As a reminder

For those of you who don't read my entire posts and didn't get to the end of the rant to read that I'm hosting a "COMMENT CONTEST" I'm going to reiterate:

Every time you leave a comment between now and April 15th, you will be entered into a drawing to WIN a package of handmade goods, customized to the winner.

Everybody likes to WIN FREE stuff, right?

Neighbors, Cousins, Friends

Raph and I were pretty psyched when my cousin and his girlfriend started looking for houses in our area. Then they bought one less than two miles from our house. YES! They been in for a few months already but we finally got the camera out yesterday. Amazingly, I think my cousin actually like food more than we do, which works out for every body because he gets to cook phenomenal meals, like this lasagna (which for the record ain't your standard veggie lasagna) and we get to eat it.

Tamara can't seem to get enough of Makili






and Makili can't seem to get enough of their cat, Snowball (yes they seem to have a sense of humor with naming their black cat). Tamara, the good sport, carries him after the cat, all over the house.




We are planning on sharing gardening duties this summer on our property, which is pretty exciting. God I can't wait!
