I wish I had cable at a time like this. Or Monica home. Or Jenaca living close by.

My husband is at some dumb (lightning bolt) Priesthood meeting, and now there's no one to eat pizza with. I'm so lonesome that I'm eating it straight off the cutting board. And with no cable television and no chick flicks in the house, I'm stuck watching The Man Who Knew Too Little. I don't actually know what's going on in the movie, as I'm distracted with this post, but Bill Murray is funny even without a story line.

Also, I'm so lonesome that I'm about to brag about the pizza I made. It's sundried tomatoes baked on homemade wheat dough, topped with fresh spinach leaves, balsalmic and shaved parmesan. Oh. Yum.

And another view...

evidence that I'm a grown-up

I make this food and enjoy eating it, rather than throw up at the sight of it.


Chunky Vegetable Paella:
zuchini, diced tomato, onion, red pepper, and white beans all over brown rice.

Go Royals!

How ironic, to reunite with high school friends... at the mall.

TaVaun and I found Jaime (or she found us?) on facebook. Shortly after, Jaime and TaVaun decided to get together for lunch, and because all of the plans were made on each other's facebook walls - I found out about it and invited myself along!

My how we've changed - and for the better, too!



Afterwards, TaVaun came to my place and I was able to show off my apartment to her. I wish I took some pictures of Nevaeh chasing Rob around the apartment. I like her so much! She's the cute one with pigtales in the picture. Here's another cute one of Ava, Jaime's cute little girl. I was babyless.
