My new boyfriend (my first!) came over to visit me for the evening. He was on his way back from Iowa and stopped just to see me (Happy Face!).

I totally wasn't expecting this and of course had nothing in the house for him to eat since I'm not the biggest of eaters anyway. He offered to take me out, but I was having none of that. I wanted to cook him something! It was just something I really needed to do.

Sooooo, I make a plan for dinner while he grabs a shower to clean up (all by himself, in case you're wondering :P)

Problem. His gigantic four wheel drive diesel beast truck was behind my little minivan, so I ask him to move it when he gets out.

Solution. He tells me the keys are in his coat, to just take his truck.

Me: Okaaaayyyy, are you sure???
Him: Sure, you've got a license, don't you?
Me (mouth gaping): Yes, but it's your baby! I can't drive that! What if I wreck it or something?
Him: I feel sorry for whoever you hit.

Okay, I can do this. After a couple of words of advice on it, I head out to the white beast truck (Maybe a Chevrolet? I think so) I reach up to the door handle (yes, up) open it and, thankful I'm wearing jeans and not a skirt, climb in.

I feel swallowed up by the inside of the vehicle. I find the power seat adjustment and move it up, way up so i can see over the steering wheel (he's 6'3" I'm 5'1").

Then I start it and adjust everything including my glasses, and suddenly I'm the road princess!

I now get why all you guys like your trucks. I was up so high I could see everything!!

When I climbed out at the local Super Wally World, the looks I got from the people in the parking lot were priceless! As you can imagine, little Asian girl getting out of big truck is not something you see every day! :)

I still can't believe he let me do that....I didn't think guys would let a girl behind the wheel of their prize possession. I guess it's not as important as I thought. Oh well.

And...I made a pineapple glaze for already made chicken fingers (thanks for the idea, Bailey!)
