Recent happenings.

Here are some things that have happened recently-

  • My husband ordered 6 pounds of passion fruit from Brazil. Then he made passion fruit mousse and sherbet. Fabulously delicious. If you haven't ever had passion fruit it is kind of like eating a lot of sweet tarts at one time. I had never seen one before there were a bunch of them in my kitchen. The inside is kind of like a pocket of orange tadpoles. I am in no way kidding.
  • Ethan's boss invited the two of us to go with he and his girlfriend on a business trip to Tulsa. I enjoyed myself. They really take care of those business travelers. His boss has some seriously hysterical stories. But then again he claims he has lived 3 life times in his short life. He honestly has. I was also informed I was invited to travel with him all the time since I pack cheese sticks with me.
  • My daughter found a dead sparrow. She loved him. He was put inside Miracle Whip bottle. She carried him around most of the day. Everybody that saw it reminded me that " They carry disease, that is so gross." Sometimes I wonder if I am the only adult that went through childhood before I became an adult. When you are a kid disease is not something that you worry about until adults pound it into your brain that the world is going to kill you unless you sit in your living room constantly sanitizing your hands. How often do you really get a close look at the coloring and markings on a sparrow? Enjoy- not obsess....
  • I was informed that "Hot dogs YUMMY!" about 12 times while I tried to read scriptures tonight.
  • Victor said "thank you Caleb" Caleb said:" thank you me".
  • I found a rubber shark on top of the fan blade.
  • I found Phebe's pants on top of the planet mobile. I think we have a throwing problem going on.
  • Naomi put an earth worm in her hair on purpose.
  • I have gained a serious respect/fear of spearmint. Just because I can see its boundaries does not mean the plant accepts them.

I love my house.

  1. I think letting Naomi have a dead sparrow is cool. As long as it is in the jar (obviously don't let her lick it, or anything!) statistically there are probably more Pathogenic germs on the average cell phone.

    In future (too late now!) when you want to plant an herb that spreads--mint or horseradish, for example, cut the bottom off a 5 gallon bucket, and sink it in your garden, and plant inside it, so they have a barrier between them and the rest of the world!

    We miss you guys.

  2. 1. Passion fruit is delicious. I was jealous when I heard you had it.
    2. I think its not popular in the US cause when its ripe it looks disgusting. (orange tadpoles is a good description)
