hey hazel,

how you doin'?

food co-op

my sisters friends are sweeping in from all sides to save the day.
gloria told me about the "glorious" food co-op http://www.bountifulbaskets.org/
and then meg fixed my technical difficulties with blogger...
thank you so much girls (and eliza for sharing her friends)!!
***
saturday i drove to blackfoot to pick up my discounted fresh delectable produce because i missed the idaho falls deadline... but it was still worth it.  for only $15 i came home with a laundry basket full of vegies and fruit.  go check it out and see if this cool service is offered in your area!
***
i'm eating asparagus as i type this. yum.  does anyone else eat mayonnaise with their asparagus?  hey, don't knock it till you try it.  also, does anybody have a good recipe for cauliflower?  i'm thinking of boiling and smashing it like mashed potatoes...

the food pick up

technical difficulties

the universe does not want me to blog.
firstly, i finally fixed my camera lense... i am a very visual person and wouldn't dream of posting without the accompaniment of photos. now that i am back with camera in hand, and thoughts swirling in my noggen, and events to be recorded, blogger is not letting me post them.
dang you blogger.
i'm about ready to break up with you and have a serious rebound with typepad.
***
hopefully soon i will be back in the saddle.
i hate getting bucked off my own blog,
but i'll keep trying to get on...
yippee ki-yay.

s'il vous plait?

do you think i could get papa bear to abandon his carhartt gear for a day to put on some of these threads?
a girl can dream.
***
of course, i shouldn't be talking,
my uniform of frumpiness is no turn-on either.

readeth

to zion

saturday i ran to utah with charlie for some special family events.
a few of my fabulous aunts and cousins watched my baby and three other chillens' while we went to the draper temple for a wedding. afterwards, they had my cheeks hurting with their hilarious crazy antics and stories... i adore my family, and there is never a dull moment when i'm with them.
there is some debate amongst the baby whisperers as to who their inner bewitched character is... i'll just let them duke it out for the best spot of sabrina's cool cousin, serena.
are you endora, aunt clara, sabrina, or serena?
high on a mountain top...
so glad i was able to fit in a quick lunch with a dear friend.
best quotes of the weekend-
"there's so much opportunity in this grand ol' country of america."
- matthew case

"hurs can weaw it, if hurs can fit into it."

-lillia smith
