Tonight, Mia got her pasta at Paces and took a bite... then, fork still in her hand, the waiter came to whisk it away... then brought a new bowl of pasta... then came to spirit that one away, too...  Did I mention all this happened about an hour after we sat down, after I'd ordered and eaten dessert, then ordered and eaten a plate of nachos?  ah, ( Read more... )

sledding is superawesomefantastic, even if it does instill in me both fear of death and what will no doubt be lovely bruises...

I bought Cadbury creme eggs today and life is glorious.
