So, it's been a while, eh? June 30th since our last post. Oh well…rather than a bunch of lame excuses and promises of more posts, I'm just gonna pretend nothing happened. (Tina, this is for you)
Tonight we hosted our International Dinner Club at our place and had an asado with 13 people. Emily is […]

I am always stuck by their stories. Stories of their previous lives in their countries, stories […]

This weekend we went to Chicago and visited Greg and Lauren (yay!) and had a great time. It ended with a Sun nite stay downtown. And, my most favorite part was… the wind that nearly blew my face off. No, it wasn't that. It was the Ghiradelli's hot cocoa that […]
