10 year high school reunion

I went to my 10 year high school reunion this weekend. It was tons of fun. I've always thought ours was a particularly lovely class, and it was really grand seeing everyone who was there. I missed those who weren't.




Some of us have become parents.


Some of us remain children.

Out of the frying pan...


Linton's last day of school was Wednesday, and today (Friday) he's back in the classroom with 32 students for an all day, three week summer session. Well, having Thursday off certainly rocked, but it wasn't quite a summer break!

Birthday part two

Will the birthday posts ever end? Maybe; maybe not.

Happy birthday, Linton!

What's this? Chocolaty dishes? Could there be cake?

Follow the balloons and find out!

You better bring your knife along, just in case.



Cake! You found cake! Happy birthday, Linton. I love you!!!

Tasties

Inspired by cousin Andy, this has been on my to-try list for over a year. However, I found the recipe completely intimidating. Homemade ginger ale, followed by instructions to macerate fruit to make a consomme - what does it all mean?? But recently I got over it and took my bad self to the kitchen. Holy Toledo it was so worth it.


After having the little cocktail around for just a day it has been dubbed a 'tasty'. You've got to try this thing; go make some for yourself. Better yet come over to my house and save yourself the trouble.
