<\/span><\/p>\n

-Blue Cheese for Michael<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Am I the only one that can eat croutons like they are crackers??<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I also baked some sweet potatoes….or so I thought! I noticed right away that they looked different from each other.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I didn’t really pay attention to it. I figured they were both sweet potatoes. I washed them, cut the tips off, and rubbed olive oil on them. Baked in the oven at 400 degrees for about 45 minutes.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n


\n<\/a>Dinner was really tasty. I like the combination of the sweet potato and steak.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Except I didn’t eat a sweet potato. Michael thinks I got a yam by mistake. I have no idea! I don’t know that I’ve ever eaten a yam! So what the heck did I buy??<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Potato #1<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Potato #2<\/p><\/div>\n

Any thoughts? What did I buy??<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

And now for LOST….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Watching Lost<\/p><\/div>\n

*******LOST SPOILER ALERT*******<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the first season, I was convinced that the Island was the afterlife and they were trapped in it. As the series kind of evolved, I stopped thinking that because the story-lines were just so crazy…But after the finale last night I’m kind of going back to my original idea.<\/p>\n

Michael had a good theory, too. He thought that the finale of last season — where the bomb went off and all of a sudden there was a third reality– was when everyone died. So that means that this final season was the only season where they were living in the “Afterlife.”<\/p>\n

I liked that theory too. And it made me feel like the story-lines where they were in this alternate life meant that they were trying to find each other again so they could all rest in peace.<\/p>\n

I was a big Lost fan from the beginning. I thought the show was exciting and well written. It had the feel of a big screen action movie, but also the feel of David Lynch’s “Twin Peaks.” It felt very Lynchian to me. I loved the mystery of the island. The last season was kind of lame for me, so I was disappointed and not expecting a whole lot from the finale. But all in all, the ending was a good one.<\/p>\n

I’m a bit sad that it’s over. 6 years is a long investment. I loved Friends, Seinfeld, the Sopranos and Six Feet Under…all canceled and I was left with a tiny hole. They were such great shows!<\/p>\n

I’m a bit tired today. I have a coffee to get me through. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
