Sushi Night
>> Friday, March 5, 2010
Sushi is my favorite!!! And consequently has become my family's favorite too. With the volume of sushi my family is able to consume, we do not go out to sushi restaurants often. Instead, we bring the restaurant experience home. Yum!
Dem Ugly Shoes
>> Thursday, March 4, 2010
At the height of Crocs' popularity a few years ago, I *swore* I was not going to buy these ugly shoes. Here I am now, eating my words. I still find them ugly. And you will not catch me wearing these Crocs clogs. The girls are another matter. This is their special co-op/park day shoes. The playgrounds where we do co-op has a sand base. Wearing these instead of rubber shoes makes much more sense. We bring home much less sand! LOL! Flipflops are not advisable footwear for running around. When we tried that once, the kids ended up ditching their flipflops and running around in bare foot. Did not like that option. You just never know what's been left there or something.
So, yeah, the girls are wearing crocs now. Practicality trumps style this time around.
There Will Be Blood

Got my blood drawn today for blood tests - a slew of routine stuff: cholesterol, sugar, electrolytes, etc. Happy to note that everything is within normal range. Got the results later in the day.
Wall-E
>> Tuesday, March 2, 2010
Her version of Wall-E. Wall-E's eyes are really dependent on what materials she has on hand.The soda bottles are sometimes exchanged for toilet paper rolls or even just rolled up paper. Aren't kids' imaginations awesome?!

It's been 40 days since his death... we got to visit his gravesite at the Sacramento Valley VA Cemetery today. There was mass and prayers at their house in the afternoon then we headed back down to home sweet home.
